IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
HEDGE TRIMMER SAFETY WARNINGS
•
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 cutting blade. Do not remove cut material or hold
material to be cut when blades are moving. Make sure the switch is off and the battery has
been removed when clearing jammed material. Blades coast for a short time after the tool
has been turned off. A moment of inattention while operating the hedge trimmer may result in
serious personal injury.
• Carry the hedge trimmer by the handle with the cutting 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 cutting blade may
contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Cutting blades contacting a "live" wire may make
exposed metal parts of the power tool "live" and could give the operator an electric shock.
• DANGER - Keep hands away from blade. Contact with blade will result in serious personal
injury.
• Keep cable away from cutting area. During operation the cable may be hidden in shrubs
and can be accidentally cut by the blade.
