7.4.4 Blade thrust
•
A blade thrust is a sudden movement of the product
to the side, forward or rearward. A blade thrust
occurs when the grass blade or saw blade hits an
object that cannot be cut. In areas where it is not
easy to see the material being cut the risk of blade
thrust increases.
•
When a blade thrust occurs, there is a risk that the
product or the operator moves out of position. A
blade that moves can hit bystanders and there is a
risk of injuries.
•
If a blade is bent, has cracks, is broken or damaged,
discard the blade.
•
Use a sharp blade. The risk of blade thrust
increases when a blade is not sharp.
7.5 To sharpen grass cutters and grass blades
1. Sharpen grass cutters and grass blades with a
single-cut flat file.
2. Sharpen all edges of the grass cutters and blades
equally to keep the balance.
