Be Aware of the Working Environment
Avoid long-term op-
eration in very hot or
very cold weather.
Be extremely
careful of slip-
pery terrain, es-
pecially during
rainy weather.
If contact is made with a hard object, stop
the engine and inspect the cutting attach-
ment for damage.
Be constantly alert for objects and debris
that could be thrown either from the rotating
cutting attachment or bounced from a hard
surface.

Make sure bystanders or ob-
servers outside the 50-foot "dan-
ger zone" wear eye protection.
Reduce the risk of
bystanders being struck
by flying debris. Make
sure no one is within
50 feet
(15 meters)—that's
about 16 paces—of an
operating attachment.
IMPORTANT!
Safety and Information Labels: Make sure all safety and in-
formation labels are undamaged, readable and up to date.
Immediately replace damaged or missing labels.
New labels are available through your local authorized
Shindaiwa dealer.
When operating in rocky terrain
or near electric wires or fences,
use extreme caution to avoid con-
tacting such items with the cutting
attachment.
