WARNING
■ Improper use of a grass cutting blade may
cause it to crack, chip or shatter. Thrown
blade fragments may seriously or fatally injure
the operator or bystanders. To reduce the risk
of injury:
► Avoid contact with hard or solid foreign
objects such as stones, glass, rocks or
pieces of metal.
► Inspect the grass cutting blade at regular,
short intervals for signs of damage. Do not
continue working with a damaged grass
cutting blade.
► Resharpen the grass cutting blade regularly
as described on its packaging or instruction
leaflet.
► Never attempt to cut woody material with
the grass cutting blade.
6.7.4 Using a Brush Knife
A brush knife is suitable for applications ranging
from cutting matted grass to clearing weeds, wild
growth and scrub brush.
► When mowing with a brush knife, sweep the
trimmer in a controlled manner, parallel to the
ground in front of you. To reduce the risk of
kickout, use the left side of the cutting blade.
► To cut wild growth and scrub, lower the rotat‐
ing brush knife down onto the growth to ach‐
ieve a chopping effect. Keep the brush knife
below waist height at all times.

► Inspect the brush knife at regular short
intervals for signs of damage. Do not con‐
tinue working with a damaged brush knife.
► Resharpen the brush knife regularly as
described on its packaging or instruction
leaflet.
► When cutting young saplings or other
woody materials up to 0.8 in. (2 cm) in
diameter, use the left side of the cutting
knife to avoid "kickout" situations.
► Never attempt to cut woody material with a
larger diameter, since the brush knife may
catch or jerk the unit forward.
► Exercise extreme caution when cutting wild
growth and scrub by lowering the rotating
brush knife down. The higher the cutting
attachment is off the ground, the greater the
risk of loss of control and of cuttings being
thrown sideways.
► Keep the brush knife below waist height at
all times.
