California and 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 clearing saw 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 clearing saw under
control at all times. Make sure your
clearing saw handles and grip are in
good condition and free of moisture,
pitch, oil or grease.
!Warning!
Never attempt to operate any clearing-
saw with one hand. Loss of control of the
clearing saw 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.
