Be Aware of the Working Environment
Avoid long-term operation
in very hot or very cold
weather.
Make sure bystanders or observers
outside the 50-foot “danger zone”
wear eye protection.
Be extremely careful
of slippery terrain,
especially during rainy
weather.
Always make sure the ap-
propriate cutting attachment
shield is correctly installed.
If contact is made with a hard
object, stop the engine and
inspect the cutting attachment
for damage.
When operating in rocky terrain
or near electric wires or fences, use
extreme caution to avoid contact-
ing such items with the cutting
attachment.
Be constantly alert for objects
and debris that could be thrown
either from the rotating cutting
attachment or bounced from a
hard surface.
Reduce the risk of
bystanders being struck
by flying debris. Make
sure no one is within 50
feet (15 meters)—that’s
about 16 paces—of an
operating attachment.
