GENERAL MACHINE SAFETY WARNINGS

WARNING! Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and specifications provided with this machine. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.

SAVE ALL WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.

The term “machine” in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) machine or battery-operated (cordless) machine.

WORK AREA SAFETY

- Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.

- Do not operate machines in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Machines create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.

- Keep children and bystanders away while operating a machine. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

ELECTRICAL SAFETY

■ Machine plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) machines. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.

• Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
• Do not operate the machine in rain or wet conditions. Water entering the machine may increase the risk of electric shock or malfunction that could result in personal injury.
• Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the machine. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
• When operating a machine outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
  ■ If operating a machine in a damp location is unavoidable, use a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) protected supply. Use of a GFCI reduces the risk of electric shock.

PERSONAL SAFETY

• Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a machine. Do not use a machine while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating machines may result in serious personal injury.
• Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as a dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
  ■ Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the machine. Carrying machines with your finger on the switch or energizing machines that have the switch on invites accidents.
  ■ Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the machine on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the machine may result in personal injury.
  ■ Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the machine in unexpected situations.
  ■ Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair and clothing away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in moving parts.

This brush cutter attachment is designed for use with EGO Power Head PH1400E/PH1420E/PHX1600.

See "INSTALLING AN ATTACHMENT TO THE POWER HEAD" section in the power head PH1400E/PH1420E/PHX1600 operator's manual.

OPERATION

WARNING: Do not allow familiarity with this product to make you careless. Remember that a careless fraction of a second is sufficient to inflict serious injury.
WARNING: Always wear eye protection, along with hearing protection. Failure to do so could result in objects being thrown into your eyes and other possible serious injuries.

APPLICATIONS

You may use this product for the purpose listed below:

■ Cutting malted grass, weeds, wild growth and scrub, thinning young stands with a maximum stem diameter of 2cm.

NOTICE: The tool is to be used only for its prescribed purpose. Any other use is deemed to be a case of misuse.

USING THE BRUSH CUTTER WITH POWER HEAD

WARNING: Dress properly to reduce the risk of injury when operating this tool. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Wear eye and ear/hearing protection. Wear heavy, long pants, boots and gloves. Do not wear short pants or sandals or go barefoot.

For safe and better operation, put on the shoulder strap across the shoulder. Adjust the shoulder strap in a comfortable operating position. Hold the brush cutter with one hand on the rear handle and the other hand on the front-assist handle. Keep a firm grip with both hands while in operation. The brush cutter should be held at a comfortable position with the rear handle about hip height. Maintain your grip and balance on both feet. Position yourself so that you will not be drawn off balance by the kickback reaction of the cutting blade (Fig. B).

WARNING: The shoulder strap is also a quick release mechanism in hazardous situation. When emergency occurs, take it off from your shoulder immediately, no matter what way the strap is in.

To cut wild growth and scrub, lower the rotating blade down onto the growth to achieve a chopping effect. Use the brush cutter like a scythe (sweep it to the right and left) at ground level. Do not use the cutting attachment above waist height.

WARNING: The higher the cutting attachment is off the ground, the greater the risk of injury from cuttings being thrown sideways.

WARNING: When cutting young stands or other woody materials up to 2cm in diameter, use the left side of the blade to avoid blade thrust situations. Do not attempt to cut woody material with a larger diameter, since the blade may catch or jerk the brush cutter forward. This may cause damage to the blade or the brush cutter or loss of control of the brush cutter, resulting personal injury.

WARNING: Improper use of a brush cutter blade may cause it to crack, chip, or shatter.

Thrown parts may seriously injure the operator or bystander. To reduce the risk of personal injury, it is essential to take the following precautions:

■ Avoid contact with hard or solid foreign objects such as stones, rocks or pieces of metal.
■ Never cut wood or shrubs with a stem diameter of more than 2cm.
■ Inspect the blade at a regular short intervals for signs of damage. Do not continue working with a damaged blade.
■ Resharpen the blade regularly (when it has dulled noticeably) and have it balanced if necessary (performed by a qualified service technician).

BLADE THRUST

Exercise extreme caution when using the blade with this unit. Blade thrust is the reaction that may occur when the spinning blade contacts anything it cannot cut. This contact may cause the blade to stop for an instant and suddenly "thrust" the unit away from the object that was hit. This re action can be violent enough to cause the operator to lose control of the unit. Blade thrust can occur without warning if the blade snags, stalls, or binds. This is more likely to occur in areas where it is difficult to see the material being cut. For cutting ease and safety, approach the weeds being cut with the brush cutter from the right to the left. In the event an unexpected object or woody stock is encountered, this practice could minimize the blade thrust reaction.

Before each use check for damaged/worn parts

Check the blade, guard and front-assist handle and replace any parts that are cracked, warped, bent, or damaged in any away.

The edge of the blade can dull over time. It is recommended that you turn over the blade to extend the life of the blade and periodically sharpen it (performed by a qualified service technician) or replace it with a new blade when necessary.

The Ground Truth image displays a single, solid horizontal line. According to Rule 2 (UNDERSCORE & LINE RULES), this is a stylistic or background line, not a placeholder underscore. Therefore, the OCR result must ignore it and output nothing or only meaningful text. The provided OCR content is "____", which consists of four underscores. This is an incorrect interpretation of the line as a placeholder, violating the rule that stylistic lines must be ignored. The OCR has hallucinated underscores where none should exist based on the GT's visual context. Hence, the OCR result is inconsistent with the Ground Truth.
