3. Thoroughly inspect the area where the machine is to be used and
remove all stones, sticks, wires, bones, and other foreign objects.
Thrown objects can cause personal injury.
4. Before using the machine, always visually inspect to see that the
cutter or blade and the cutter or blade assembly are not damaged.
Damaged parts increase the risk of injury.
5. Before use, check the supply cord and any extension cord for
signs of damage or aging. Do not use the machine if the cord is
damaged or worn. If the cord is damaged or worn during use,
switch off the machine and do not touch the cord before
disconnecting it from the supply. A damaged supply cord or
extension cord may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
6. Follow instructions for changing accessories. Improperly tightened
blade securing nuts or bolts may either damage the blade or result in it
becoming detached.
7. The rated rotational speed of the blade must be at least equal to
the maximum rotational speed marked on the machine. Blades
running faster than their rated rotational speed can break and fly apart.
8. Wear eye, ear, head, and hand protection. Adequate protective
equipment will reduce personal injury by flying debris or accidental
contact with the cutting line or blade.
9. While operating the machine, always wear non-slip and protective
footwear. Do not operate the machine when barefoot or wearing
open sandals. This reduces the chance of injury to the feet from
contact with the moving cutters or lines.
10. While operating the machine, always wear safety footwear. Do not
operate the machine when barefoot or wearing open sandals. This
reduces the chance of injury to the feet from contact with a moving
cutter, line, or blade.
11. While operating the machine, always wear long trousers. Exposed
skin increases the likelihood of injury from thrown objects.
12. Keep bystanders away while operating the machine. Thrown debris
can result in serious personal injury.
13. Always use two hands when operating the machine. Holding the
machine with both hands will avoid loss of control.
14. Hold the machine by insulated gripping surfaces only, because
the cutting line or blade may contact hidden wiring or its own
cord. Cutting line or blades contacting a "live" wire may make exposed
metal parts of the machine "live" and could give the operator an electric
shock.
15. Always keep proper footing and operate the machine only when
standing on the ground. Slippery or unstable surfaces may cause a
loss of balance or control of the machine.
