• Use only one ECHO approved extension on the Pruner. • Cut only wood. Avoid striking concrete, metal, wire, or other obstructions which could cause kickout or damage to the blade. • ECHO, INC. will not be responsible for the failure of cutting devices or accessories which have not been tested and approved by ECHO for use with this unit. WARNING DANGER • Serious injury may result from the use of non approved blade. Read and comply with all safety instructions listed in this manual. 4 4 Guard Locate this safety decal on your attachment. Make sure the decal is legible and that you understand and follow the instructions on it. If a decal cannot be read, a new one can be ordered from your ECHO dealer. See PARTS ORDERING instructions for specific information. WARNING DANGER • Read and understand owners manual before use. • Do not operate within 15 meters (50 feet) of electrical hazards. • Use only Echo approved Hedger Blade. • Blade can thrust violently away from material. • Blade can throw debris and objects violently. • Keep nut on blade shaft tight. • Coasting blade can seriously cut you or others. • Do not operate without guard. Failure to follow these instructions can result in serious personal injury. X5052300501 KICKOUT WARNING DANGER Kickout can lead to dangerous loss of control of the Power Pruner and result in serious injury to the operator or anyone standing close by. Kickout may occur when the moving blade accidentally touches an object, or when the blade contacts material it cannot cut. In some cases this may cause a lightning-fast reverse action, thrusting the Power Pruner up and toward or down and away from the operator. Either of these reactions may cause the operator to lose control of the unit which could result in serious personal injury. With a basic understanding of kickout, you can reduce or eliminate the element of surprise which contributes to accidents. Hold the unit firmly with both hands. Be aware of the path the cutting attachment will take after the cut is made. The blade will continue to coast after throttle is released. Avoid accidental contact of the blade with any object while the blade is moving. Cut only wood. Avoid striking concrete, metal, wire or other obstructions which could cause kickout or damage to the blade. If the blade does strike a foreign object, immediately stop the engine, inspect and repair the Power Pruner if necessary. NOTE Refer to Safe Operation section, in your Power Pruner Operator’s Manual, for proper shoulder strap adjustment.
