some other authorities, for instance, 
have published lists of substances 
known to cause cancer, reproductive 
toxicity, etc.
Control dust and fumes at the source 
where possible. In this regard use good 
work practices and follow the 
recommendations of OSHA/NIOSH and 
occupational and trade associations. 
When the inhalation of toxic dust and 
fumes cannot be eliminated, the 
operator and any bystanders should 
always wear a respirator approved by 
NIOSH/MSHA for the type of dust and / 
or fumes encountered.
!Warning!
The muffler and other parts of the engine 
(e.g. fins of the cylinder, spark plug) 
become hot during operation and remain 
hot for a while after stopping the engine. 
To reduce risk of burns do not touch the 
muffler and other parts while they are 
hot. 
Do not cut any material other than grass, 
brush and wood. The cutting tools may 
be used only for the operations 
described in your manual.
Always hold the brushcutter firmly with 
both hands. Wrap your fingers tightly 
around the handles, keeping the 
handles cradled between your thumb 
and forefinger. Keep your hands in this 
position to have your brushcutter under 
control at all times. Make sure your 
brushcutter handles and grip are in good 
condition and free of moisture, pitch, oil 
or grease.
!Warning!
Never attempt to operate any brush-
cutter with one hand. Loss of control of 
the brushcutter resulting in serious or 
fatal injury may result. 
!Warning!
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing 
and balance at all times. Special care 
must be taken in slippery conditions (wet 
ground, snow) and in difficult, overgrown 
terrain. Watch for hidden obstacles such 
as tree stumps, roots and ditches to 
avoid stumbling. Be extremely cautious 
when working on slopes or uneven 
ground.
