Safety (continued)

Operating the Hedge Trimmer

ALWAYS wear eye, ear,

and hand protection while

operating this unit!

ALWAYS protect yourself from hazards

such as thorny brush and flying debris

by wearing gloves and close fitting

clothing that covers arms and legs.

Never wear shorts. Don’t wear loose

clothing or items such as jewelry that

could get caught in machinery or

underbrush. Secure long hair so it is

above shoulder level.

USE EXTREME CAUTION

when operating near fences

or electric wiring.

NEVER cut metal objects

or wire with the blade.

ALWAYS stop the engine and install

the blade cover before moving to

another work site, and maintain a firm

footing while operating or carrying the

trimmer.

ALWAYS stop the engine before

removing branches or debris from

the cutters! Never allow the cutters

to contact buildings or other hard

objects!

AVOID using or storing this unit in a wet

environment. Water on the cutters may

enter the gearcase and damage your unit.

ALWAYS keep proper footing and do

not overreach. Maintain your balance at

all times during operation.

NEVER operate this unit if the

safety guard has been removed or

damaged!

NEVER allow children to use

the unit. Avoid operating near

bystanders.

AVOID cutting large or extremely

“woody” branches. Doing so can shorten

cutter life, and may also damage the

gearcase.

ALWAYS grip support handle

with right hand and throttle

handle with left hand.
