•Avoid running the engine indoors. The exhaust gases contain harmful carbon monoxide.

•Never use your stick edger under circumstances like those described below:

1.When the ground is slippery or when other conditions exist which might make it not possible to maintain a steady posture while using the stick edger.

2.At night, at times of heavy fog, or at any other times when your field of vision might be limited and it would be difficult to gain a clear view of the area where the stick edger is to be used to ensure safety.

3.During rain storms, during lightning storms, at times of strong or gale-force winds, or at any other times when weather conditions might make it unsafe to use this product.

•When using this product for the first time, before beginning actual work, take the stick edger to a wide, clear, open space, turn on the power, and practice handling the stick edger until you are sure that you will be able to handle in it properly in actual operation.

•Lack of sleep, tiredness, or physical exhaustion results in lower attention spans, and this in turn leads to accidents and injury. When planning your work schedule, allow plenty of time to perform the work of edging and allow plenty of time for rest. Limit the amount of time over which the stick edger is to be used continuously to somewhere around 30~40 minutes per session, and take 10~20 minutes of rest between work sessions. Also try to keep the total amount of work performed in a single day under 2 hours or less.
