blood vessel or nerve damage
in the
fingers, hands, and joints of people
prone to circulation
disorders
or ab-
normal swellings.

numbness,
pain, loss of strength,
change in skin color or texture, or loss
of feeling in the fingers, hands, or
joints, discontinue
the use of this tool
and seek medical attention. An anti-

system does not guarantee
the avoidance
of these problems.

ers who operate power tools on a con-
tinual and regular basis must monitor
closely their physical condition
and the
condition of this tool.
SPECIAL
NOTICE:
This unit is
equipped
with a temperature
limiting
muffler and spark arresting screen
which meets the requirements
of Cali-
fornia Codes 4442 and 4443.
All U.S.
forest land and the states of California,
Idaho, Maine, Minnesota,
New Jersey,
Oregon, and Washington
require by
law that many internal combustion
en-
gines be equipped
with a spark arrest-
ing screen.
If you operate in a locale
where such regulations
exist, you are
legally responsible
for maintaining
the
operating
condition of these parts.
Failure to do so is a violation of the
law. For normal homeowner
use, the
muffler and spark arresting screen will
not require any service. After 50 hours
of use, we recommend
that your muf-
fler be serviced or replaced by a
Sears Service Center.
