Switch From Brushcutter To Trimmer; Replacing Cord - Texas BC 335-4 Original Instructions Manual

11. Kickback is a reaction that can occur when a rotating blade comes into contact with
something it cannot cut. This can cause the blade to stop for a moment, causing the
machine to recoil from the object it hit. This reaction can be so violent that control
over the machine can be lost. Kickback can occur without warning if the blade gets
stuck, loses speed or is impaired. This is more likely to occur in areas where it can
be hard to see the material to be cut.
12. Always ensure strap is properly adjusted.
13. Maintain a firm grip on both handles while blade is in use. Keep blade away from
body and under waist height.
