GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY

WARNINGS

WARNING!
Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference. The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your  mains operated (corded) power tool or battery- operated (cordless) power tool.

  1. Work Area Safety
    a. Keep work area clean and well lit – Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
    b. Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust – Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
    c. Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool – Distractions can cause you to lose control.

  2. Electrical Safety
    a. Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
    b. Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators – There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
    Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions – Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
    d. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
    e. When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.

  3. Personal Safety
    a. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication
    – A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
    b. Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection – Safety equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
    c. Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before plugging in – Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or plugging in power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
    d. Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on – A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
    e. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times
    – This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
    f. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts – Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
    g. If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used – Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.

  4. power Tool Use + Care
    a. Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application – The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
    b. 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.
    c. Disconnect the battery pack from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools – Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
    d. Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool – Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
    e. Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use – Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
    f. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean – Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
    g. Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc., in accordance with these instructions and in the manner intended for the particular type of power tool, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed – Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.

  5. Battery tool use and care
    a. Recharge only with the charger specified by the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with another battery pack.
    b. Use power tools only with specifically designated battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.
    c. When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects, like paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or  other small metal objects, that can make a connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery terminals together may cause burns or a fire.
    d. Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.

  6. Service
    a. Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

CUTTING TIPS

WARNING:
Never cut near electric cords or lines. If blade jams on any electrical cord or line, DO NOT TOUCH THE BLADE! IT CAN BECOME ELECTRICALLY LIVE AND VERY DANGEROUS. Continue to hold the hedge trimmer by the insulated rear handle or lay it down and away from you in a safe manner.
Disconnect the electrical service to the damaged line or cord before attempting to free the blade from the line or cord. Contact with the blade, other conductive parts of the hedge trimmer, or live electric cords or lines will result in death by electrocution or serious injury.

  • Clear the area to be cut before each use. Remove all objects such as cords, lights, wire, or loose string which can become entangled in the cutting blade and create a risk of serious personal injury.
  • Before starting the hedge trimmer, hold the unit with both hands with the cutting blades directed away from you. Always use the hedge trimmer properly.
  • Do not force the hedge trimmer through heavy shrubbery. This can cause the blades to bind and slow  down. If the blades slow down, reduce the pace.
  • Do not try to cut stems or twigs that are larger than 3/4 in. thick, or those obviously too large to feed into the cutting blade. Use a non-powered hand saw or pruning saw to trim large stems.
  • If blades do become jammed, stop the product, allow the blades to stop and remove the battery pack before attempting to remove the obstruction.
  • If desired, you can use a string to help cut your hedge level. Decide how high you want the hedge.
  • Then, stretch a piece of string along the hedge at this height. Trim the hedge just above this guide line of string. Trim the side of a hedge so that it will be slightly narrower at the top. More of the hedge will be exposed when shaped this way, and it will be more uniform.
  • Always hold hedge trimmer with both hands when operating. Use a firm grip on the handles. Never hold shrubs with one hand and operate the hedge trimmer with the other. Improper operation of the hedge trimmer could result in serious injury. The unit is used for cutting in either direction in a slow, sweeping action from side to side.
  • Wear gloves when trimming thorny or prickly growth. When trimming new growth, use a wide sweeping action, so that the stems are fed directly into the cutting blade. Older growth will have thicker stems and will be trimmed easiest by using a sawing movement.
  • The risk of the operation may occurs, such as the sharp tree branches may cut the user’s skin, the blade of the unit may hurt the user’s body. Always wear eye, hearing, hand, foot and body protection to reduce the risk of injury when operating this unit.
