DANGERZONEZONE

NO PERSON EXCEPT OPERATOR ALLOWED IN 15 METER RADIUS* DANGER ZONE. EYE, EAR, FACE, FOOT, LEG AND BODY PROTECTION MUST BE WORN BY OPERATOR. PERSONS IN ZONE OF RISK BEYOND DANGER ZONE SHOULD WEAR EYE PROTECTION AGAINST THROWN OBJECTS. RISK DIMINISHES WITH DISTANCE FROM DANGER ZONE.

Do not allow anyone to enter the operating DANGER ZONE with you. The danger zone is an area 15 meters in radius (about 16 paces) or 50 feet.

Insist that persons in the RISK ZONE beyond the danger zone wear eye protection from thrown objects. If the unit must be used where there are unprotected people, operate at a low throttle speed to reduce the risk of thrown objects.

WARNING DANGER

Beyond the 15-meter (50-feet) DANGER ZONE, there still may be risk of eye injury from thrown objects. The risk diminishes with distance. But eye protection should be considered for everyone in the zone of risk.

PREPARATION

WARNING DANGER

In addition to head, eye, face and ear protection from thrown objects, wear protective clothes and sturdy shoes to protect your feet and improve footing on slippery surfaces. Do not wear ties, jewelry, or loose, dangling clothing which could be caught in the unit. Do not wear open-toed footwear, or go barefoot or bare legged. In certain situations you must assess whether total face and head protection may be required.

When coupling the shaft to the powerhead, be sure the muffler side of the engine is to the right when the debris shield is in level position.

Install the handle in position for optimum comfort and good control of the tool. See the operator’s manual for handle installation.

*This DANGER ZONE has been increased from a 10 to 15 meter radius to include the cutting of small trees that may fall on other adjacent operators performing the same work.
