Correct handling of the tool
WARNING:
Always position the tool on your
right-hand side. Correct positioning of the tool allows
for maximum control and will reduce the risk of seri-
ous personal injury caused by kickback.
WARNING:
Be extremely careful to maintain
control of the tool at all times. Do not allow the
tool to be deflected toward you or anyone in the
work vicinity. Failure to keep control of the tool
could result in serious injury to the bystander and the
operator.
WARNING:
To avoid accident, leave more
than 15m (50 ft) distance between operators when
two or more operators work in one area. Also,
arrange a person to observe the distance between
operators. If someone or an animal enters the
working area, immediately stop the operation.
CAUTION:
If the cutting tool accidentally
impacts a rock or hard object during operation,
stop the tool and inspect for any damage. If the
cutting tool is damaged, replace it immediately.
Use of a damaged cutting tool may result in serious
personal injury.
CAUTION:
Remove the blade cover from the
cutter blade when cutting the grass.
Correct positioning and handling allow optimum control
and reduce the risk of injury caused by kickback.
