15 m away from the unit. If anyone 

approaches you, stop the engine and 

cutting attachment immediately.

Hot Surface – Contact with hot surface 

can cause serious burns.

Be careful of thrown objects.

Blade thrust may occur when the 

spinning blade contacts a solid object 

in the critical area. A dangerous 

reaction may occur causing the entire 

unit and operator to be thrust violently. 

This reaction is called blade thrust. As 

a result, the operator may lose control 

of the unit which may cause serious or 

fatal injury. Blade thrust is more likely 

to occur in areas where it is di

  cult to 

see the material to be cut.
