The operation of any cutter can encounter foreign objects to be thrown into the eyes, resulting in
severe eye damage. Always wear certified safety glasses or wide-vision safety goggles for over
spectacles before staring any cutting machine and while operating such a machine.
The operation of any cutter produces sound waves that are damaging to the human ear. Ear
protection is recommended.
CAUTION!
Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not alert to the presence of children. Children
are often attracted to the machine and the mowing activity. Never assume that children
will remain where you last saw them.
Do not operate the trimmer if it vibrates abnormally. Excessive vibration is a sign of
Damage. Stop the engine and safely check for damage and repair as required
