OPERATOR SAFETY

21.Stop the engine whenever you leave the equipment, before cleaning repairing or inspecting the unit, be sure the trimmer head and all moving parts have stopped. Let the engine cool, disconnect the spark plug wire and move it away from the spark plug.

22.If the equipment should start to vibrate abnormally, stop the engine, disconnect the spark plug wire and prevent it from touching the spark plug. Check immedi- ately for the cause. Vibration is generally a warning of trouble.

23.After striking a foreign object, stop the engine. Remove the wire from the spark plug. Inspect the machine for damage. If damaged, repair before starting and op- erating the machine.

24.Never leave the machine unattended when the engine is running. Remove the wire from the spark plug.

25.Regularly inspect the machine. Make sure parts are not bent, damaged or loose.

26.Allow muffler and engine areas to cool before touching. Never pick up or carry the trimmer while the engine is running.

27.Prolonged exposure to noise and vibration from petrol engine powered equipment should be avoided. Take intermittent breaks and/or wear ear protection from engine noise as well as heavy work gloves to reduce vibration in the hands.

II.Slope Operation

Slopes are a major factor related to slip and fall accidents which can result in severe inju- ry. All slopes require extra caution. If you feel uneasy on a slope, do not trim it.

Do trim across the face of slopes; never up and down. Do not trim excessively steep slopes (maximum 15 degrees) or areas where the ground is very rough. Exercise ex- treme caution when changing direction on slopes.

Do remove objects such as rocks, tree limbs, etc.

Do watch for holes, ruts, or bumps. Tall grass can hide obstacles.

Do not trim near drop−offs, ditches, or em- bankments. The operator could lose footing or balance.

Do not trim on wet grass. Reduced footing could cause slipping.

III. Children

Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not alert to the presence of children. Children are often attracted to the machine and the trimming activity. Never assume that children will remain where you last saw them.

1.Keep children out of the trimming area and under the watchful care of a respon- sible adult.

2.Be alert and turn machine off if children enter the area.

3.Before and while moving backwards, look behind and down for small children.

4.Never allow children to operate the ma- chine.

5.Use extra care when approaching blind corners, shrubs, trees, or other objects that may obscure vision.

IV. Service

1.Use extra care in handling petrol and other fuels. They are flammable and va- pors are explosive.

a.Use only an approved container.

b.Never remove gas cap or add fuel with the engine running. Allow en- gine to cool before refueling. Do not smoke.

c.Fill fuel tank outdoors with extreme care. Never fill fuel tank indoors or near appliances with pilot lights, heaters, or other ignition sources. Replace fuel tank cap securely. If fuel is spilled, do not start the engine but move product and fuel container from area. Clean up spilled fuel and allow to evaporate.

d.Never store the machine or fuel container inside where there is an open flame (such as a water heater), or other ignition source.

e.If the fuel tank has to be drained, this should be done outdoors. The drained fuel should be stored in a container specifically designed for fuel storage or it should be dis- posed of carefully.
