 Keep all parts of your body away from any moving part.
 Do not touch area around the muffler or cylinder of the
unit; these parts get hot from operation.
 Always stop the engine and remove the spark plug wire
before making any adjustments or repairs except for
carburetor adjustments.
 Inspect the unit before each use for loose fasteners, fuel
leaks, etc. Replace any damaged parts before use.
 The string head will rotate during carburetor adjustments.
 It has been reported that vibrations from hand-held tools
may contribute to a condition called Raynaud's Syndrome
in certain individuals. Symptoms may include tingling,
numbness, and blanching of the fingers, usually apparent
upon exposure to cold. Hereditary factors, exposure to
cold and dampness, diet, smoking, and work practices
are all thought to contribute to the development of these
symptoms. It is presently unknown what, if any, vibrations
or extent of exposure may contribute to the condition.
There are measures that can be taken by the operator to
possibly reduce the effects of vibration:
a) Keep your body warm in cold weather. When operating
the unit wear gloves to keep your hands and wrists
warm. It is reported that cold weather is a major factor
contributing to Raynaud's Syndrome.
b) After each period of operation, exercise to
increase blood circulation.
c) Take frequent work breaks. Limit the amount of
exposure per day.
d) Keep the product well maintained, fasteners
tightened and worn parts replaced.
If you experience any of the symptoms of this condition,
immediately discontinue use and see your physician about
these symptoms.
 Mix and store fuel in a container approved for gasoline.
Do not smoke while fueling or mixing fuel.
 Mix fuel outdoors where there are no sparks or flames.
Wipe up any fuel spillage. Move 30 ft. away from refueling
site before starting engine.
 Stop the engine and allow to cool before refueling or
storing the unit.
 Allow the engine to cool; empty the fuel tank into a con-
tainer approved for gasoline and secure the unit from
moving before transporting in a vehicle.
