Echo SB Safety Manual page 17

SRM/PAS/SB Blade Configuration
If you change the cutting attachment on your SRM, PAS,
or SB unit from nylon line head to a blade, you must also
install all of the parts required for blade operation.
These parts vary by type of blade being used, and may
include replacing the front handle with a U-Handle (See
the SRM/PAS/SB Set-Up Guide, Page 17)
DANGER
A trimmer-brushcutter unit equipped with a metal blade
can cause serious injuries if handled improperly.
ALWAYS use extreme care when carrying or handling
the unit to avoid contact with the cutting edges of the
blade. Echo recommends using the optional plastic
blade cover to protect yourself and others from acciden-
tal blade contact.
SRM/PAS/SB Blade Set-Up Guide
Use this configuration table as a guide for setting up
your unit with a blade. See the assembly instructions in
your Operator's Manual or Blade Conversion Kit for
specific information.
