23. WARNING!
• Never permit a person without training or instruction to operate this machine.
• Always make sure the cutter attachment is properly installed and firmly tightened before
operation.
• Do not operate the articulated hedge trimmer with the muffler removed.
• Never use a cracked or warped cutter or cutter bar: replace or repair before use.
• Make sure there is always good ventilation when operating the articulated hedge trimmer.
Fumes from engine exhaust can cause serious injury or death.
Never run the engine indoors!
• Before starting the engine, make sure the cutter is clear of all objects.
• Always stop the engine immediately and check for damage if you strike a foreign object or
if the machine becomes tangled. Do not operate with broken or damaged equipment.
• Make sure there are no missing or loose fasteners, and that the stop switch and throttle
controls are working properly.
• When cutting a branch that is under tension, be alert for spring-back so that you will not be
struck by the moving branch.
• If a cutter should bind fast in a cut, shut off the engine immediately. Push the branch or tree
to ease the bind and free the cutter.
• Stop the machine immediately if it suddenly begins to vibrate or shake. Inspect for broken,
missing or improperly installed parts or attachments.
• Make sure the cutters are correctly adjusted before operating the articulated hedge trimmer
(see cutter adjustment procedures). Never attempt cutter adjustment with the engine
running!
• Never smoke or light fires near the hedge trimmer. Keep the trimmer away from excessive
heat. Engine fuel is very flammable and fire could lead to serious personal injury or
property damage.
• Make sure of no fuel leaking from Fuel tank, Fuel cap, Fuel pipe and Carburetor and other
parts which fuel may leak. Repair the machine if fuel leaking, make sure no leaking again.
