DANGER – Keep hands away from blade. Contact with blade will
result in serious personal injury.
•
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.
EXTENSION CORD. Make sure your extension cord is in good
condition. When using an extension cord, be sure it is heavy enough
to carry the current your product will draw. An undersized extension
cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and
overheating. The following table shows the correct size to use
depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt,
use the next heavier gage. The smaller the gage number, the
heavier the cord.

WARNING: Use out door extension cords marked SW-A, SOW-A,
STW-A, SJW-A, or SJTW-A. These cords are rated for outdoor use
and reduce the risk of electric shock.
DOUBLE INSULATION—Double Insulation is a concept in safety in
electric power tools, which eliminates the need for the usual
three-wire grounded power cord. All exposed metal parts are isolated
from the internal metal motor components with protecting insulation.
Double insulated tools do not need to be grounded.
NOTE: The double insulated system is intended to protect the user
from shock resulting from a break in the tool's internal insulation.
Observe all normal safety precautions to avoid electrical shock.
It is possible to tie the extension cord and power cord in a knot to
prevent them from becoming disconnected during use.
Make the knot as shown, then connect the plug end of
the power cord into the receptacle end of the extension
cord. This method can also be used to tie two extension
cords together.

Not Recommended
•
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.
•
Keep cable away from cutting area. During operation the
cable may be hidden in shrubs and can be accidentally cut by
the blade.
WARNING – Only use with handle and guard properly assembled to
hedge trimmer. The use of the hedge trimmer without the proper
guard or handle provided may result in serious personal injury.
POLARIZED PLUGS—To reduce the risk of electric shock, this
equipment has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other).
This equipment must be used with a suitable polarized 2 wire or 3
wire extension cord. Polarized connections will fit together only one
way. Make sure that the receptacle end of the extension cord has
large and small blade slot widths. If the plug does not fit fully into the
extension cord, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit obtain a suitable
extension cord. If the extension cord does not fit fully into the outlet,
contact a qualified electrician to install the proper outlet. Do not
change the tool plug or extension cord in any way.
CHECK DAMAGED PARTS – Before further use of the tools, 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. Call our customer service help line at
1-800-633-1501 for assistance.
