Electric Safety
1. Ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) protection should
be provided on the circuit(s) or outlet(s) to be used for
this electric pole hedge trimmer. Receptacles are available
having built-in GFCI protection and may be used for this
measure of safety.
2. To prevent electric shock, use only with an extension cord
suitable for outdoor use, such as SW-A, SOW-A, STW-A,
STOW-A, SJW-A, SJOW-A, SJTW-A, or SJTOW-A.
Before use, check that the extension cord is in good
condition. When using an extension cord, make sure to
use one heavy enough to carry the current product. An
undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting
in loss of power and overheating.

WARNING
Electric shock may cause SEVERE INJURY or
DEATH. Heed these warnings:
• Do not allow any part of the hedge trimmer to make
contact with water while it is in operation. If the
appliance becomes wet while turned off, wipe dry
before starting.
• Use only a UL-, CSA- or ETL-rated extension cord for
outdoor, all-weather use.
• Do not use an extension cord over 100 ft (30 m).
• Do not touch the appliance or its plug with wet hands
or while standing in water. Wearing rubber boots
offers some protection.

3. To reduce the risk of electric shock, this appliance has
a polarized plug (i.e., one blade is wider than the other).
Use this appliance only with a polarized UL-, CSA-, or
ETL-listed extension cord recommended for outdoor,
all-weather use.
The appliance plug will fit into a polarized extension
cord only one way. If the appliance 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. The extension cord 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 modify the appliance
plug, extension cord receptacle, or extension cord plug in
any way.
4. To prevent the appliance cord from disconnecting from
the extension cord during operation, use the onboard
extension cord restraint hook and/or make a knot with the
two cords as shown in Table 1.
