sure to wear strong, durable, work clothing;
shirts should be long-sleeved shirts and
pants should be full-length pants reaching
down to the ankles.
• Always be sure to wear and helmet and
face protector when using your hedge-
trimmer.
• When using your hedge-trimmer, always be

WARNINGS CONSIDERING HANDLING OF FUEL
• The engine of the RedMax hedge-trimmer
is designed to run on a mixed fuel which
contains highly flammable gasoline. This
fuel is highly flammable and you should
never store cans of fuel or refill the tank of
the hedge-trimmer in any place where
there is a boiler, stove, wood fire, electrical
sparks, welding sparks, or any other source
of heat or fire which might ignite the fuel.
• Smoking while operating the hedge-trimmer
or refilling its fuel tank is extremely
dangerous. Always be sure to keep lit
cigarettes away from the hedge-trimmer at
all times.
• When refilling the tank always turn off the
engine first and take a careful look around
to make sure that there are no sparks or
open flames anywhere nearby before
refueling.
• If any fuel spillage occurs during refueling,
always be sure to use a dry rag to wipe any
fuel which has been spilled onto the hedge-
trimmer before turning the engine back on
again.
• After refueling, screw the fuel cap back
tightly onto the fuel tank and then carry the
hedge-trimmer to a spot 10 feet or more
away from where it was refueled before
turning on the engine.
