Discard blades that are bent, warped, cracked, broken or damaged in any way.Use a sharp blade. A dull blade is more likely
to snag and thrust.
Units with adjustable carburetors must be readjusted for blade use, otherwise serious engine damage can occur.
WARNING!
A standard grass trimmer unit with loop handle should NEVER be operated with blade-type attachments. For blade use,
the trimmer must be fitted with a bicycle-type handlebar or barrier bar that is located in front of the operator to reduce the
risk of the operator coming in contact with the cutting attachment. (Per ANSI B175.3). When using a blade, the unit must
be equipped with a harness or strap.
Shoulder Strap
Adjust the shoulder strap so the shoulder pad rests comfortably on the off-side
shoulder and the cutting path of the cutting attachment is parallel to the
ground. Tighten hanger screw.
WARNING!
Always wear a shoulder strap when operating this unit with a blade. A
shoulder strap is also recommended when using trimmer line.
Using a shoulder strap with a brush-cutter allows you to maintain proper
control of the unit and reduces fatigue during extended operation.
