Be Aware Of The Working Environment - Shindaiwa T2510 Operator's Manual

Be Aware of the Working Environment

Avoid long-term operation in very hot or
very cold weather.
Be extremely careful
of slippery terrain,
especially during
rainy weather.
If contact is made with a hard object,
stop the engine and inspect the cutting
attachment for damage.
Be constantly alert for objects and debris
that could be thrown either from the
rotating cutting attachment or bounced
from a hard surface.
Figure 27
Make sure bystanders or observers
outside the 15 meters "danger zone" wear
eye protection.
Reduce the risk of
bystanders being struck
by flying debris. Make
sure no one is within 15
meters - that's about 16
paces - of an operating
attachment.
Always make sure the
appropriate safety guard is
correctly installed.
Beware of a coasting blade when
brushcutting. A coasting blade can
injure while it continues to spin after the
throttle trigger is released or after the
engine is stopped.
When operating in rocky terrain or near
electric wires or fences, use extreme caution
to avoid contacting such items with the
cutting attachment.
