English might be aggravated by strenuous work, check with your doctor before operating this machine. Proper Clothing WARNING To reduce the risk of injury, the operator should wear proper protective apparel. The deflector provided with your power tool will not protect the operator from all foreign objects (gravel, glass, wire, etc.) thrown back by the rotating cutting attachment. Thrown objects may also ricochet and strike the operator. WARNING To reduce the risk of injury to your eyes never operate your power tool unless wearing goggles or properly fitted protective glasses with adequate top and side protection complying with ANSI Z87 "+" (or your applicable national standard). If there is a risk of injury to the operator´s face, STIHL also recommends that you also wear a face shield or face screen over your goggles or protective glasses. Power tool noise may damage your hearing. Wear sound barriers (ear plugs or ear mufflers) to protect your hearing. Continual and regular users should have their hearing checked regularly. Be particularly alert and cautious when wearing hearing protection because your ability to hear warnings (shouts, alarms, etc.) is restricted. Always wear heavy duty work gloves (e.g. made of leather or other wear resistant material) when handling the machine and metal blades. Heavyduty, nonslip gloves improve your grip and help to protect your hands. Clothing must be sturdy and snug-fitting, but allow complete freedom of movement. Wear long pants made of heavy material to help protect your legs. Do not wear shorts, sandals or go barefoot. Avoid loose-fitting jackets, scarfs, neckties, jewelry, flared or cuffed pants, unconfined long hair or anything that could become caught on branches, brush or the moving parts of the unit. Secure hair so it is above shoulder level. Good footing is very important. Wear sturdy boots with nonslip soles. Steel-toed safety boots are recommended. Wear an approved safety hard hat to reduce the risk of injury to your head when there is a danger of head injuries.
