and fire.

other metal objects, like paper clips, coins, keys, nails,
screws, or other small metal objects that can make a
connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the
battery terminals together may cause burns or a fire.

battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally occurs,
flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek

Use both hands when operating the hedge trimmer. Using
one hand could cause loss of control and result in serious
personal injury.
•
Keep all parts of the body away from the cutter blade. Do
not remove cut material or hold material to be cut when
blades are moving. Make sure the switch is off when clearing
jammed material. Blades coast after turn off. A moment of
inattention while operating the hedge trimmer may result in serious
personal injury.
•
Carry the hedge trimmer by the handle with the cutter blade
stopped. Proper handling of the hedge trimmer will reduce
possible personal injury from the cutter blades.
•
Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces only,
because the cutter blade may contact hidden wiring or its own
cord. Cutter blades contacting a "live" wire may make exposed
metal parts of the power tool "live" and could give the operator
an electric shock.
