5. For safe operation

look around or otherwise check for the presence and locations of other people working so as to maintain a distance between each person sufficient to ensure safety.

2.Check the condition of working area to avoid any accident by hitting hidden obstacles such as stumps, stones, cans, or broken glass.

IMPORTANT

Remove any obstacle before beginning work.

3.Inspect the entire unit for loose fasteners and fuel leakage. Make sure that the cutting attachment is properly installed and securely fastened.

■STARTING THE ENGINE

1.Keep bystanders especially children, and animals at least 15 m (50 ft) away from the operating point. If you are approached, immediately stop the engine.

2.The product is equipped with a centrifugal clutch mechanism, so the cutting attachment might begin to rotate as soon as the engine is started. When starting the engine, place the product onto the ground in a flat clear area and hold it firmly in place so as to ensure that neither the cutting part nor the throttle come into contact with any obstacle when the engine starts.

WARNING

Never place the throttle into the high- speed position when starting the engine.

3.After starting the engine, check to make sure that the cutting attachment stops rotating when the throttle is moved fully back to its original position. If it continues to rotate even after the throttle has been moved fully back, turn off the engine and take the unit to your authorized RedMax servicing dealer for repair.
