Failure to follow all safety instructions listed below, can
result in serious personal injury.
 Do not allow children or untrained individuals to use this

footwear is recommended when working outdoors. Wear
heavy, long pants, long sleeves, boots, and gloves. Do
not wear loose fitting clothing or jewelry or anything that

 Do not operate in poor lighting.
 Keep all parts of your body away from any moving part.
 Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres,
such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases, or
dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust
or fumes.
 To reduce the risk of electric shock, this tool has a polar-
ized plug (one blade is wider than the other) and will require
the use of a polarized extension cord. The plug will fit into
a polarized extension cord only one way. If the plug does
not fit fully into the extension cord, reverse the plug. If the
plug still does not fit, obtain a correct polarized extension
cord. A polarized extension cord will require the use of a
polarized wall outlet. This plug will fit into the polarized
wall outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into
the wall outlet, reverse the plug. If the plug still does not
fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper wall
outlet. Do not change the equipment plug, extension cord
receptacle, or extension cord plug in any way.
 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 Environments - Don't expose trimmers
to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will
increase the risk of electric shock.
 WARNING! – To reduce the risk of electric shock - Use
outdoor extension cordsmarked W-A, W, SW-A, SOW-A,
STW-A, STOW-A, SJW-A, SJTW-A, or SJTOW-A. These
cords are rated for outdoor use and reduce the risk of elec-
tric shock.
 Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) protection should
be provided on the circuit(s) or outlet(s) to be used for the
gardening appliance. Receptacles are available having
built-in GFCI protection and may be used for this measure
of safety.
 Use Right Appliance - Do not force trimmer. Use the cor-
rect tool for your application. The correct tool will do the
job better and safer at the rate for which it is designed.
 Don't Force Appliance – It will do the job better and with
less likelihood of a risk of injury 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.
 Do not overreach – Keep firm footing and balance. Over-
reaching can result in loss of balance.
 Avoid Accidental Start – Do not carry plugged in appliance
with finger on trigger. Be sure the switch trigger is not en-
gaged before plugging in.
 Do not use tool if switch trigger does not turn it on or off.
Any tool that cannot be controlled with the switch trigger
is dangerous and must be repaired.
 Disconnect appliance – Remove trimmer from power
source before storing, servicing, changing accessories
such as cutting line and when not in use. Such preven-
tive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool
accidentally.
 Use only identical manufacturer's replacement parts and
accessories. Use of any other parts may create a hazard
or cause product damage.
 Maintain appliance with care - Replace string head if
cracked, chipped, or damaged in any way. Be sure the
string head is properly installed and securely fastened.
Failure to do so can cause serious injury.
 Follow instructions for lubricating and changing
accessories. Inspect appliance cord periodically, and
if damaged, have it repaired by an authorized service
facility. Inspect extension cords periodically and replace
