SAFETY  
99944200465  
Hand Protection  
Wear sturdy, no-slip, rubber work gloves to improve your grip on the handles. Gloves also provide protection  
against cuts and scratches, cold environments, and reduce the transmission of machine vibration to your  
hands.  
Hearing/Ear Protection  
ECHO recommends wearing hearing protection whenever unit is used.  
Breathing Protection  
Operators who are sensitive to dust or other common airborne allergens may need to wear a dust mask to  
prevent inhaling these materials while operating unit. Dust masks can provide protection against dust, plant  
debris, and other plant matter such as pollen. Make sure the mask does not impair your vision, and replace  
the mask as needed to prevent air restrictions.  
Proper Clothing  
Wear snug-fitting, durable clothing:  
• Pants should have long legs, shirts should have long sleeves.  
• DO NOT WEAR SHORTS.  
• DO NOT WEAR TIES, SCARVES, JEWELRY, or clothing with loose or hanging items that could become  
entangled in moving parts or surrounding growth.  
• Keep clothing buttoned or zipped, and keep shirt tails tucked in.  
Wear sturdy work shoes with nonskid rubber soles:  
• DO NOT WEAR OPEN TOED SHOES.  
• DO NOT OPERATE UNIT BAREFOOTED.  
Keep long hair away from engine and air intake. Retain hair with cap or net.  
Heavy protective clothing can increase operator fatigue, which may lead to heat stroke. Schedule heavy  
work for early morning or late afternoon hours when temperatures are cooler.  
The components of this machine generate an electromagnetic field during operation, which may  
interfere with some pacemakers. To reduce the risk of serious or fatal injury, persons with  
pacemakers should consult with their physician and the pacemaker manufacturer before operating  
this machine. In the absence of such information, ECHO does not recommend the use of ECHO  
products by anyone who has a pacemaker.  
Extended Operation / Extreme Conditions  
Prolonged exposure to cold and/or vibration may result in injury. Read and follow all safety and  
operation instructions to minimize risk of injury. Failure to follow instructions may result in painful  
wrist/hand/arm injuries.

SAFETY  
It is believed that a condition called Raynaud’s Phenomenon, which affects the fingers of certain individuals,  
may be brought about by exposure to vibration and cold. Exposure to vibration and cold may cause tingling  
and burning sensations, followed by loss of color and numbness in the fingers. The following precautions are  
strongly recommended, because the minimum exposure, which might trigger the ailment, is unknown.  
• Keep your body warm, especially the head, neck, feet, ankles,  
hands, and wrists.  
• Maintain good blood circulation by performing vigorous arm  
exercises during frequent work breaks, and also by not  
smoking.  
• Limit the hours of operation. Try to fill each day with jobs  
where operating the unit or other hand-held power equipment  
is not required.  
• If you experience discomfort, redness, and swelling of the  
fingers followed by whitening and loss of feeling, consult your physician before further exposing yourself to  
cold and vibration.  
Repetitive Stress Injuries (RSI)  
It is believed that overusing the muscles and tendons of the fingers,  
hands, arms, and shoulders may cause soreness, swelling,  
numbness, weakness, and extreme pain in those areas. Certain  
repetitive hand activities may put you at a high risk for developing a  
Repetitive Stress Injury (RSI). An extreme RSI condition is Carpal  
Tunnel Syndrome (CTS), which could occur when your wrist swells  
and squeezes a vital nerve that runs through the area. Some believe  
that prolonged exposure to vibration may contribute to CTS. CTS  
can cause severe pain for months or even years.  
To reduce the risk of RSI/CTS, do the following:  
• Avoid using your wrist in a bent, extended, or twisted position.  
Instead try to maintain a straight wrist position. Also, when  
grasping, use your whole hand, not just the thumb and index finger.  
Take periodic breaks to minimize repetition and rest your hands.  
• Reduce the speed and force with which you do the repetitive movement.  
• Do exercise to strengthen the hand and arm muscles.  
• Immediately stop using all power equipment and consult a doctor if you feel tingling, numbness, or pain in  
the fingers, hands, wrists, or arms. The sooner RSI/CTS is diagnosed, the more likely permanent nerve  
and muscle damage can be prevented.  
All over head electrical conductors and communications wires can have electricity flow with high  
voltages. This unit is not insulated against electrical current. Never touch wires directly or indirectly,  
otherwise serious injury or death may result.

OPERATION  
OPERATION  
Moving parts can amputate fingers or cause severe injuries. Keep hands, clothing and loose objects  
away from all openings. Always stop engine, disconnect spark plug, and make sure all moving parts  
have come to a completestop before removing obstructions, clearing debris, or servicing unit. Allow  
unit to cool before performing service.  
Operation Techniques  
Engine exhaust IS HOT, and contains Carbon Monoxide (CO), a poison gas. Breathing CO can cause  
unconsciousness, serious injury, or death. Exhaust can cause serious burns. ALWAYS position  
unit so that exhaust is directed away from your face and body.  
Before operating unit, be sure to read and understand the entire Operator’s Manual to avoid the  
chance of serious personal injury.  
Note: For best results, use BRD redefining blade (provided with

unit) ONLY for redefining existing bed edges. For edging  
next to curbs, sidewalks, or other hard surfaces, remove  
redefining blade and install ECHO Approved Premium  
Power Edger blade. Use of redefining blade next to hard  
surfaces, can lead to premature blade wear.  
1. Always grip throttle handle with right hand, and support  
handle with left hand.  
2. Before using Redefiner, check the area and remove objects  
that could be thrown.  
3. Carefully plan your direction of travel. Walk outside of bed.  
Be aware of curbs or other obstacles.  
4. Work with body turned toward engine as shown. Travel in  
direction of arrow, pulling rather than pushing unit. Carefully  
watch bed edge and direction of travel. Do NOT walk  
backwards.  
Do not walk towards gear case while operating unit with redefining blade installed, otherwise poor  
performance or damage to unit could occur.

OPERATION  
99944200465  
5. When starting to work, run the engine at full throttle, and  
lower the blade gently into the ground. Travel around  
perimeter of bed, allowing the Redefiner to improve bed's  
edge.  
6. Do not force the blade. Move only as quickly as conditions  
will allow. If performance suffers or engine RPM drops,  
reduce walking speed or decrease blade depth and allow  
engine RPM to return to normal before continuing.  
Note: Blade height may need to be adjusted due to differences  
in height between the bed and the top of the grass.  
Never adjust blade height while engine is running, otherwise serious personal injury may result.  
7. Loosen adjustment knob (A) and adjust the blade’s depth of  
cut. Tighten adjustment knob (A) when desired blade height  
is achieved.  
8. If shield clogs with mud or debris, do not hit unit against  
hard surfaces to clean, or damage to unit may occur. Stop  
engine and unclog shield with a suitable tool.  
Be sure blade has completely stopped spinning before setting  
unitonconcreteorotherhardsurface. Neverallowspinningblade  
to contact hard surfaces. Carbide teeth on blade can break, or  
damage to surface can occur.  
The complete unit, specifically the drive shaft assembly  
and muffler exhaust area may become very hot during use.  
Avoid contact during and immediately after operation,  
otherwise serious personal injury may result.  
Edging Operation  
Before edging, be sure to read and understand the entire Operator’s Manual and Safety Manual to  
avoid the chance of serious personal injury.  
1. Before edging, water the area to soften the ground to make edging easier.  
2. Before edging, check the area and remove all obstacles and objects that could be thrown.

WARRANTY STATEMENTS  
99944200465  
ECHO does not offer an over the counter exchange program. Any ECHO product re-built other than by ECHO or sold through an unauthorized  
dealer, or an unauthorized outlet store, is sold without ECHO’s limited warranty coverage. The ECHO Limited Warranty coverage is extended  
to the original purchaser only, and is not transferable except for emission related parts. Repair parts and accessories replaced under this  
warranty are warranted only for the balance of the original unit or accessory warranty period. Any damage caused by improper installation or  
improper maintenance is not covered by this warranty. All parts or products replaced under warranty become the property of ECHO.  
PURCHASED REPAIR PARTS, SHORT BLOCKS AND ACCESSORIES  
• 90-day homeowner, or non-income producing warranty  
• 30-day commercial, institutional, agricultural, industrial, income producing, or rental application warranty  
ATTENTION TWO-STROKE ENGINE POWER PRODUCT OWNERS  
This ECHO two-stroke engine power product is a quality-engineered unit which has been manufactured to exact tolerances to provide superior  
performance. To help ensure the performance of the unit, it is required to use two-stroke oil which meets the ISO-L-EGD Standard per ISO/CD  
13738 and JASO M345FD Standards. (&+2ꢃ3RZHUꢃ%OHQGŒꢃ7ZRꢊ6WURNHꢃ2LO LVꢀDꢀSUHPLXPꢀWZRꢃVWURNHꢀRLOꢀVSHFL¿FDOO\ꢀIRUPXODWHGꢀWRꢀPHHWꢀ,62ꢃ  
L-EGD (ISO/CD 13738) and JASO M345FD Standards. The use of two-stroke oils designed for other applications, such as for outboard motors  
or lawnmowers can result in severe engine damage, and will void your two-stroke engine limited warranty.  
THIS WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER DAMAGE CAUSED BY:  
Lack of lubrication or engine failure, due to the use of two-stroke oils that do not meet the ISO-L-EGD (ISO/CD 13738) and JASO M345FD  
Standards. Engine problems due to inadequate lubrication caused by failure to use an ISO-L-EGD compliant and JASO M345FD registered  
oil, will void the two-stroke engine limited warranty. ECHO Power Blend™ Two-Stroke Oil meets the ISO-L-EGD and JASO M345FD  
Standard. Emission related parts are covered for 5 years homeowner use or 2 years commercial use regardless of two-stroke oil used, per  
the statement listed in the EPA or California Emission Defect Warranty Explanation.  
Damage caused by use of gasohol, containing methanol (wood alcohol), or gasoline containing less than 89 octane. Only use gasoline which  
contains 89 octane or higher. Gasohol which contains a PD[LPXP 10% ethanol (grain alcohol) or 15% MTBE (methyl/tertiary/butyl/ether)  
is also approved. The prescribed mixing ratio of gasoline to oil is listed on the ECHO oil label and covered in your operator’s manual.

WWW.ECHO-USA.COM. Your receipt of purchase including date, model and serial number must be maintained and presented to an authorized
