IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING!
Read and understand all instructions. Failure
to follow all instructions listed below may
result in electric shock, fire and/or serious
personal injury:
■ Do not allow children or untrained
individuals to use this unit.
■ Check the work area before each use.
Remove all objects such as rocks, broken
glass, nails, wire, or string which can be
thrown or become entangled in the machine.
■ Always wear eye protection with side
shields marked to comply with ANSI Z87.1.
Following this rule will reduce the risk of
serious personal injury.
■ Use safety glasses - always use face or
dust mask if operation is dusty.
■ Protect your lungs. Wear a face or dust
mask if the operation is dusty. Following this
rule will reduce the risk of serious personal
injury.
■ Dress Properly – Do not wear loose clothing
or jewelry. They can be caught in moving
parts. Use of rubber gloves and substantial
footwear is recommended when working
outdoors. Wear protective hair covering to
contain long hair. Wear heavy, long sleeves,
boots, and gloves. Do not wear loose fitting
clothing, short pants, sandals, or go barefoot.
■ Secure long hair above shoulder level to
prevent entanglement in moving parts.
■ Keep Children Away – All visitors should be
kept at a distance from work area.
■ Stay Alert – Watch what you are doing. Use
common sense. Do not operate appliance
when you are tired.
■ Do not operate in poor lighting.
■ Keep all parts of your body away from any
moving part.
■ Do not operate power tools in explosive
atmosphere, such as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Power
tools create sparks which may ignite the dust
or fumes.
■ Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces
such as pipes, radiators, ranges, and
refrigerators. There is an increased risk of
electric shock if your body is grounded.
■ Avoid Dangerous Environment - Don't use
line trimmer in damp or wet locations. Water
entering the line trimmer will increase the risk
of electric shock.
■ Use Right Power Tool - Do not use line
trimmer for any job except that for which it is
intended.
■ Don't Force Power Tool - It will do the job
better and with less likelihood of a risk of
injury at the rate for which it was designed.
■ Don't Overreach – Keep proper footing and
balance at all times.
■ Avoid Accidental Starting - Be sure power
switch is in the locked or off position before
inserting battery pack. Carrying tools with
your finger on power switch or inserting the
battery pack into a tool with switch on invites
accidents.
■ Do not use tool if power switch does not
turn it on or off. Any tool that cannot be
controlled with the power switch is dangerous
and must be repaired if possible or discarded.
■ Disconnect Power - Disconnect battery
pack from the appliance before storing,
servicing, or changing accessories such
as cutting line. Such preventive safety
measures reduce the risk of starting the tool
accidentally.
■ Use only identical replacement parts and
accessories. Use of any other parts may
create a hazard or cause product damage.
■ Maintain tool with care - Replace spool
head if cracked, chipped, or damaged in
any way. Be sure the spool head is properly
installed and securely fastened. Failure to do
so can cause serious injury. Keep handles
dry, clean and free from oil and grease.
■ Check Damaged Parts – Before further
use of the appliance, a guard or other part
that is damaged should be carefully checked
to determine that it will operate properly
