Be Aware of the Working Environment
Avoid long-term
operation in very hot
or very cold weather.
Be extremely careful
of slippery terrain,
especially during rainy
weather.
Be constantly alert for
objects and debris that
could be thrown either
from the rotating cutting
attachment or bounced
from a hard surface.
Safety Labels
4
Make sure
bystanders or
observers outside
the 15 meter
(50 feet) "danger
zone" wear eye
protection.
15 METERS (50
FEET)
Always make sure
the appropriate
cutting attachment
shield is correctly
installed.
If contact is made with a hard object,
stop the engine and inspect the cutting
attachment for damage.
Safety and Information Labels: Make sure all safety and in-
formation labels are undamaged, readable and up to date.
Immediately replace damaged or missing labels.
New labels are available through your local authorized
Shindaiwa dealer.
Reduce the risk of bystanders
being struck by flying debris. Make
sure no one is within 15 meters
(50 feet)— that's about 16 paces
of an operating attachment. Stop
immediately if a child, pet, or
person comes within a 15 meter
(50 feet)radius. Outside this
radius, there is still a risk of injury
from thrown objects.
Do not operate the unit
if the cutting attachment
shield is missing, loose,
or broken.
Beware of a coasting
blade when brushcutting or
edging. A coasting blade
can injure while it continues
to spin after the throttle
trigger is released or after
the engine is stopped.
ALWAYS clear your work area of
trash or hidden debris that could
be thrown back at you or toward
a bystander. When operating in
rocky terrain or near electric wires
or fences, use extreme caution to
avoid contacting such items with
the cutting attachment.
