CUTTING TIPS
See Figures 4.
DANGER:
Never cut near electric cords or lines. If blade jams on
any electrical cord or line, DO NOT TOUCH THE BLADE!
IT CAN BECOME ELECTRICALLY LIVE AND VERY
DANGEROUS. Continue to hold the grass shear by the
handle or lay it down and away from you in a safe manner.
Disconnect the electrical service to the damaged line or
cord before attempting to free the blade from the line or
cord. Contact with the blade, other conductive parts of
the grass shear, or live electric cords or lines will result in
death by electrocution or serious injury.
WARNING:
Clear the area to be cut before each use. Remove all
objects such as cords, lights, wire, or loose string which
can become entangled in the cutting blade and create a
risk of serious personal injury.
Do not force the grass shear through heavy grass. This
can cause the blades to bind and slow down. If the blades
slow down, reduce the pace.
If blades do become jammed, stop the motor, allow the
blades to stop, and install padlock (not included) or lock-out
pin into switch trigger hole before attempting to remove
the obstruction.
