HX15, CX15, HX20, CX20 HEAVY-DUTY
FLEX-WING ROTARY CUTTERS
W A R N I N G !
SAFETY CHAIN SHIELDING IS
AVAILABLE FOR ALL CUTTERS.
Because of the possibility of injury or
damage from thrown objects, improperly
used rotary cutters are potentially
dangerous. Optional Front and Safety
Shielding is strongly recommended
for deflecting objects when cutters
are used in a populated area or when
additional safety precautions are
needed. (Refer to Operator’s Manual
for owner’s responsibility and detailed
safety procedures.)
