CAUTION! For nylon string heads, use only
strings made of flexible material recommended by
the manufacturer. For example, you should never
use metal wire because it could cause serious
injuries to people, property and animals. An
unsuitable string could break and turn into a very
dangerous missile.

CAUTION! Always work with a sharp blade. A
blade with worn teeth can create problems in
cutting and can cause KICKBACK, that is, a
violent thrust on the front of the machine caused
by the impact of the blade against wood or solid
foreign bodies. This kickback can cause loss of
control of the machine. Never sharpen a
damaged blade: replace with a new one.
