IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: WHEN USING ELECTRIC HEDGE TRIMMERS, BASIC SAFETY PRECAUTIONS SHOULD ALWAYS BE
FOLLOWED TO REDUCE THE
RISK
OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK AND PERSONAL INJURY, INCLUDING THE
FOLLOWING:
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS!
h
Replacement Parts
-When servicing use only identical
replacement parts.
Polarized Plugs
-
To reduce the risk of electric shock,
this equipment has a polarized plug (one blade is wider
then the other). This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only
one way.
If
the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse
the plug.
If
it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician
to install the proper outlet. Do not change the plug in any
way.
Avoid Dangerous Environment
-
Don’t use hedge
trimmers in damp or wet locations.
-
-
Keep
Children Away
-
All
visitors should be kept at a
distance from work area.
Dress Properly
-
Do
not wear loose clothing or jewellery.
They can be caught in moving parts. Use of rubber gloves
and substantial footwear is recommended when working
outdoors. Wear protective hair covering to contain long
hair.
Use Safety Glasses
-
Always use face or dust mask
if
operation is dusty.
Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter
(GFCI) protection
should be provided on the circuit(s) or outlet(s) to be used
for the hedge trimmer. Receptacles are available having
built-in GFCI protection and may be used forthis measure
of safety.
Use Right Appliance
-
Do not use appliance for any job
except that for which it is intended.
WARNING
-To reduce the risk of electric shock, use only
with an extension cord intended for outdoor use, such as
SJTW-A or SJTOW-A.
Extension Cords
-
Make sure your extension cord is in
good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure to
use one heavy enough to carry the current your product
will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line
voltage resulting in
loss
of power and overheating. Table
1 shows the correct size to use depending on cord length
and nameplate ampere rating.
If
in doubt, use the next
heavier gage. The smaller the gage number, the heavier
the cord.
