Stopping the Engine

NEVER operate the unit with the cut-

this unit without written approval from

Shindaiwa.
ALWAYS make sure the cutting attach-

ment is properly installed and firmly

tightened before operation.

Checking Unit Condition

NEVER use a cracked or warped cut-

ting attachment: replace it with a ser-

viceable one.
ALWAYS make sure the cutting attach-

ment fits properly into the appropriate

attachment holder. If a properly installed

attachment vibrates, replace the attach-

ment with new one and re-check.
ALWAYS stop the engine immediately

and check for damage if you strike a

foreign object or if the unit becomes

tangled. Do not operate with broken or

damaged equipment.

NEVER allow the engine to run at high

RPM without a load. Doing so could

damage the engine.
NEVER operate a unit with worn or

damaged fasteners or attachment

holders.
