To reduce the risk of eye and other injury
insure that bystanders are at least
50 feet (15 m) away. Stop the engine
and cutting tool immediately if you are
approached.
Start and operate your edger without
assistance. For specific starting
instructions, see the appropriate section
of your manual.
Place the edger on firm ground or other
solid surface in an open area. Maintain a
good balance and secure footing.
To reduce the risk of injury from loss of
control, be absolutely sure that the
cutting tool is clear of you and all other
obstructions and objects, including the
ground, because when the engine starts
at starting-throttle, engine speed will be
fast enough for the clutch to engage and
turn the cutting tool.

When you pull the starter grip, don't
wrap the starter rope around your hand.
Do not allow the grip to snap back, but
guide the starter rope to rewind properly.
Failure to follow this procedure may
result in injury to hand or fingers and
may damage the starter mechanism.
Working Conditions
Operate and start your edger only
outdoors in a well ventilated area.
!
Warning!
Your edger produces toxic
exhaust fumes as soon as
the engine is running.
These gases (e.g.
carbonmonoxide) may be
colourless and odourless.
To reduce the risk of serious or fatal
injury from inhaling toxic fumes, never
run the edger indoors or in poorly
ventilated locations.

Warning!
Use of this product can generate dust
and fumes containing chemicals known
to cause respiratory disease, cancer,
birth defects, or other reproductive
harm. If you are unfamiliar with the risks
associated with the particular dust or
fume at issue, consult your employer,
governmental agencies such as OSHA
and NIOSH and other sources on
hazardous materials. California and
some other authorities, for instance,

known to cause cancer, reproductive
toxicity, etc.
Control dust and fumes at the source
where possible. In this regard use good
work practices and follow the
recommendations of OSHA/NIOSH and
occupational and trade associations.
When the inhalation of toxic dust and
fumes cannot be eliminated, the
operator and any bystanders should
always wear a respirator approved by
NIOSH/MSHA for the type of dust and /
or fumes encountered.
