Use correct cutting attachment
Serious injury may result from the improper use of cutting attachment. Read and comply with all safety instructions
listed in this manual.
Use only cutting attachments recommended by YAMABIKO CORPORATION.
Use only nylon line cutting head. Do not use any type of metal blade.
Failure to do so could lead to an accident or serious injury.
Excessive nylon line beyond cut off knife could fly off when the nylon line cutting head starts rotating after adjust-
ment of nylon line length.
Failure to do so could lead to an accident or injury.
Do not trim near cars or pedestrians
Use extreme caution when operating over bare spots and gravel, because the line can throw small rock particles at high
speeds. The shield on the unit cannot stop objects which bounce or ricochet off hard surfaces.
Failure to do so could lead to an accident or serious injury.
Avoid wire
Do not trim in any area where there are broken strands of fencing wire. Remove the broken pieces of wire, or give the
area wide berth. Wear proper safety protection. Do not cut where you cannot see what the cutting device is cutting.
Failure to do so could lead to an accident or serious injury.
Use only flexible, non-metallic line recommended by YAMABIKO CORPORATION.
