◾
Exposure to fire or temperature above 212 °F (100°C) may cause explosion.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR BRUSH CUTTER & TRIMMER
When replacing the cutting line, use no more than 2.4 mm nylon line; using heavier lines than
◾
recommended by the manufacturer increases the load on the motor and reduces its operating speed.
This results in overheating and damage to the trimmer.
To reduce the risk of serious injury, never use wire or metal-reinforced line or other material in place of
◾
the nylon cutting lines.
Pieces of wire could break off and be thrown at high speed toward the operator or bystanders.
Replace a cracked, damaged or worn-out cutting head immediately, even if damage is limited
◾
to superficial cracks.
Such attachments may shatter at high speed and cause serious or fatal injury.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
If the power tool should start to vibrate abnormally or become noisy, stop the motor and check
◾
immediately for the cause. Abnormal noise is generally a warning of trouble.
◾ Make sure all proper guards and other safety devices are properly and securely attached before using this
product. Do not operate without guards in place.
◾ Do not charge the battery pack in rain, or in wet locations.
◾ Do not dispose of the battery in a fire.
The cells may explode. Check with local codes for possible special disposal instructions.
◾ Do not open or mutilate the battery.
Released electrolyte is corrosive and may cause damage to the eyes or skin. It may be toxic if swallowed.
◾ Battery tools do not have to be plugged into an electrical outlet; therefore,
they are always in operating condition. Be aware of possible hazards even when the tool is not
operating. Take care when performing maintenance or service.
◾ Do not wash with a hose; avoid getting water in motor and electrical connections.
