SAFETY SYMBOLS AND DECALS
This powerhead has been designed and manufactured to provide you with the safety and reliability you would expect from an
industry leader in outdoor power equipment manufacturing.
Reading this manual and the safety instructions it contains will provide you with the necessary basic knowledge to operate this
equipment safely and effectively. We have placed a safety decal on the powerhead to remind you of some of this important information
while you are operating the unit. These important safety messages are illustrated below, and are shown here to help familiarize you
with the location and content of the safety messages you will see as you perform normal drilling operations. Review these decals
now, and if you have any questions regarding their meaning or how to comply with these instructions, reread the complete safety
instruction text in this manual. For additional questions European customers may contact their local dealer while US customers must
contact Earthquake customer service.
Should a decal become unreadable because of being worn, faded, or otherwise damaged during the use of your powerhead, use the
part number information provided in the illustrated parts breakdown to order a replacement label. European customers can order
from their local authorized dealer while US customers can order by contacting Earthquake customer service. These decals are easily
applied, and will act as a constant visual reminder to you, and others who may use the equipment, to follow the safety instructions
necessary for safe, effective operation of your powerhead.
The following symbols may be used on your engine to alert you to potential hazards or to give you guidance in operating your
