 Keep all parts of your body away from any moving parts
and all hot surfaces of the unit.
 Wear a face filter mask in dusty conditions to reduce the
risk of injury associated with the inhalation of dust.
 Check the work area before each use. Remove all objects
such as rocks, broken glass, nails, wire, or string which
can be thrown or become entangled in the machine.
 Keep firm footing and balance. Do not overreach. Over-
reaching can result in loss of balance or exposure to hot
surfaces.
 Before storing, allow the engine to cool for at least
30 minutes.
 Empty fuel tank into a container approved for gasoline

a vehicle.
 Store fuel in a container approved for gasoline.

Operator's Manual.
 Inspect the unit before each use for loose fasteners, fuel
leaks, etc. Replace damaged parts.

engine and make certain all moving parts have stopped.
Disconnect the spark plug wire, and keep the wire away
from the plug to prevent starting.
 We recommend taking your equipment to a qualified
