SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
1) Work area
a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered and dark areas invite injuries.
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

5
a) 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.
b) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power
tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
3) Personal safety

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 jewellery. Keep your hair,
clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long
hair can be caught in moving parts.

WARNING:
Always keep both hands on the hedge trimmer handles. Never hold shrubs with
one hand and operate hedge trimmer with the other. Failure to heed this warning
can result in serious injury.
WARNING:
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.
When operating the hedge trimmer, keep the extension cord behind the trimmer.
Never drape it over the hedge being trimmed.
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 attempt to cut stems or twig 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 motor, allow the blades to stop, and
disconnect the plug from the power source 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. Stretch a piece of string along the hedge at the desired height.
Trim the hedge just above the 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.

17
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.
OPERATING THE HEDGE TRIMMER (Fig H )
WARNING:
Read the safety information for safe operation using the blade. Extreme care must
be taken when using blades to ensure safe operation. Refer to Important Safety
Instructions and Specific Safety Rules.
Hold unit firmly with both hands. Always keep your left hand on the telescopic pole
and your right hand on the rear handle. The unit is used for cutting in either
direction in a slow, sweeping action from side to side.
Stand so that you are stable and balanced on both feet. Inspect and clear the
area of any hidden objects.
To protect yourself from electrocution, do not operate within 50 feet of overhead
electrical lines.
Never use the hedge trimmer near power lines, fencing, posts, buildings, or other
immovable objects.
Never use a blade after hitting a hard object without first inspecting it for damage.
Do not use if any damage is detected.
