Correct handling of the tool

WARNING:

Always position the tool on your 

right-hand side.

 Correct positioning of the tool allows 

for maximum control and will reduce the risk of seri-

ous personal injury caused by kickback.

WARNING:

Be extremely careful to maintain 

control of the tool at all times. Do not allow the tool to 

be deflected toward you or anyone in the work vicinity.

Failure to keep control of the tool could result in serious 

injury to the bystander and the operator.

WARNING:

To avoid accident, leave more 

than 15m (50 ft) distance between operators when 

two or more operators work in one area. Also, 

arrange a person to observe the distance between 

operators. If someone or an animal enters the 

working area, immediately stop the operation.

CAUTION:

If the cutting tool accidentally 

impacts a rock or hard object during operation, 

stop the tool and inspect for any damage. If the 

cutting tool is damaged, replace it immediately.

Use of a damaged cutting tool may result in serious 

personal injury.

CAUTION:

Remove the blade cover from the 

cutter blade when cutting the grass.

Correct positioning and handling allow optimum control 

and reduce the risk of injury caused by kickback.
