IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• Wear heavy long pants, boots, and gloves. Avoid loose garments or jewellery that could get caught
in moving parts of the machine or its motor.
• Do not force the tool. Use the correct tool for your application. The correct tool will work more
efficiently and safely when it is used at the rate for which it was designed.
• Do not operate the equipment while barefoot or when wearing sandals or similar lightweight
footwear. Wear protective footwear that will protect your feet and improve your footing on slippery
surfaces.
• Secure long hair so it is above shoulder level to prevent entanglement in any moving parts.
• Keep firm footing and balance. Do not overreach. Overreaching can result in loss of balance.
• Turn off all controls before unplugging.
• Do not allow children or untrained individuals to use this unit.
• Avoid accidental start-ups. Be sure the power switch is not on before plugging in. Turn off power
switch before unplugging.
• Do not use the tool if the switch does not turn it on or off. Any tool that cannot be controlled with
the switch is dangerous, and must be repaired.
• Do not use with damaged cord or plug. If the tool is not working as it should, or if it has been
dropped, damaged, left outdoors, or dropped into water, return it to an authorized service centre.
• Do not leave the tool unattended when plugged in. Unplug from the power outlet when not in use,
before servicing, and before storing the tool. Such preventative safety measures reduce the risk
of starting the tool accidentally.
• Keep all bystanders, children, and pets at least 50' (15 m) away.
• Do not operate this unit when you are tired, ill, or under the influence of alcohol, drugs, or
medication.
• Do not operate in poor lighting.
• Keep all parts of your body away from any moving parts and all hot surfaces of the unit.
• Do not put any object into openings. Do not use with any opening blocked. Keep openings free of
dust, lint, hair, and anything that may reduce air flow.
• Check the work area before each use. Remove all objects that can be thrown or become entangled
in the machine, such as rocks, broken glass, nails, wire, or string.
• Do not pull or carry by the cord, use the cord as a handle, close a door on a cord, or pull the cord
around sharp edges or corners. Do not run appliances over the cord. Keep the cord away from
heated surfaces.
• Do not unplug by pulling on the cord. To unplug, grasp the plug, not the cord.
• Do not handle the plug or any other appliances with wet hands.
• Use only identical manufacturer's replacement parts and accessories. Use of any other parts may
create a hazard or cause product damage.
