■ CONTROLLING BLADE THRUST
• Blade thrust can cause serious
personal injury. Carefully study this
section. It is important that you
understand what causes blade thrust,
how you can reduce the chance of
blade thrust and how you can remain in
control of the unit if blade thrust does
occur.
1. What causes blade thrust:
• Blade thrust can occur when the
moving blade contacts an object that it
cannot cut. This contact causes the
blade to stop for an instant and then
suddenly move or ”bounce” away from
the object that was hit. The operator
can lose control of the unit and the
blade can cause serious personal injury
to the operator or any person nearby if
the blade contacts any part of the body.
2.
How you can reduce the chance of blade
thrust:
a. Recognize that blade thrust can
happen. By understanding and
knowing about bounce, you can
help eliminate the element of
surprise.
b. Cut fibrous weeds and grass
only. Do not let the blade contact
materials it cannot cut such as hard,
woody vines and brush or rocks,
fences, metal, etc
c. Be extra prepared for blade thrust if
you must cut where you cannot see
the blade making contact such as in
