English / USA California and some other authorities, for instance, have published lists of substances known to cause cancer, reproductive toxicity, etc. Control dust and fumes at the source where possible. In this regard use good work practices and follow the recommendations of OSHA/NIOSH and occupational and trade associations. When the inhalation of toxic dust and fumes cannot be eliminated, the operator and any bystanders should always wear a respirator approved by NIOSH/MSHA for the type of dust and / or fumes encountered. !Warning! The muffler and other parts of the engine (e.g. fins of the cylinder, spark plug) become hot during operation and remain hot for a while after stopping the engine. To reduce risk of burns do not touch the muffler and other parts while they are hot. Do not cut any material other than grass, brush and wood. The cutting tools may be used only for the operations described in your manual. Always hold the clearing saw firmly with both hands. Wrap your fingers tightly around the handles, keeping the handles cradled between your thumb and forefinger. Keep your hands in this position to have your clearing saw under control at all times. Make sure your clearing saw handles and grip are in good condition and free of moisture, pitch, oil or grease. 000BA014 !Warning! Never attempt to operate any clearingsaw with one hand. Loss of control of the clearing saw resulting in serious or fatal injury may result. !Warning! Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Special care must be taken in slippery conditions (wet ground, snow) and in difficult, overgrown terrain. Watch for hidden obstacles such as tree stumps, roots and ditches to avoid stumbling. Be extremely cautious when working on slopes or uneven ground. 10 FS 300, FS 350, FS 400, FS 450, FS 480
