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

tinual and regular basis must monitor
closely their physical condition

SPECIAL
NOTICE:
This unit is
equipped with a temperature
limiting
muffler and spark arresting screen

of Cali-

forest land and the states of California,
Idaho, Maine, Minnesota,
New Jersey,
Oregon, and Washington

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

not require any service. After 50 hours
of use, we recommend
that your muf-
fler be serviced or replaced by a
Sears Service Center.
