Important Safety
Information
General
A handheld edger is a high-speed, fast-
cutting power tool, not a toy. For your
own safety and the safety of others, read
and be sure you understand all of the
safety precautions contained in this
Owner's Manual before operating the
handheld edger. Retain the Owner's
Manual, and make it available to all per-
sons who will be using the handheld
edger. Periodically, review the manual to
refresh your understanding of the safety
instructions contained in it.
Careless or improper use can cause
● ●
serious or fatal injury.
Observe the safety instructions con-
tained in this manual as well as all
applicable governmental and work-
place safety standards, regulations
and ordinances. Your authorized
Kawasaki dealer can show you how to
operate your handheld edger properly.
Contact with rotating cutting blade
● ●
will cause severe injury.
While edging, keep hands and feet
away from the cutting blade at all
times.
The rotating cutting blade can hurl
● ●
objects, causing injury.
Keep bystanders, children and ani-
mals at least 15 m (50 feet) away
while the handheld edger is in use.
Never use a handheld edger in areas
where the blade may strike a hard for-
eign object, such as stone. Striking a
hard object can damage the handheld
edger, and may crack, chip or even
break off cutting blade. Flying blade
pieces can cause severe or fatal
injury.
Do not allow children to operate the
● ●
handheld edger.
Operators must have sufficient size,
strength and maturity to be able to lift
and operate the handheld edger cor-
rectly for extended periods of use.
They must also be able to read, under-
stand and follow the safety instructions
in this manual.
Exhaust fumes contain poisonous
● ●
carbon monoxide gas.
Operate your handheld edger only out-
doors in a well-ventilated area. Stop
the engine immediately if exhaust
fumes cause you to experience symp-
toms of headache or nausea.
