e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at
all times. This enables better control of the power tool in
unexpected situations.
f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep
your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts.
Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in moving parts.

4) Power tool use and care
a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for
your application. The correct power tool will do the job better
and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it
on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the
switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the
battery pack from the power tool before making any
adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools.
Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the
power tool accidentally.
d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do
not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these
instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are
dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding
of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition
that may affect the power tool’s operation. If damaged,
have the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are
caused by poorly maintained power tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained
cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and
are easier to control.
g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc., in
accordance with these instructions, taking into account the
3
working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of
the power tool for operations different from those intended could
result in a hazardous situation.
5) Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person
using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that
the safety of the power tool is maintained.
HEDGE TRIMMER SAFETY WARNINGS
DANGER:
Keep hands away from blade. Contact with blade
will result in serious personal injury.
• Use both hands when operating the hedge trimmer. Using
one hand could cause loss of control and result in serious
personal injury.
• Keep all parts of the body away from the cutter blade. Do not
remove cut material or hold material to be cut when blades
are moving. Make sure the switch is off when clearing jammed
material. Blades coast after turn off. A moment of inattention
while operating the hedge trimmer may result in serious personal
injury.
WARNING: Only use with

handle and guard properly
assembled to hedge trimmer. The use of the hedge trimmer without
the proper guard or handle provided may result in serious personal
injury.
• Carry the hedge trimmer by the handle with the cutter blade stopped.
Proper handling of the hedge trimmer will reduce possible personal injury
from the cutter blades.
• Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces only,
because the cutter blade may contact hidden wiring. Cutter
blades contacting a “live” wire may make exposed metal parts of
the power tool “live” and could give the operator an electric shock.
• Keep extension cord away from cutting area. During operation
the extension cord may be hidden in shrubs and can be
accidentally cut by the blade.
• Check the hedge for foreign objects, e.g. wire fences.
CAUTION: Do not expose to rain.
