of the hedge trimmer while clearing jammed material
or servicing may result in serious personal injury.
e ) Hold the hedge trimmer by insulated gripping
surfaces only, because the blade may contact

make exposed metal parts of the hedge trimmer "live"
and could give the operator an electric shock.
f ) Keep all power cords and cables away from
cutting area. Power cords or cables may be hidden
in hedges or bushes and can be accidentally cut by
the blade.
g ) Do not use the hedge trimmer in bad weather
conditions, especially when there is a risk of
lightning. This decreases the risk of being struck
by lightning.
