Risk of "kickout" (blade thrust)
with all rigid cutting blades
!Warning!
Kickout (blade thrust) is the sudden and
uncontrolled motion towards the
operator's right or rear that can occur
when the shaded area of the rotating
blade comes in contact with a solid
object like a tree, rock, bush or wall. The
rapid counterclockwise rotation of the
blade may be stopped or slowed, and
the cutting attachment may be thrown in
an area to the right or to the rear.
This kickout (blade thrust) may cause
loss of control of the clearing saw and
may result in serious or fatal injury to the
operator or bystanders. To reduce the
risk of injury, extreme caution should be
used when cutting with the shaded area
of any rigid blade.
: Hold lower clamp (1) steady.
: Unscrew and remove the clamp
screw (2) and the hex. head
screw (3).
: Remove the upper clamp (4) from
the lower clamp.
Upper and lower clamps are loose
once the hex. head screw has been
removed.
: Place the handlebar (5) in the lower
clamp (1) so that distance A is no
more than 6 in (15 cm).
: Place upper clamp in position and
press it down.
: Fit the clamp screw and hex. head
screw.
: Line up handlebar at right angles to
the drive tube.
: Tighten the clamp screw first, then
the hex. head screw.
