Starting
WARNING
Start the engine at least 10 feet (3 m)
from the fueling spot, outdoors only.
For specific starting instructions, see the
appropriate section of your MultiEngine
and MultiTool manuals.
Place the power tool on firm ground or
other solid surface in an open area.
Maintain good balance and secure
footing.
WARNING
Always stand to one side of the unit to
avoid the risk of injury from contact with
the rotating MultiTool.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of injury from loss of
control, be absolutely sure that the
MultiTool 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
move the MultiTool. This may cause the
power tool to move toward the operator.
6
Once the engine has started,
immediately blip the throttle trigger,
which should release the starting throttle
and allow the engine to slow down to
idle.
WARNING
Your power tool is a one-person
machine. Do not allow other persons in
the general work area, even when
starting.
See also the safety precautions on
Starting in the instruction manual of the
MultiEngine.
During Operation
Holding and Controlling the Power Tool
Always hold the unit firmly with both
hands on the handles while you are
working. Wrap your fingers and thumbs
around the handles, keeping the
handles cradled between your thumb
and forefinger. Keep your hands in this
position to have your power tool under
control at all times.
WARNING
Never attempt to operate
your power tool with one
hand. Loss of control of
the power tool may result
in serious or fatal injury.
To reduce the risk of
injury, keep hands and
feet away from the
MultiTool. Never touch a
moving MultiTool with
your hand or any other
part of your body.
WARNING
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing
and balance at all times. Special care
must be taken in slippery conditions (wet
ground, snow) and in difficult, overgrown
terrain. Watch for hidden obstacles such
as tree stumps, roots and ditches to
avoid stumbling. For better footing, clear
away scrub and cuttings. Be extremely
cautious when working on slopes or
uneven ground.
Operate the power tool only at a normal
walking pace.
WARNING
To avoid the risk of injury from contact
with the rotating attachment, be
extremely cautious when pulling the
power tool toward you.
Be extremely cautious when changing
direction with the power tool – especially
on slopes.
