Choosing the Correct Blade

WARNING

DANGER

The type of Blade used MUST be matched to the type and size of material cut. An improper or dull blade can cause
serious personal injury. Blades MUST be sharp. Dull blades increase the chance of kick out and injury to yourself
and bystanders.

Plastic/Nylon Blades may be used where ever the nylon line head
is used. DO NOT use this blade for heavy weeds or brush! Blade
Conversion Kit P/N 99944200415 is required for use with Nylon Blades.

ss8 Tooth Weed/Grass Blade (P/N 69600120331) is designed for grass,
garden debris and thick weeds. DO NOT use this blade for brush or
heavy woody growth, 3/4" in. (19 mm) diameter or larger.
U-Handle / Blade Conversion Kit P/N 99944200521 is required for use
with this blade.

Brush/Clearing Blade (P/N 69500120330) is designed for cutting brush
and woody growth up to 3" in. (76 mm) diameter. U-Handle / Blade
Conversion Kit P/N 99944200521 is required for use with this blade.

Use Shoulder/Waist Harness (P/N 30100052131) Use of the Shoulder/
Waist Harness is recommended for ALL Trimmer/Brush Cutter use, not
just Blade operation. The Shoulder/Waist Harness when used in a
trimming operation with nylon line head suspends the trimmer from the
operator's shoulder and reduces operator fatigue.

During blade operation, the same fatigue reduction is achieved. Safety
to the operator is also enhanced by reducing the possibility of blade
contact with the operators hands and feet by restricting trimmer
movement.
