Safety instructions for hedge trimmer
attachments
• Keep all parts of the body away from the blade. Do
not remove cut material or hold material to be cut
when blades are moving. Blades continue to move
after the switch is turned off. A moment of inattention
while operating the hedge trimmer may result in
serious personal injury.
• Carry the hedge trimmer by the handle with the
blade stopped and taking care not to operate any
power switch. Proper carrying of the hedge trimmer
will decrease the risk of inadvertent starting and
resultant personal injury from the blades.
• When transporting or storing the hedge trimmer,
always fit the blade cover. Proper handling of the
hedge trimmer will decrease the risk of personal
injury from the blades.
• When clearing jammed material or servicing the unit,
make sure all power switches are off and the power
cord is disconnected. Unexpected actuation of the
hedge trimmer while clearing jammed material or
servicing may result in serious personal injury.
• Hold the hedge trimmer by insulated gripping
surfaces only, because the blade may contact
hidden wiring or its own cord. Blades contacting a
"live" wire may make exposed metal parts of the
hedge trimmer "live" and could give the operator an
electric shock.
• 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.
• 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.
• To reduce the risk of electrocution, never use the
extended-reach hedge trimmer near any electrical
power lines. Contact with or use near power lines
may cause serious injury or electric shock resulting
in death.
• Always use two hands when operating the extended-
reach hedge trimmer. Hold the extended-reach
hedge trimmer with both hands to avoid loss of
control. Always use head protection when operating
the extended-reach hedge trimmer overhead. Falling
debris can result in serious personal injury.
