WARNING: Never use fixed blades or metal saw blades with this
trimmer. Serious injury may result. Never use wire or
metal-reinforced line or other material in place of the polymer trimmer line. Pieces
of wire or metal reinforced line can break o and can be thrown with great force
striking against and injuring the operator or bystanders.
Cover as much of your body as possible to help protect you from debris and
pieces of toxic and allergenic plants being thrown by the grass trimmer.
WARNING: Use hearing protection. Use hearing protection such as
ear plugs or ear mufflers to protect your hearing, particularly if the
trimmer is used for extensive periods or if the surrounding environ-
ment of operation exposes the operator to loud noises. When wearing hearing
protection, you will have impaired ability to hear alarms, warnings and shouts
from approaching people or approaching vehicles. Be extra diligent and
observant of hazards and bystanders when wearing hearing protection
devices. When someone approaches, turn the trimmer OFF immediately.
WARNING: The rotating trimmer line and trimmer head will throw
objects and debris violently and the objects and debris will ricochet in
all directions. You or bystanders can be blinded or injured. Keep
children, bystanders, pets and other animals at least 50 feet
(15 meters) away from the operating trimmer. Turn the trimmer OFF
immediately if approached, or if you are approaching such
bystanders. Bystanders should be encouraged to wear eye
protection, even if they are kept at a distance. The debris shield on the
trimmer is designed to reduce the danger. The debris shield provided
with your trimmer may not protect the operator or bystanders from
all objects or debris thrown by the rotating polymer line or trimmer
head.
Thrown objects may also ricochet and strike the operator or bystander.
Utilize extra caution, when the trimmer is being used as an edger or sweeper,
especially near, or on paved or hard surfaces, as pieces of metal, concrete,
brick, stones, gravel, sand, glass, sticks and other objects can be thrown at high
speed and force by the rotating line and such objects can be thrown, skip along
or ricochet long distances off of hard surfaces. Do not use this trimmer for
sweeping debris that may contain hard objects, e.g. pebbles, stones, sticks,
glass, metal, etc. as such hard objects can be thrown with great force and cause
injury to the operator or bystanders, and / or damage property, e.g., screens,
windows, building siding, glass doors, or vehicles.
