Handlebar EDGER SAFETY WARNING: Inspect the area to be edged before each use. Remove objects (rocks, broken glass, nails, wire, etc.) which can be thrown by the blade or can wrap around the shaft. WARNING: Blade rotates momen- tarily after the trigger is released or engine is turned off. The blade can seriously cut you or others. Allow blade to stop before removing it from the cut. S Never run unit without the proper equipment attached. When using your unit as a blower, always install blower tubes. S Check air intake opening, blower tubes or vacuum tubes frequently, always with engine stopped and spark plug disconnected. Keep vents and discharge tubes free of debris which can accumulate and restrict proper air flow. S Never place any object in air intake opening as this could restrict proper air flow and cause damage to the unit. S Never use for spreading chemicals, fertilizers, or other substances which may contain toxic materials. S To avoid spreading fire, do not use near leaf or brush fires, fireplaces, barbecue pits, ashtrays, etc. BRUSHCUTTER SAFETY DANGER: Blade can thrust violently away from material it does not cut. Blade thrust can cause amputation of arms or legs. WARNING: Do not use trimmer head as a fastening device for the blade. S Throw away blades that are bent, warped, cracked, broken or damaged in any other way. Replace parts that are cracked, chipped, or damaged before using the unit. S Do not attempt to remove cut material nor hold material to be cut when the engine is running or when cutting blade is moving. S Always keep the wheel and depth adjusting skid in contact with the ground. S Always push the unit slowly over the ground. Stay alert for uneven sidewalks, holes in the terrain, large roots, etc. BLOWER/VACUUM SAFETY WARNING: Inspect area before starting unit. Remove all debris and hard objects such as rocks, glass, wire, etc. that can ricochet, be thrown, or otherwise cause injury or damage during operation. S Do not set unit on any surface except a clean, hard area while engine is running. Debris such as gravel, sand, dust, grass, etc., could be picked up by the air intake and thrown out through discharge opening, damaging unit, property, or causing serious injury to bystanders or operator. S Never place objects inside the blower tubes, vacuum tubes or blower outlet. Always direct the blowing debris away from people, animals, glass, and solid objects such as trees, automobiles, walls, etc. The force of air can cause rocks, dirt, or sticks to be thrown or to ricochet which can hurt people or animals, break glass, or cause other damage. WARNING: The blade continues to spin after the trigger is released or engine is turned off. The coasting blade can throw objects or seriously cut you if accidentally touched. Stop the blade by contacting the left hand side of the coasting blade with material already cut. WARNING: Inspect the area to be cut before each use. Remove objects (rocks, broken glass, nails, wire, etc.) which can be thrown or become entangled in the blade or trimmer line. 6
