SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
•
Always pivot the front of the
blade guard 180° (fully upward)
so the guard does not swing
down unexpectedly, causing
serious injuries.
•
Always secure the front pivoted section of
the blade guard using the detent pin
(guards 26” and up).
•
Use extreme caution when
installing/removing parts of a guard or the
entire guard as guards can be extremely
heavy and may require installation/removal
at moderate heights.
•
DO NOT install or remove the blade guard
with the engine running.
•
Always use a blade guard that corresponds
with the blade size.
•
Inspect the blade guard and water tubes
prior to starting the equipment. Clean or
replace dirty/damaged components
immediately.

Always use caution when refueling.
•
Store all fuel in appropriate safety
containers.
•
DO NOT operate the equipment with a fuel
leak.
•
DO NOT fuel the equipment with the
engine running.
•
Let the engine cool prior to adding fuel.
•
Refer to the engine manual for
recommended fuels.
•
Always use appropriate fuels in cold
weather.
•
Move the equipment away from the
refueling area prior to starting the engine.
•
DO NOT smoke or expose fuel
to open flames when filling the
fuel tank or working with fuel
.

DO NOT use any starter substances or
starter fluids (e.g., starter fluid sprayed into
the air filter) when starting the engine using
a glow plug (applicable models). These
materials are extremely flammable and
explosive, and can melt parts or possibly
explode when used to help start the
engine.

•
The direct work area should not contain
buried or embedded electrical, gas, or
water lines that could be damaged and/or
cause personal injury while cutting.
