SAFETY WARNINGS

Cordless Pole Hedge Trimmer Safety Warnings

  1. 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.
  2. 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 start-ing and resultant personal injury from the blades.
  3. When transporting or storing the hedge trim-mer, always fit the blade cover. Proper handling of the hedge trimmer will decrease the risk of personal injury from the blades.
  4. When clearing jammed material or servicing the unit, make sure all power switches are off and the battery pack is removed or discon-nected. Unexpected actuation of the hedge trim-mer while clearing jammed material or servicing may result in serious personal injury.
  5. Hold the hedge trimmer by insulated gripping surfaces only, because the blade may contact hidden wiring. Blades contacting a “live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the hedge trim-mer “live” and could give the operator an electric shock.
  6. Keep all power cords and cables away from cutting area. Power cords or cables may be hid-den in hedges or bushes and can be accidentally cut by the blade.
  7. 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.
  8. To reduce the risk of electrocution, never use the pole hedge trimmer near any electrical power lines. Contact with or use near power lines may cause serious injury or electric shock result-ing in death.
  9. Always use two hands when operating the pole hedge trimmer. Hold the pole hedge trimmer with both hands to avoid loss of control.
  10. Always use head protection when operating the pole hedge trimmer overhead. Falling debris can result in serious personal injury.
