NOTE: Some units do not carry them.

The following show symbols used for the machine. Be sure that you understand their meaning before use.

It is important that you read, fully 

understand and observe the following 

safety precautions and warnings. 

Careless or improper use of the unit may 

cause serious or fatal injury.

Shows maximum shaft speed. Do not 

use the cutting attachment whose 

max rpm is below the shaft rpm.

Read, understand and follow all warnings 

and instructions in this manual and on 

the unit.

Gloves should be worn when 

necessary, e.g., when assembling 

cutting equipment.

Always wear eye, head and ear protectors 

when using this unit.

Use anti-slip and sturdy footwear.

Do not use metal/rigid blades when this 

sign is shown on the unit.

Blade thrust may occur when the 

spinning blade contacts a solid object 

in the critical area. A dangerous 

reaction may occur causing the 

entire unit and operator to be thrust 

violently. This reaction is called blade 

thrust. As a result, the operator may 

lose control of the unit which may 

cause serious or fatal injury. Blade 

thrust is more likely to occur in areas 

where it is diffi  cult to see the material 

to be cut.

Keep all children, bystanders and helpers 

15 m away from the unit. If anyone 

approaches you, stop the engine and 

cutting attachment immediately.

Be careful of thrown objects.

Indicate handle location. Do not 

attach handle above this point.

Indicates blade guard location for a 

trimmer head or semi-auto cutting 

head.

• Read the manual carefully.
