■ OPERATION
1. Check the bolt to fasten the blade and be sure the
bolt has no fault, and no abrasion.
2. Be sure that the blade and the holder have been
fastened according to instruction and the blade turns
smoothly without abnormal noise. (OPT10)
• The rotating parts fastened incorrectly may
cause serious accident to the operator.
• Make sure that the blade is not bent, warped,
cracked, broken or damaged.
• If you find any error to the blade, discard it and
change new one which is certified by RedMax.
■ By using the shoulder strap, hang the unit on your
right side. Adjust the strap length so that the cutting
head may become parallel to the ground. (OP8)
Make sure to use shoulder strap and debris guard.
If not, it is very dangerous when you slip or lose
your balance.
■ CONTROLLING BLADE THRUST
• Blade thrust can cause serious personal injury.
Carefully study this section. It is important that
you understand what causes blade thrust, how you
can reduce the chance of blade thrust and how you
can remain in control of the unit if blade thrust does
occur.
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.
