reduce the potential of
serious injury, cut only from
your left toward your right, in
the direction of the arrow on the
deflector shield. Cutting on the right
side of the deflector shield and moving
directionally towards your right will
cause the debris and objects to be
thrown predominately away from the
operator thereby reducing the risk of
personal injury to the operator, although
the risk of injury due to ricochet is not
lessened. Whereas cutting on the left-
side of the deflector shield or moving
directionally towards your left will cause
for comparatively more debris to be
thrown towards the operator thereby
increasing the risk of personal injury.
