GENERAL SAFETY RULES

                         Read and understand all 

instructions. Failure to follow all instructions 

listed below may result in electric shock, fire, 

and/or serious personal injury.

WARNING:

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS

 

■ Know your hedge trimmer. Read and understand 

the operator’s manual and observe the warnings 

and instruction labels affixed to the hedge 

trimmer.

 

■ Stay alert — watch what you are doing and 

use common sense when operating a power 

hedge trimmer. Do not use hedge trimmer while 

tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, 

or medication. A moment of inattention while 

operating power hedge trimmers may result in 

serious personal injury. 

 

■ Do not allow children or untrained individuals to 

use this unit.

 

■ Use Safety Glasses — always wear eye 

protection with side shields marked to comply 

with ANSI Z87.1.

 

■ Protect your lungs. Wear a face or dust mask 

if the operation is dusty. Following this rule will 

reduce the risk of serious personal injury.

 

■ Dress Properly — Do not wear loose clothing or 

jewelry. Contain long hair. Loose clothes, jewelry, 

or long hair can get caught in moving parts.

 

■ Wear heavy long pants, long sleeves, boots, and 

gloves. Do not wear loose fitting clothing, short 

pants, sandals, or jewelry of any kind. Do not go 

barefoot.

 

■ Secure long hair so it is above shoulder level to 

prevent entanglement in any moving parts.

 

■ Keep Children Away — keep all bystanders, 

children, and pets at least 50 feet away.

 

■ Use Right Appliance – do not use appliance for 

any job except that for which it is intended.

 

■ Don’t Force Hedge Trimmer. It will do the job 

better and less with likelihood of risk of injury at 

the rate for which it was designed

 

■ Disconnect Hedge Trimmer – remove battery from 

hedge trimmer when not in use, before servicing, 

when changing accessories, such as blade and 

the like.

 

■ Do Not Overreach — Keep proper footing and 

balance at all times. Proper footing and balance 

enables better control of the hedge trimmer in 

unexpected situations. Do not use on a ladder or 

unstable support.

 

■ Do not operate in poor lighting.

 

■ Keep hands, face, and feet at a safe distance from 

moving parts. Do not touch or try to stop the cutting 

blades when they are moving.

 

■ Do not use hedge trimmer if switch does not 

turn it on or off. A hedge trimmer that cannot be 

controlled with the switch is dangerous and must 

be repaired.

 

■ Avoid Accidental Starting — Be sure switch is 

in the locked or off position before plugging into 

power cord. Carrying hedge trimmers with your 

finger on the switch or plugging the power cord 

into a hedge trimmer with the switch on invites 

accidents.

 

■ Avoid Dangerous Environments — Do not use the 

hedge trimmer in damp or wet locations. Do not 

operate the hedge trimmer in rain.

 

■ Maintain Hedge Trimmer with Care — Follow 

instructions for lubrication and changing 

accessories, keep handles dry, clean and free from 

oil and grease. Keep cutting blades sharp and 

clean. Properly maintained hedge trimmers with 

sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are 

easier to control and reduce risk of injury.

 

■ Check for misalignment or binding of moving 

parts, breakage of parts, and any other condition 

that may affect the hedge trimmer’s operation. If 

damaged, have the hedge trimmer serviced before 

using. A guard or any other part that is damaged 

should be carefully checked to determine that it will 

operate properly and perform its intended function. 

Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained 

hedge trimmers.
