ECHO BRUSH BLADES
FOR SRM UNITS ONLY
ECHO BLADES
There are three types of ECHO Blades: knife, brush and clearing
blades. The ECHO products catalog lists the blade sizes available.
These blades must be in sharp condition for both safety and good
results. Have dull blades sharpened professionally or have them
replaced.
Follow the instructions on page 23 for cutting with a brush blade.
WARNING DANGER
Never cut brush with a dull blade. Dullness increases the
chance the blade may kick out of a cut.
If a sapling or shrub binds the blade, do not use the blade as a lever
to free the bind, because this will cause blade failure. Instead, shut
off the engine and push the sapling or shrub to free the blade. Do
not use a cracked or damaged blade.

Avoid tine-walking during starting. Tine-walking is the forward

use some means of preventing possible contact of the tines with any
object.
