finger on switch. Be sure switch is off when plugging in.
• DON'T ABUSE CORD - Never carry hedge trimmer by cord or yank it to disconnect

moving. Make sure trimmer switch is off when clearing jammed material from blades.
Do not grasp the exposed cutting blades or cutting edges when picking up or holding
the hedge trimmer.
• DON'T FORCE HEDGE TRIMMER - It will do the job better and with less likelihood of

trimmer when you are tired.
• DISCONNECT HEDGE TRIMMER from the power supply when not in use or when

best performance and to reduce the risk of injury. Inspect extension cord periodically
and replace if damaged. Keep handles dry, clean and free from oil and grease.
Lubricate blades as needed (refer to maintenance section).
• CHECK DAMAGED PARTS - before further use of the hedge trimmer, a guard or
other part that is damaged should be carefully checked to determine that it will operate
properly and perform its intended function. Check for alignment of moving parts,
binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, mounting and any other condition that may
affect its operation. A guard or other part that is damaged should be properly repaired
or replaced by an authorized service center unless otherwise indicated elsewhere in
this manual.
DANGER: Laceration hazard. Keep hands away from blades. Keep both hands on
handles when power is on.
CAUTION: Laceration hazard. Blades coast after turn off.
SAFETY WARNINGS: DOUBLE INSULATION
Double insulated tools are constructed throughout with two separate layers of electrical
insulation or one double thickness of insulation between you and the tool's electrical
system. Tools built with this insulation system are not intended to be grounded. As a
result, your tool is equipped with a two prong plug which permits you to use extension
cords without concern for maintaining a ground connection.
NOTE: Double insulation does not take the place of normal safety precautions when
operating this tool. The insulation system is for added protection against injury resulting
from a possible electrical insulation failure within the tool.
Replacement parts: When servicing all tools, USE IDENTICAL REPLACEMENT
PARTS. Repair or replace damaged cords.
