GRASS TRIMMER SAFETY WARNINGS
Do not use the machine in bad weather conditions, es-
pecially when there is a risk of lightning. This decreases
the risk of being struck by lightning.
Thoroughly inspect the area for wildlife where the machine
is to be used. Wildlife may be injured by the machine
during operation.
Thoroughly inspect the area where the machine is to be
used and remove all stones, sticks, wires, bones, and
other foreign objects. Thrown objects can cause personal
injury.
Before using the machine, always visually inspect to see
that the cutter or blade and the cutter or blade assembly
are not damaged. Damaged parts increase the risk of
injury.
Follow instructions for changing accessories. Improperly
tightened blade securing nuts or bolts may either damage
the blade or result in it becoming detached.
Wear eye, ear, head and hand protection. Adequate
protective equipment will reduce personal injury by flying
debris or accidental contact with the cutting line or blade.
While operating the machine, always wear non-slip and
protective footwear. Do not operate the machine when
barefoot or wearing open sandals. This reduces the chance
of injury to the feet from contact with the moving cutters
or lines.
While operating the machine, always wear long trousers.
Exposed skin increases the likelihood of injury from thrown
objects.
Keep bystanders away while operating the machine.
Thrown debris can result in serious personal injury.
Always use two hands when operating the machine.
Holding the machine with both hands will avoid loss of
control.
Hold the machine by the insulated gripping surfaces
only, because the cutting line or blade may contact hid-
den wiring. 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.
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.
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.
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, slipping and falling
which may result in personal injury.
Keep all parts of the body away from the cutter, line or
blade when the machine is operating. Before you start the
machine, make sure the cutter, line or blade is not con-
tacting anything. A moment of inattention while operating
the machine may result in injury to yourself or others.
When cutting brush or saplings that are under tension, be
alert for spring back. When the tension in the wood fibers
is released, the brush or sapling may strike the operator
and/or throw the machine out of control.
Use extreme caution when cutting brush and saplings.
The slender material may catch the blade and be whipped
toward you or pull you off balance.
Do not operate the machine above waist height. This helps
prevent unintended cutter or blade contact and enables
better control of the machine in unexpected situations.
Maintain control of the machine and do not touch cutters,
lines or blades and other hazardous moving parts while
they are still in motion. This reduces the risk of injury from
moving parts.
Carry the machine with the machine switched off and
away from your body. Proper handling of the machine will
reduce the likelihood of accidental contact with a moving
cutter, line or blade.
Only use replacement cutters, lines, cutting heads and
blades specified by the manufacturer. Incorrect replace-
ment parts may increase the risk of breakage and injury.
When clearing jammed material or servicing the ma-
chine, make sure the switch is off and the battery pack
is removed. Unexpected starting of the machine while
clearing jammed material or servicing may result in seri-
ous personal injury.
