Do not continue using the mowing head

could result in injury to the operator or
bystanders. Install a new mowing head.
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 (especially the
darkly shaded area) of a rotating blade
comes in contact with a solid rigid 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 to the
right or to the rear.

This kickout (blade thrust) may cause
loss of control of the power tool 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.
Using the Grass Cutting Blade
All kinds of grass and weeds can be
easily cut with the grass cutting blade.
The power tool is swept in an arc similar
to a scythe.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of serious or fatal
injury from blade breakage, never
attempt to use this blade to cut woody
materials.
The 4-tooth grass cutting blade is
intended to cut grass and weeds. It has
4 cutting knives with cutting edges on
both sides, i.e. front and rear. When the
cutting edges on one side become dull,
the blade can be turned over to utilize
the cutting edges on the other side.
The 8-tooth grass cutting blade is
recommended for cutting fern or reed.
Both types of grass cutting blade have to
be resharpened when all cutting edges
are dull.
