cause loss of control and 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.

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.

may be hidden in shrubs and can be accidentally cut by the blade.
