SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES

After engine stops, keep rotating blade in heavy
grass or pulpy weeds until it stops.
Do not operate the brush cutter unless the blade
guard is firmly secured in place and in good
condition.
Use heavy gloves while installing or removing blades.
Always stop the engine and remove the spark plug
wire before attempting to remove any obstruction
caught or jammed in the blade or before removing
and installing the blade.
Do not attempt to touch or stop the blade when it is
rotating.
A coasting blade can cause injury while it continues
to spin after the engine is stopped or throttle trigger
released. Maintain proper control until the blade has
completely stopped rotating.
Replace any blade that has been damaged. Always
make sure blade is installed correctly and securely
fastened before each use.
Use only the manufacturer's replacement Tri-Arc

Never use the Tri-Arc blade to cut woody brushes.
Exercise extreme caution when using the blade with
this unit. Blade thrust is the reaction that may occur
when the spinning blade contacts anything it cannot
cut. This contact may cause the blade to stop for
an instant, and suddenly "thrust" the unit away from
the object that was hit. This reaction can be violent
enough to cause the operator to lose control of the
unit. Kick back can occur without warning if the blade
snags, stalls, or binds. This is more likely to occur in
areas where it is difficult to see the material being
cut. For cutting ease and safety, approach the weeds
being cut from the right to the left. In the event an
unexpected object or woody stock is encountered,
this could minimize the blade kick back reaction.
Never cut any material over 13mm diameter.
Always wear the shoulder strap when using the brush
cutter and adjust to a comfortable operating position.
Maintain a firm grip on both handles while cutting with
a blade. Keep the blade away from body and below
waist. Never use the brush cutter with the blade
located 75cm or more above the ground level.
Cover the blade with the blade protector before
storing the unit, or during transportation. Always
remove the blade protector before using the unit. If
not removed, the blade protector could become a
thrown object as the blade begins to turn. thrown
