6 GRASS TRIMMER, BRUSH CUTTER AND
BRUSH SAW SAFETY WARNINGS
• Do not use the machine in bad weather conditions,
especially when there is a risk of lightning. This
decreases the risk of being struck by lightning.
• Thoroughly inspect the area for wildlife where the
machine is to be used. Wildlife may be injured by
the machine during operation.
• Thoroughly inspect the area where the machine is to
be used and remove all stones, sticks, wires, bones,
and other foreign objects. Thrown objects can cause
personal injury.
• Before using the machine, always visually inspect
to see that the cutter or blade and the cutter or
blade assembly are not damaged. Damaged parts
increase the risk of injury.
• Follow instructions for changing accessories.
Improperly tightened blade securing nuts or bolts
may either damage the blade or result in it
becoming detached.
• Wear eye, ear, head and hand protection. Adequate
protective equipment will reduce personal injury by
flying debris or accidental contact with the cutting
line or blade.
• While operating the machine, always wear non-
slip and protective footwear. Do not operate the
machine when barefoot or wearing open sandals.
This reduces the chance of injury to the feet from
contact with the moving cutters or lines.
• While operating the machine, always wear long
trousers. Exposed skin increases the likelihood of
injury from thrown objects.
• Keep bystanders away while operating the machine.
Thrown debris can result in serious personal injury.
• Always use two hands when operating the machine.
Holding the machine with both hands will avoid loss
of control.
• Hold the machine by the insulated gripping surfaces
only, because the cutting line or blade may contact
hidden wiring. Cutting line or blades contacting
a "live" wire may make exposed metal parts of
the machine "live" and could give the operator an
electric shock.
• Always keep proper footing and operate the
machine only when standing on the ground. Slippery
or unstable surfaces may cause a loss of balance or
control of the machine.
• Do not operate the machine on excessively
steep slopes. This reduces the risk of loss of
control,slipping and falling which may result in
personal injury.
• When working on slopes, always be sure of your
footing, always work across the face of slopes,
never up or down and exercise extreme caution
when changing direction. This reduces the risk of
loss of control, slipping and falling which may result
in personal injury.
• Keep all parts of the body away from the cutter,
line or blade when the machine is operating. Before
you start the machine, make sure the cutter, line
or blade is not contacting anything. A moment of
inattention while operating the machine may result
in injury to yourself or others.
• Do not operate the machine above waist height.
This helps prevent unintended cutter or blade
contact and enables better control of the machine
in unexpected situations.
• Maintain control of the machine and do not touch
cutters, lines or blades and other hazardous moving
parts while they are still in motion. This reduces the
risk of injury from moving parts.
