correct size to use depending on cord
length and nameplate ampere rating. If
in doubt, use the next heavier gauge.
The smaller the gauge number, the
heavier the cord. To reduce the risk of
disconnection of the appliance from the
extension cord during operation, use the
extension cord retainer described in this
manual.
WARNING:
Outdoor use extension cords:
To reduce the risk of electric shock, use
only with an extension cord intended for
outdoor use, such as an extension cord
of type SW-A, SOW-A, STW-A, STOW-A,
SJW-A, SJOW-A, SJTW-A, or SJTOW-A.
IMPORTANT WARNINGS FOR STRING TRIMMERS
• The guard must be installed before
trimming or edging - if not, the motor
will overheat.
• When replacing the AFS outfeed line,
use only .060" diameter TWISTED line
- otherwise the unit will not function
properly.
• When replacing the HDL fixed line
please call 1-800-4-MY-HOME for
more information.
SAFETY WARNINGS
DOUBLE INSULATION
NOTE: This symbol denotes Double
Insulation. Double insulated tools are
constructed throughout with two
separate layers of electrical insulation or
one double thickness of insulation
between you and the tool's electrical
system. Tools built with this insulation
system are not intended to be grounded.
As a result, your tool is equipped with a
two prong plug which permits you to use
extension cords without concern for
maintaining a ground connection.
NOTE: Double insulation does not take
the place of normal safety precautions
when operating this tool. The insulation
system is for added protection against
injury resulting from a possible electrical
insulation failure within the tool.
REPLACEMENT PARTS: When
servicing all tools, USE IDENTICAL
REPLACEMENT PARTS.
POLARIZED PLUGS
Repair or replace damaged cords.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, this
equipment has a polarized plug (one
blade is wider than the other). This

Recommended
• Do not bump the feed head against the
ground - it will disrupt the feed mechanism.
• Angle tool slightly (5˚ to 10˚) when
trimming.
• Always use the cord retainer.
• Wear long pants and substantial
footwear to protect yourself from injury
caused by flying debris. This is
especially important when edging with
the appliance.
equipment must be used with a suitable
3 wire outdoor extension cord. Polarized
connections will fit together only one
way. Make sure that the receptacle end
of the extension cord has large and small
blade slot widths. If the plug does not fit
fully into the extension cord, reverse the
plug. If it still does not fit, obtain a
suitable extension cord. If the extension
cord does not fit fully into the outlet,
contact a qualified electrician to install the
proper outlet. Do not change the tool plug
or extension cord in any way.
