Extended-reach hedge trimmer safety warnings
a) Always use head protection when operating
the extended-reach hedge trimmer over‐
head. Falling debris can result in serious per‐
sonal injuries.
b) Always use two hands when operating the
extended-reach hedge trimmer. Hold the
extended-reach hedge trimmer with both

27.10 Grass Trimmer, Brush Cutter
and Brush Saw Safety Warn‐
ings
a) Do not use the machine in bad weather con‐
ditions, especially when there is a risk of
lightning. This increases the risk of being
struck by lightning.
b) Thoroughly inspect the area for wildlife
where the machine is to be used. Wildlife
may be injured by the machine during opera‐
tion.
c) Thoroughly inspect the area where the
machine is to be used and remove all
stones, sticks, wires, bones, and other for‐
eign objects. Thrown objects can cause per‐
sonal injury.
d) Before using the machine, always visually
inspect to see that the cutter or blade and
the cutter or blade assembly are not dam‐
aged. Damaged parts increase the risk of
injury.
e) Follow instructions for changing accessories.
Improperly tightened blade security nuts or
bolts may either damage the blade or result
in it becoming detached.
f) The rated rotational speed of the blade must
be at least equal to the maximum rotational
speed marked on the machine. Blades run‐
ning faster than their rated rotational speed
can break and fly apart.
g) Wear eye, ear, head and hand protection.

personal injury by flying debris or accidental
contact with the cutting line or blade.

safety footwear. Do not operate the machine
when barefoot or wearing open sandals. This
reduces the chance of injury to the feet from
contact with a moving cutter, line or blade.
j) While operating the machine, always wear
long trousers. Exposed skin increases the
likelihood of injury from thrown objects.
k) Keep bystanders away while operating the
machine. Thrown debris can result in serious
personal injury.
Always use two hands when operating the
l)
machine. Holding the machine with both
hands will avoid loss of control.
m) Hold the machine by insulated gripping sur‐
faces only, because the cutting line or blade
may contact hidden wiring or its own cord.
Cutting line or blades contacting a "live" wire
may make exposed metal parts of the
machine "live" and could give the operator an
electric shock.
n) Always keep proper footing and operate the
machine only when standing on the ground.
Slippery or unstable surfaces may cause a
loss of balance or control of the machine.
o) Do not operate the machine on excessively
steep slopes. This reduces the risk of loss of
control, slipping and falling which may result
in personal injury.
p) 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, slip‐
ping and falling which may result in personal
injury.
q) Keep all parts of the body away from the cut‐
ter, line or blade when the machine is operat‐
ing. Before you start the machine, make sure
the cutter, line or blade is not contacting any‐
thing. A moment of inattention while operat‐
ing the machine may result in injury to your‐
self or others.
