• If you have long hair, tie it back safely to avoid
tangling it in moving parts.
• Before using any power tool, check first for
damaged parts and if found do not use it

Danger!
a) 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.
b) 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.
c) 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.
d) 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.
e) 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.
f) Keep all power cords and cables away from
cutting area. Power cords or cables may
