warning signs should be placed around the
perimeter of the area. When work is to be
performed simultaneously by two or more
persons, care should also be taken to constantly
look around or otherwise check for the presence
and locations of other people working so as to
maintain a distance between each person
sufficient to ensure safety.
2. Check the condition of working area to avoid
any accident by hitting hidden obstacles such as
stumps, stones, cans, or broken grass.
IMPORTANT
Remove any obstacle before beginning work.
3. Inspect the entire unit for loose fasteners and
fuel leakage. Make sure that the cutting
attachment is properly installed and securely
fastened.
4. Be sure the debris guard is firmly attached in
place.
5. If the cutting head is the metal blade, use the
shoulder strap. Adjust the strap for comfort
before starting the engine. The strap should be
adjusted so the left hand can comfortably hold
the handlebar grip approximately waist high.
