2.1 IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
• Use Right Appliance – Do not use appliance for any job
except that for which it is intended.
• Read the operator’s manual carefully. Be thoroughly
familiar with the controls and the proper use of the
equipment. Know how to stop the unit and disengage the
controls quickly.
• Do not operate the machine in explosive atmospheres,
such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases, or
dust. The machine creates sparks which may ignite the
dust or fumes.
• Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes,
radiators, ranges, and refrigerators. There is an increased
risk of electric shock if your body is grounded.
• Avoid Dangerous Environment — Don’t expose to rain or
use machine in damp or wet locations. Water entering the
machine will increase the risk of electric shock.
• Never allow children to operate the equipment. Never
allow adults to operate the equipment without proper
instruction.
• Always wear safety glasses with side shields that comply
with ANSI Z87 .1- Everyday glasses have only impact
resistant lenses. They are NOT safety glasses. Following
this rule will reduce the risk of eye injury. Use a face
mask if operation is dusty.
• Dress Properly – Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry.
They can be caught in moving parts. Use of rubber gloves
and substantial footwear is recommended when working

• Do not operate the machine while under the influence of
alcohol or drugs.
• Do not overreach — Keep firm footing and balance at all
times. Overreaching can results in loss of balance.

risk of starting the appliance accidentally.
• Before cleaning, repairing, or inspecting, remove the
battery and make certain all moving parts have stopped.
• Never spray water directly into the motor compartment of
the machine.
• Use only identical replacement parts when servicing the
machine. Use of unauthorized parts may create a risk of
serious injury to the user, or damage to the product.
2.2 SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES
• Cleaning, user-maintenance (such as lubrication
adjustment, and the like), operations recommended by the
manufacturer, and a warning to the user that any other
servicing should be performed by an authorized service
representative.
• Do not use near underground electric cables, telephone,
lines, pipes, or hoses. If in doubt, contact your utility or
telephone company to locate underground services.
• If the machine strikes a foreign object, stop the motor,
remove the battery pack, thoroughly inspect the machine
for any damage, and repair the damage before restarting
and operating the machine.
• Maintain Appliance With Care – Keep cutting edge sharp
and clean for best performance and to reduce the risk of
injury.
• Do not overload the machine capacity by cultivating too
deep in a single pass or at too fast a rate.
• Stay alert. Watch what you are doing. Use common sense.
Do not operate the machine when you are tired, ill, or
upset.
• Don’t use in rain.
• Be aware that the equipment may unexpectedly bounce
upward or jump forward if the tines should strike buried
obstacles such as large stones, roots, or stumps.
• Wear hearing protection.
• Ensure that people and pets are at least 50’ (15 m) away
from the machine while in use.
• Ensure that work area is free of slippery spots or
excessive quantities of stone.
• Start the machine carefully according to instructions from
a normal operating position and with feet well away from
the tines. It will do the job better and with less likelihood
of a risk of injury at the rate for which it was designed.
• Keep hands away from blades.
• Remove the battery pack from the machine before
unclogging the tines and when making any repairs,
adjustments, or inspections.
• Never operate the equipment on a slope.
• Use extreme caution when pulling the machine towards

• When not in use, the machine should be stored indoors in
dry, and high or locked-up place – out of reach of
children.
• 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.
• Keep Children Away — All visitors and bystanders
should be kept at a distance of at least 50 feet from work
area.
• Do not use a battery pack or appliance that is damaged or
modified. Damaged or modified batteries may exhibit
unpredictable behavior resulting in fire, explosion or risk
of injury.
• Don’t grasp the exposed cutting blades or cutting edges
when picking up or holding the machine.
• Do not expose a battery pack or appliance to fire or
excessive temperature. Exposure to fire or temperature

130°C can be replaced by the temperature of 265°F.
• Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the
battery pack or appliance outside of the temperature range
specific in the instructions. Charging improperly or at
temperatures outside of the specific range may damage
the battery and increase the risk of fire.

using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure
that the safety of the product is maintained.
• Do not modify or attempt to repair the appliance or the
battery pack (as applicable) except as indicated in the
instructions for use and care.
