designed for line trimmer use only. Use of any other ac-
cessories or attachments will increase the risk of injury.
 Inspect area to be cut. Remove objects (rocks, broken
glass, nails, wire, string, etc.) which can be thrown or
become entangled in cutting head.
 Keep the air vents clean and free of debris to avoid
overheating the motor. Clean after each use.

lyte is corrosive and may cause damage to the eyes or
skin. It may be toxic if swallowed.
 Do not place battery tools or their batteries near fire or
heat. This will reduce the risk of explosion and possibly
injury.
 Batteries can explode in the presence of a source of ig-
nition, such as a pilot light. To reduce the risk of serious
personal injury, never use any cordless product in the
presence of open flame. An exploded battery can pro-
pel debris and chemicals. If exposed, flush with water
immediately.
 Do not crush, drop or damage battery pack. Do not
use a battery pack or charger that has been dropped or
received a sharp blow. A damaged battery is subject to
explosion. Properly dispose of a dropped or damaged
battery immediately.
 Exercise care in handling batteries in order not to short
the battery with conducting materials such as rings,
bracelets, and keys. The battery or conductor may over-
heat and cause burns.
 Under extreme usage or temperature conditions, battery
leakage may occur. If liquid comes in contact with your
skin, wash immediately with soap and water, then neu-
tralize with lemon juice or vinegar. If liquid gets into your
eyes, flush them with clean water for at least 10 minutes,
then seek immediate medical attention. Following this
rule will reduce the risk of serious personal injury.
