ECHO FLEXIBLE WEED/GRASS BLADE

This three-bladed device, with a 10-inch radius, is made of flexible plastic on a rigid hub. Use in place of a nylon line head on ECHO SRM series units only. Not for heavy weeds or brush.

WARNING DANGER

A blade made of materials such as plastic or rubber can be equally as dangerous as a metal blade. Take every precaution possible when cutting with a blade no matter what material it is made of.

ECHO MAXI-CUTTMWEED CUTTER

FOR GT AND SRM UNITS

The cutting circle is always at full diameter with this three-bladed, flail action cutter. Can be used on any ECHO GT or SRM series units for weed and grass cutting. Follow instructions in the operator’s manual for proper assembly. Not for cutting brush. Sets of nylon replacement blades are available.

WARNING DANGER

MAXI-CUT must be used with a plastic debris shield.

ECHO METAL WEED/GRASS BLADE

FOR SRM UNITS ONLY

The 8-inch diameter 8-tooth ECHO Weed/Grass Blade makes short work of field grass, garden debris and weeds. Handles thick, tough weeds. Must not be used to cut brush and heavy woody growth. Needs to be in sharp condition for good results.

WARNING DANGER

Pieces from a cracked metal blade can fly off during operation. Inspect metal blades for cracks before each use. Discard cracked blades no matter how small the crack. Cracked blades can be the result of misuse or improper sharpening.

The blade teeth can be sharpened to a 30-degree edge angle with a flat file. Use care not to file down into the rounded gullet area of the tooth or nick the gullet with the file. Nicked or sharp-cornered gullets can result in tiny stress cracks which keep lengthening until the blade breaks.
