19. Maintain the power tool with care – Keep the cutting
edges sharp and clean for optimal performance and to
reduce the risk of injury. Keep the handles dry, clean,
and free from oil and grease. Follow the additional
recommendations described in the maintenance section
of this manual.
20. Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on
and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the
switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
21. Keep all parts of the body away from the cutting blades/
chain. Do not remove cut material or hold material to be
cut when blades/chain are moving. Make sure the switch
is off when clearing jammed material. The blades/chain will
continue moving for a while after the tool is turned off.
A moment of inattention while operating the power tool
may result in serious personal injury.
22. Carry the power tool by the handle with the cutting blade/
chain stopped. When transporting or storing the power
tool, always keep the blades/chain covered.
Proper handling of the garden tool will reduce
possible personal injury from the cutting blades.
23. Hold the product by insulated gripping surfaces only,
because the cutting blades/chain may contact hidden
wiring. Cutting blades/chain contacting a "live" wire may
make exposed metal parts of the product "live"and could
give the operator an electric shock.
24. The unit has not been designed to provide protection
from electric shock in the event of contact with overhead
electric lines. Never use the power tool near any electrical
power lines. Contact with or use near power lines may
cause serious injury or electric shock resulting in death.
Maintain a minimum clearance of 50 ft (15 m) from all
power lines.
