Checking Unit Condition

WARNING!
A cutting attachment shield or other protective device is no guarantee of protection against ricochet. YOU MUST ALWAYS
GUARD AGAINST FLYING DEBRIS!
Use only authorized Shindaiwa parts and accessories with your
Shindaiwa trimmer or brushcutter. Do not make modifications to
this unit without the written approval of Shindaiwa, Inc.
NEVER operate the unit with the cutting attachment shield or
other protective devices (harness, ignition switch, blade retention
clip, etc.) removed!
ALWAYS make sure the cutting attachment is properly installed
and firmly tightened before operation.
NEVER use a cracked or warped cutting attachment: If a properly
installed attachment vibrates, replace the attachment with a new
one and re-check.
ALWAYS stop the engine immediately and check for damage if
you strike a foreign object or if the unit becomes tangled. Do not
operate with broken or damaged equipment.
NEVER allow the engine to run at high RPM without a load. Do-
ing so could damage the engine.
NEVER operate a unit with worn or damaged fasteners or attach-
ment holders.
NEVER cut with a dull blade. Doing so will increase the risk of
blade thrust and may also cause equipment damage.
IMPORTANT!
