SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Use an outdoor extension cord marked "W-A"
or "W". These cords are rated for outdoor use
and reduce the risk of electric shock.
c) Don't expose power tools to rain or wet
conditions. Water entering a power tool will
increase the risk of electric shock.
d) Handle the cord carefully. Never use the
cord to carry the tool or pull the plug from an
outlet. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp
edges or moving parts. Replace damaged
cords immediately. Damaged cords increase
the risk of electric shock.
3. TOOL USE AND CARE
a) Do not use this tool without a guard
attached.
b) Do not use tool if switch does not turn
it "ON" or "OFF". A tool that cannot be
controlled with the switch is dangerous and
must be repaired.
c) The rotating line performs a cutting
function. Use carefully when trimming around
screens and plantings.
d) Disconnect the tool from the power
source before making any adjustments,
changing accessories, or storing the tool.
Such preventative safety measures reduce the
risk of starting the tool accidentally.
A
e) Store idle tools indoors and out of reach
of children and other untrained persons.
Tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained
users.
f) Check damaged parts before further
use of the tool. A guard or other part that
12
is damaged should be replaced. Check for
misalignment or binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts, and any other condition that
may affect the tool's operation. If damaged,
have the tool serviced before using. Many
accidents are caused by poorly maintained
tools.
g) When being used as an edger, stones
and other objects can be thrown out at
high speeds by the line. The tool and guard
are designed to reduce this danger. However,
precautions should be taken to reduce the risk.
Keep people and pets a safe distance away
and work away from nearby solid objects such
as walls, steps, large stones and trees to avoid
rebound (ricochet).
h) Keep power cord away from rotating
line. If the cord becomes damaged, unplug it
from the power supply before moving tool or
examining the damage. A damaged cord must
be replaced before further use.
4. SERVICE
a) Tool service must be performed only
by qualified repair personnel. Service
or maintenance performed by unqualified
personnel could result in a risk of injury.
b) When servicing a tool, use only identical
replacement parts. Follow instructions in
the Maintenance section of this manual.
Use of unauthorized parts or failure to follow
Maintenance Instructions may create a risk of
electric shock or injury.
