do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was
designed.
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.
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.
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.
Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or
binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and
any other condition that may affect the power
tools operation. If damaged, have the power tool
repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by
poorly maintained power tools.
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are
less likely to bind and are easier to control.
Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc.,
in accordance with these instructions and in the
manner intended for the particular type of power
tool, taking into account the 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.
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
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THIS
POWER TOOL
a DANGER: KEEP HANDS AWAY FROM BLADE
a WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electric
shock, or 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.
• Carry the hedge trimmer by the handle with the
cutter blade stopped. When transporting or storing
the hedge trimmer always fit the cutting device
cover. 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 or its own cord. 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 cable away from the cutting area. During
operation the cable may be hidden in shrubs and can be
accidentally cut by the blade.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
ELECTRICAL OUTLETS AND EXTENSION
CORDS
a WARNING: Do not touch the terminals of the plug
when installing or removing the extension cord
from the plug.
Double insulated power tools are equipped with a
polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other) and will
require the use of a polarized extension cord. The power
tool's plug will fit into a polarized extension cord only one
way. If the plug does not fit fully into the extension cord,
reverse the plug. If the plug still does not fit, obtain a
correct polarized extension cord.
A polarized extension cord will require the use of a
polarized wall outlet. The plug will fit into the polarized wall
outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the
wall outlet, reverse the plug. If the plug still does not fit,
contact a qualified electrician to install the proper outlet.
Do not change or alter the power tool plug, the wall outlet,
or the extension cord plug in any way.
Double insulation eliminates the need for a three-wire
grounded power cord and grounded power supply system.
This is applicable only to Class II (double-insulated) tools.
This power tool is a double-insulated tool.
a WARNING: GFCI protection should be provided
on all circuits or outlets to be used for the power
tool. Receptacles are available having built-in
GFCI protection and should be used for this
measure of protection.
NOTE: Double insulation does not take the place of
normal safety precautions when operating the power
tool.
Before plugging in the power tool, make sure that the
outlet voltage supplied is within the voltage marked on the
power tool's data plate. Do not use "AC only" rated power
tools with a DC power supply.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, use the power tool
only with an extension cord intended for outdoor use, such
as an extension cord of cord type: SW-A, SOW-A, STW-A,
STOW-A, SJW-A, SJOW-A, SJTW-A. or SJTOW-A.
When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy
enough to carry the current that your power tool will draw.
An undersized extension cord will cause a drop in line
voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. The
table below shows the correct size to use depending on
cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use
the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number,
the heavier the cord.

VIBRATION EXPOSURE
Exposure to vibrations through prolonged use of power
tools could cause blood vessel or nerve damage in the
fingers, hands, and joints of people prone to circulation
disorders or abnormal swelling. Prolonged use in cold
weather has been linked to blood vessel damage in
otherwise healthy people. If symptoms occur such as
