WORK AREA SAFETY
• Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
• Do not operate power tools in explosive which may ignite the dust or fumes atmospheres, such
as in the presence of ammable liquids, gases or dust.
• Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes
• Keep children and bystanders away while operating control. a power tool. Distractions can cause
you to lose control.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
• Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any
adapter plugs, with earthed (grounded), power tools. Unmodied plugs and matching outlest will
reduce risk of electric shock.
• Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such as pipes, rdiators, ranges and
refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
• Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions, Water entering a power tool will increase
the risk of electric shock.
• Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool.
carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool.
• Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords
increase the risk of electric shock.
• When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a
cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
• If operating a power tool in a damp location is, unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD)
protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock
PERSONAL SAFETY
• Stay alert, watch what you are doing and usecommon sense when operating a power tool. Do
not use a power tool while you are tired or under the inuence of drugs, alcohol or medication.
A moment. of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury

GENERAL SAFETY RULES
• Do not attempt to touch or stop the blade when it is rotating.
• A moving blade can cause severe injury. Maintain proper control of the machine with both hands
until the blade has completely stopped rotating.
• Replace any blade that has been damaged. Always make sure blade is installed correctly and
securely fastened before each use.
• Use only the manufacturer’s replacement TRI-ARC blade. Do not use any other cutting
attachment.
• Never cut any material over 13mm diameter.
• Your Brushcutter is tted with a harness. Carefully adjust the harness to t comfortably and help
to support the weight of the machine at your right side.
• Identify the Quick Release mechanism and practice using it BEFORE you start using the machine.
It’s correct use may prevent serious injury in the case of an emergency. Never wear additional
clothing over the harness or otherwise restrict access to the quick release mechanism.
• Cover the blade with the blade protector before storing the unit, or during transportation. Always
remove the blade protector before using the unit. If not removed, the blade protector could
become a thrown object as the blade begins to turn.
• 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 reaction can be violent enough to cause the operator to lose control of the unit. Blade thrust
may occur without warning if the blade snags, stalls, or binds. This is more likely to occur in areas
there it is difcult to see the material being cut.
• For cutting ease and safety, approach the weeds being cut 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. Both hands must be used at all times to control this product.
WARNING
Some regions have regulations that restrict the use of the product. Check with your
local authority for advice.
RESIDUAL RISK
Even when the product is used as prescribed, it is still impossible to completely eliminate certain
residual risk factors. The following hazards may arise in use and the operator should pay special
attention to avoid the following:
• Injury caused by vibration. Always use the right tool for the job, use designated handles and
restrict working time and exposure.
• Exposure to noise can cause hearing injury. Wear ear protection and limit exposure
• Kickback can occur when using the brushcutter. Ensure proper control by using both hands on
the designated handles. Read and follow the directions elsewhere in this manual to help reduce
the risk of kickback.

RISK REDUCTION
It has been reported that vibrations from hand-held tools may contribute to a condition called
Raynaud’s Syndrome in certain individuals. Symptoms may include tingling, upon exposure to cold.
Hereditary factors, exposure to cold and dampness, diet, smoking and work practices are all thought
to contribute to the development of these symptoms. There are measures that can be taken by the
operator to possibly reduce the effects of vibration:
• Keep your body warm in cold weather. When operating the unit wear gloves to keep the hands
and wrists warm. It is reported that cold weather is a major factor contributing to Raynaud’s
Syndrome.
• After each period of operation, exercise to increase blood circulation.
• Take frequent work breaks. Limit the amount of exposure per day.
If you experience any of the symptoms of this condition, immediately discontinue use and see your
doctor about these symptoms.
WARNING
Injuries may be caused, or aggravated, by prolonged use of a tool. When using any
tool for prolonged periods, ensure you take regular breaks.
