DANGER
If the blade-brake clutch system is not working,
the blade will continue to rotate when you release
the blade-control bar. You could come into contact
with blade, causing serious injury.
• Ensure that the blade brake clutch works
properly before each use.
• Never use a machine equipped with a
blade-brake clutch that has an inoperative
safety system.
• If the safety system on your machine does
not operate properly, take it to an Authorized
Service Dealer for repair.
