OPERATION
".
10 — English
Hold the brush cutter with your right hand on the rear handle
and the your left hand on the "J" handle. Keep a firm grip
with both hands while in operation. Brush cutter should be
held at a comfortable position with the rear handle about
hip height. Maintain your grip and balance on both feet.
Position yourself so that you will not be drawn off balance
by the kickback reaction of the cutting blade.
Adjust the shoulder harness to position the brush cutter
at a comfortable operating position and to assure that the
shoulder harness will reduce the risk of operator contact
with the blade.
WARNING:
Always hold the brush cutter away from the body keeping
clearance between the body and the product. Any contact
with the housing can result in burns and/or other serious
personal injury.
BLADE ThRUST
Exercise extreme caution when using the blade with this
unit. Blade thrust is the reaction that may occur when the
spinning blade contacts anything it cannot cut. This contact
may cause the blade to stop for an instant, and suddenly
"thrust" the unit away from the object that was hit. This re-
action can be violent enough to cause the operator to lose
control of the unit. Blade thrust can occur without warning
if the blade snags, stalls, or binds. This is more likely to oc-
cur in areas where it is difficult to see the material being cut.
For cutting ease and safety, approach the weeds being cut
with the brush cutter from the right to the left. In the event
an unexpected object or woody stock is encountered, this
practice could minimize the blade thrust reaction.
