MAINTENANCE AND
STORAGE OF TRIMMER
1. Maintain trimmer with care.
• Inspect trimmer cord periodically,
and if damaged, have it repaired by
a qualified service facility.
• Inspect extension cords periodically
and replace if damaged.
• If trimmer is not working properly,
has been dropped, damaged, left
outdoors, or dropped into water,
have it repaired by a qualified ser-
vice center.
• Keep handles dry, clean, and free
from oil and grease.
• Keep guards in place and in work-
ing order.
2. Check damaged parts.
• If a part is damaged, carefully check
the damaged part before using the
trimmer. Make sure the part will
operate properly and perform its
intended function.
• Check for alignment of moving
parts, binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts, mounting, and
any other condition that may affect
its operation.
• A guard or other part that is dam-
aged should be properly repaired or
replaced by a qualified service center
unless indicated elsewhere in this
manual.
• Use only geniune Remington®
replacement parts and accessories.
These are available from your local
dealer. Use of any non-Reming-
ton® parts or accessories could lead
to injury to the user, damage to the
unit, and void you warranty.
3. Servicing of Double-Insulated
Tools:
• In a double-insulated tool, two
systems of insulation are provided
instead of grounding. No ground-
ing means is provided on a double-
insulated tool, nor should a means
for grounding be added to the tool.
Servicing a double-insulated tool
requires extreme care and knowl-
edge of the system, and should
be done only by qualified service
personnel. Replacement parts for
a double-insulated tool must be
identical to the parts they replace.
4. Store idle trimmer indoors. When not
in use, store trimmer and extension
cord indoors in a dry location. Store
trimmer above the reach of children
or in a locked area out of the reach of
children.
This manual is your guide to safe and proper
operation of the trimmer.

Use common sense.

ing trimmer. Be careful not to trip over

4. Do not overreach. Keep proper foot-
ing and balance at all times when

Never yank cord to disconnect from
