•Serious injury to the operator or bystanders could result as well as damage to the machine.
•Never leave the machine running and unattended.
•Do not use this unit for any job other than those for which it is intended as described in this manual.
•During or after operation of the engine, never touch hot parts such as the muffler, the high voltage wire or
the spark plug.
•Do not operate the machine in the rain or under wet conditions.
•Always ensure all handles and guards are fitted when using the machine.
•Always keep the machine away from naked flame or sparks.
•Always stop the engine before cleaning/clearing a blockage or checking, maintenance or working on the
machine.
•Always use a scissor lift, never work on a ladder or in a tree, never work on an insecure support and never
operate your unit with one hand. Always be sure of a safe and secure operating position especially when
working at heights.
•Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery which can be caught in moving parts. Use of sturdy
gloves, non-skid footwear, and safety glasses is recommended.
•Always wear ear protection. Loud noises for an extended period of time may damage your hearing (Noise:
98dB).
•Total face and head protection must be worn to reduce injury from falling branches.
•Wear no-slip heavy duty work gloves to improve your grip on the brush cutter handle. Gloves also reduce the

dusty or smoky, wear a respirator.
•The engine should be turned off when the machine is moved between areas and when transporting or
storing the machine. Always turn off the engine. Always fit the blade covers before carrying your tool. When
transporting in a vehicle: properly secure your machine to prevent turnover, fuel spillage and damage.
•Petrol is an extremely flammable fuel. Keep clear of naked flames.
•Do not spill any fuel. Do not smoke near fuel or the machine. Always shut off the engine before refuelling. Do
not fuel a hot engine – fuel may spill and cause a fire. Open the fuel cap carefully to allow any pressure
build-up in the tank to release slowly and avoid fuel spillage. Fuel your machine only in well ventilated areas.
If you spill fuel, wipe the machine immediately – if fuel gets on your clothing, change immediately. To reduce
the risk of serious or fatal burn injuries, check for fuel leakage. If fuel leakage is found, do not start or run the
engine until leak is fixed.
•Make sure you always have good balance and secure footing. Always be aware of your surroundings and
stay alert for possible hazards that you may not hear due to the noise of the machine. Never allow children
to access the machine. Avoid operating while people, especially children are nearby. To reduce the risk of
injury, do not allow any other persons within a radius of 25 meters of your own position. To reduce the risk of
damage to property, also maintain this distance from other objects (vehicles, windows).
•Always clean dust and dirt off the machine – do not use any grease solvents. Always keep the machine
clean, especially, the fuel tank, its surroundings, and the air cleaner. After the engine has stopped, the
muffler will still be hot. Never place the machine in any places where there are flammable materials such as
dry grass, combustible gases or combustible liquids etc. Replace cutting tool covers.
•Service the machine regularly. Do not attempt any maintenance or repair work not described in the
instruction manual. Have all other work performed by a servicing dealer. We recommend that you have
servicing and repair work carried out exclusively by an authorised service person. Before proceeding to
adjust or repair the machine, be sure to stop the engine and detach the spark plug lead. Never attempt to
