DANGER ZONE
Careless operation, misuse, improper configuration or assembly, or use of unapproved cutting
heads and work attachments can result in serious or fatal injuries to operator and bystanders.
Flying debris can cause serious eye injury, loss of sight, or property damage. You must read,
understand, and follow all safety and operating instructions in this safety manual, in your unit’s
Operator’s Manual, the Attachment Operator’s Manual, and in the Installation Instructions for
any kit or accessory being installed before using this equipment.
• ALWAYS maintain a minimum safety zone of 50 feet (15 meters) from where you are
working. Don’t allow others to enter the safety zone unless you have shut the unit off and
the cutting/work attachment has completely stopped moving.
• ALWAYS wear appropriate personal protective equipment to protect eyes, face, hearing,
and hands.
• ALWAYS wear protective clothing to minimize risk of cuts, scrapes, and burns, and wear
sturdy shoes or work boots with non-slip soles.
• ALWAYS safety-check equipment carefully before use.
• NEVER operate with missing, broken, or loose parts.
• NEVER operate a unit with a fuel leak of any kind.
• ALWAYS clear the intended cutting/work area of debris such as wire, stones, wood, cans,
broken glass, and other objects which could be thrown, become entangled, or damage the
cutting head/work attachment.
• ALWAYS check for hidden hazards such as sprinkler
heads, metal stakes, or other similar objects that
could break the cutting line or damage the cutting/
work attachment. Stay clear of these hazards when
operating your unit to minimize risk of injury from
flying debris and loss of control, and to prevent
equipment damage.
• ALWAYS check the ground for surface obstacles
and other trip hazards, and be prepared for the
terrain when moving around the work area.
