shock. To reduce the risk of electrocution, never
operate this power tool in the vicinity of any wires or
cables (power, etc.) which may be carrying electric
current. Electricity can jump from one point to anoth-
er by means of arcing. Higher voltage increases the
distance electricity can arc. Electricity can also move
through branches, especially if they are wet. Maintain
a clearance of at least 30 feet (10 m) between the
pole trimmer (including any branches it is contacting)
and any electrical line carrying live current. Before
working with less clearance, contact your electric
utility and make sure the current is turned off.
9. This power tool has a large range. In order to reduce
the risk of personal or even fatal injury to bystand-
ers from falling objects or inadvertent contact with
the moving blades of your power tool always keep
bystanders at least 30 feet (10 m) away when the
power tool is running.
