Safety Precautions (continued)
WARNING!
Kickback
Kickback may force the cut-off
wheel up and back toward the
operator lightning-fast.
Kickback can occur whenever
the upper half of the cut-off
wheel touches an object. Never
cut an object using the upper
half of the cut-off wheel.

below chest level.
Operation
The unit must be held firmly with
both hands, one hand on the
rear handle, the other on the
front handle. Never hold onto
any other part of the unit.
Never impact or apply pressure to
the sides of the cut-off wheel for
any reason.
Maintain firm and stable footing
during operation. Do not over-
reach.
When working in a group,
make sure operators are least
10 meters away from each other.
If you drop the unit or strike it
against a hard surface, stop the
engine immediately and inspect
for damage. If you discover dam-
age, have it repaired before you
return the unit to service.
Check the fuel filler cap regularly
during operation to make sure it
remains securely tightened. This unit must be operated
below chest level. Operating
above chest level may result in
serious injury.
When cutting vertically, the unit
should be positioned horizon-
tally or with the wheel side tilted
slightly down. When cutting
horizontally, the recoil starter-
side should face up.
