Hazard Zone
Keep children, bystanders,
and animals
30 feet (10 meters) away. Stop unit im-
mediately if approached.
• Dress properly.
Always wear safety
glasses or similar eye protection
when operating,
or performing
main-
tenance on your unit (safety glasses
are available).
Eye protection
should be marked Z87.
• Always wear face or dust mask if op-
eration is dusty.
• Always wear heavy, long pants, long
sleeves, boots, and gloves.
• Always wear foot protection.
Do not
go barefoot or wear sandals.
• Secure hair above shoulder
length.
Secure or remove
loose clothing or
clothing with loosely hanging ties,
straps, tassels, etc. They can be
caught in moving parts.
• Being fully covered also helps pro-
tect you from debris and pieces of
toxic plants thrown by spinning
tines.
• Stay alert.
Do not operate when you
are tired, ill, upset, or under the influ-
ence of alcohol, drugs, or medica-
tion. Watch what you are doing; use
common sense.
• Wear hearing protection.
• Never start or run inside a closed
room or building. Breathing
exhaust
fumes can kill.
• Keep handles free of oil and fuel.
• Never operate the cultivator without
the tire cover in place and properly
secured.
FUEL SAFETY
(for gas powerheads)
• Mix and pour fuel outdoors.
• Keep away from sparks or flames.
• Use a container
approved
for fuel.
• Do not smoke or allow smoking near
fuel or the powerhead.
• Avoid spilling fuel or oil. Wipe up all
fuel spills before starting the power-
head.
• Move at least 10 feet (3 meters)
away from fueling site before start-
ing powerhead
engine.
• Stop engine and allow to cool before
removing fuel cap.
• Remove fuel cap slowly.
• Store unit and fuel in an area where
fuel vapors cannot reach sparks or
open flames from water heaters,
electric motors or switches, fur-
Races, etc.
ELECTRICAL
SAFETY
(for electric
powerheads)
_,WARNING:
Avoid a dangerous
environment.
To reduce the risk of
electrical
shock, do not use in rain, in
damp or wet locations,
or around
swimming
pools, hot tubs, etc.
Do not
expose
to snow, rain, or water to avoid
the possibility
of electrical
shock.
Do
not handle extension
cord plug or unit
with wet hands.
• Use only a voltage supply as shown
on the nameplate
of the unit.
• Avoid dangerous
situations.
Do not
use in presence of flammable
liquids
or gases to avoid creating a fire or
explosion
and/or causing damage to
unit.
• Avoid dangerous
environments.
Do
not use in unventilated
areas or
where dust or explosive
vapors can
build up.
• To reduce the risk of electrical
shock, use extension
cords specifi-
cally marked as suitable for outdoor
appliances.
The electrical
rating of
the cord must not be less than the
rating of the unit. The cord must be
marked with the suffix "W-A" (in Can-
ada, "W"). Make sure your extension
cord is in good condition.
Inspect ex-
tension cord before use and replace
if damaged.
An undersized
exten-
sion cord will cause a drop in line
voltage resulting
in loss of power
and overheating.
If in doubt, use the
next heavier gauge. The smaller the
gauge number, the heavier the cord.
• Do not use multiple cords.
• The powerhead
may have a polarized
plug (one blade is wider than the oth-
er); if so, it will require the use of a po-
larized extension cord. The appliance
plug will fit into a polarized extension
cord only one way. If the plug does
not fit fully into the extension cord, re-
verse the plug. If the plug still does
not fit, obtain a correct polarized ex-
tension cord. A polarized extension
cord will require the use of a polarized
wall outlet. This plug will fit into the po-
larized wall outlet only one way. If
plug does not fit fully into the wall out-
let, reverse the plug. If it still does not
fit, contact a qualified electrician to
