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 difficult to see the material to be 

cut. 

•

 Read the Operator's Manual and follow all warnings and safety instructions. Failure to 

do so can result in serious injury to the operator and /or bystanders. 

•

 Objects may be thrown or ricochet 

in all directions. ALWAYS WEAR EYE PROTECTION. 

•

 Keep bystanders at least 50 feet (15m) away. 

•

 To 

reduce the chance of hearing loss, always wear ear protection. 

•

 To reduce the risk of injury from loss of 

control, never use a metal blade on a curved shaft grass trimmer.  Never use a metal blade on any 
brushcutter without barrier bar or bicycle handle configuration and safety strap. 

•

 Use of a blade may 

cause a sudden sideways, forward or backward motion of the brushcutter when the blade contacts a solid 

object. See Owner's manual for model specific details. 

Be careful of thrown 
objects. 

Gloves should be worn when 
necessary, e.g. when 

assembling cutting equipment. 

Use anti-slip and sturdy 
footwear.
