Lawn trimmer and lawn edge trimmer safety
warnings
1
Do not use the machine in bad weather condi-
tions, especially when there is a risk of light-
ning. This decreases the risk of being struck by
lightning.
2
Thoroughly inspect the area for wildlife where
the machine is to be used. Wildlife may be injured
by the machine during operation.
3
Thoroughly inspect the area where the machine
is to be used and remove all stones, sticks,
wires, bones, and other foreign objects. Thrown
objects can cause personal injury.
4
Before using the machine, always visually in-
spect to see that the cutter and the cutter assem-
bly are not damaged. Damaged parts increase the
risk of injury.
5
Check the grass collector frequently for wear or
deterioration. A worn or damaged grass collector
may increase the risk of personal injury.
6
Keep guards in place. Guards must be in work-
ing order and be properly mounted. A guard that
is loose, damaged, or is not functioning correctly
may result in personal injury.
7
Keep all cooling air inlets clear of debris. Blocked
air inlets and debris may result in overheating or risk
of fire.
8
Wear eye protection and ear protection. Ade-
quate protective equipment will reduce personal in-
jury.
9
While operating the machine, always wear non-
slip and protective footwear. Do not operate the
machine when barefoot or wearing open san-
dals. This reduces the chance of injury to the feet
from contact with the moving cutter.
10 Always wear clothing such as trousers that cov-
ers the operator's legs while operating the ma-
chine. Contact with the moving cutter or line may
cause injury.
11 Keep bystanders away while operating the ma-
chine. Thrown debris can result in serious personal
injury.
12 Do not operate the machine above waist height.
This helps prevent unintended cutter contact and
enables better control of the machine in unexpected
situations.
13 Do not operate the machine in wet grass. Walk,
never run. This reduces the risk of slipping and fall-
ing which may result in personal injury.
14
14 Do not operate the machine on excessively
steep slopes. This reduces the risk of loss of con-
trol, slipping and falling which may result in personal
injury.
15 When working on slopes, always be sure of your
footing, always work across the face of slopes,
never up or down and exercise extreme caution
when changing direction. This reduces the risk of
loss of control, slipping and falling which may result
in personal injury.
16 Keep all power cords and cables away from cut-
ting area. Power cords or cables may be hidden in
hedges or bushes and can be accidentally cut or
damaged by the line or cutter.
17 Keep all parts of the body away from the moving
trimmer cutter or line. Do not clear material from
the machine until it has been disconnected from
the power source. The moving trimmer cutter or
line may result in serious personal injury.
18 Carry the machine with the machine switched
off and away from your body. Proper handling of
the machine will reduce the likelihood of accidental
contact with the moving line or cutter.
19 Only use replacement cutting heads and plastic
cutting lines and cutters specified by the manu-
facturer. Incorrect replacement parts may cause
loss of control, breakage and injury.
20 Do not replace the plastic lines or cutters with
metal wires or blades. Use of non-recommended
cutting devices may cause injury.
