Choosing the Correct Blade
WARNING
The type of Blade used MUST be matched to the type and size of material cut. An improper or dull blade can cause
serious personal injury. Blades MUST be sharp. Dull blades increase the chance of kick out and injury to yourself
and bystanders.
Plastic/Nylon Blades may be used where ever the nylon line head
is used. DO NOT use this blade for heavy weeds or brush!
8 Tooth Grass and Weed Blade is designed for grass, garden debris and
thick weeds up to 19 mm (3/4”) diameter. DO NOT use this blade for
brush or heavy woody growth.
80 Tooth Brush Blade is designed for cutting brush and woody growth
up to 64 mm (1/2 in.) diameter.
22 Tooth Clearing Blade is designed for dense thickets and saplings
up to 64 mm (2-1/2 in.) diameter.
Use Shoulder/Waist Harness Use of the Shoulder/Waist Harness is
recommended for ALL Trimmer/Brush Cutter use, not just Blade oper-
ation. The Shoulder/Waist Harness when used in a trimming operation
with nylon line head suspends the trimmer from the operator's shoulder
and reduces operator fatigue.
During blade operation, the same fatigue reduction is achieved. Safety
to the operator is also enhanced by reducing the possibility of blade
contact with the operator's hands and feet by restricting trimmer move-
ment.
