1. Whatcausesbladethrust:
Blade thrust can occur when the moving blade
contacts an object that it cannot cut. This contact
causes the blade to stop for an instant and then
suddenly move or ”bounce” away from the object
that was hit. The operator can lose control of the
unit and the blade can cause serious personal
injury to the operator or any person nearby if the
blade contacts any part of the body.

thrust:
(1) Recognize that blade thrust can happen. By
understanding and knowing about bounce, you
can help eliminate the element of surprise.
(2) Cut fibrous weeds and grass only. Do not let
the blade contact materials it cannot cut such
as hard, woody vines and brush or rocks,
fences, metal, etc
(3) Be extra prepared for blade thrust if you must
cut where you cannot see the blade making
contact such as in areas of dense growth.
(4) Keep the blade sharp. A dull blade increase
the chance of blade thrust.
(5) Avoid feeding the blade too rapidly. The blade
can bounce away from material being cut if the
blade is fed faster than its cutting capability.
(6) Cut only from your right to your left.
(7) Keep your path of advance clear of material
that has been cut and other debris.
3. Howyoucanmaintainthebestcontrol:
(1) Keep a good, firm grip on the unit with both
hands. A firm grip can help neutralize bounce.
Keep your right and left hands completely
around the respective handles.
(2) Keep both feet spread apart in a comfortable
stance and yet braced for the possibility that
the unit could bounce. Do not overreach. Keep
firm footing and balance.
