ALWAYS USE SAFETY GLASSES
Safety glasses should always be worn when working around power tools. Everyday eye-
glasses only have impact resistant lenses and may not prevent eye injury; they are NOT
safety glasses.
ALWAYS USE RESPIRATORY PROTECTION
Exhaust gases may be harmful if inhaled. Do not operate gas-powered equipment in
enclosed spaces. Respiratory protection should be worn when operating gas powered
equipment.
ALWAYS USE HEARING PROTECTION
To reduce the possibility of hearing loss, always use hearing protection when operating
equipment.
ROTATING OR MOVING PARTS
Keep hands, feet, hair, and clothing away from all moving parts to prevent injury. Never
operate a power tool with shrouds or guards removed.
HOT PARTS
Engine components can become extremely hot from operation. To prevent severe burns, do
not touch these areas while the engine is running, or immediately after it is turned off. Never
operate the engine with heat shields removed.
