• Blades and cutting rotor stay may become sharp due to wear and cause injury
such as cut on hands. When replacing blades, wear thick gloves and handle
carefully.

cause injury. When it is difcult to remove blade from stay, remove foreign
object around stay, wash blades and rotate blade to remove.

• Allow machine to cool off before servicing. Engine and its ancillaries are very
hot after operation and may pose a burn hazard.
