ENGLISH
*ANSI standards require brush cutters be equipped with a barrier bar or
restrictive harness. U-Handle ensures a higher safety factor.
Do Not install blades on GT (Curved Shaft) model trimmers.
• Arbor diameter of upper blade plate must match arbor diameter of blades.
• A new cotter pin is required each time a blade is installed.
• Brush cutters over 7.5 kg (16.5 lbs.) dry weight (without fuel) require a
double shoulder harness.
Note: The barrier bar is used to restrict rearward movement of
the unit. The barrier bar is not a handle and should not
be gripped when using or carrying the unit.
Blade Selection
The type of blade used MUST be matched to the type and size of
material cut. An improper or dull blade can cause serious
personal injury. Blades MUST be sharp. Dull blades increase the
chance of kick-out and injury to yourself and bystanders. Never
use an edging blade, circular saw blade, or any other type of
unapproved blade.
