Shindaiwa LE242, 81532 manual Be Aware of the Working Environment, Feet, Safety Labels

Be Aware of the Working Environment

Avoid long-term operation in very hot or very cold weather.

Always make sure the ap- propriate cutting attachment shield is correctly installed.

Be extremely careful of slippery terrain, especially during rainy weather.

Be constantly alert for objects and debris that could be thrown either from the rotating cutting attachment or bounced from a hard surface.

FEET

Make sure bystanders or observers outside the 50-foot “danger zone” wear eye protection.

Reduce the risk of bystanders being struck by flying debris. Make sure no one is within 50 feet (15 meters)—that’s about 16 paces—of an operating attachment.

When operating in rocky terrain or near electric wires or fences, use extreme caution to avoid contact- ing such items with the cutting attachment.

If contact is made with a hard object, stop the engine and inspect the cutting attachment for damage.
