When working on slopes, always be sure of your
footing, always work across the face of slopes, never
up or down and exercise extreme caution when
changing direction. This reduces the risk of loss
of control, slipping and falling which may result in
personal injury.
•
Keep all power cords and cables away from cutting
area. Power cords or cables may be hidden in
hedges or bushes and can be accidentally cut or
damaged by the line or cutter.
•
Keep all parts of the body away from the moving
trimmer cutter or line. Do not clear material from
the machine until it has been disconnected from the
power source. The moving trimmer cutter or line may
result in serious personal injury.

and away from your body. Proper handling of the
machine will reduce the likelihood of accidental
contact with a moving trimmer cutter or line.
•
Only use replacement cutting heads and trimmer
cutters or lines specified by the manufacturer. Do not
replace the trimmer cutters or lines with metal wires
or blades. Incorrect replacement parts may cause
loss of control, breakage and injury.
