To reduce the risk of injury from blade
contact, be absolutely sure that the cut-

obstructions and objects, including the

Your power tool is a one-person
machine. Do not allow other persons in
the general work area, even when
starting.

Left-Handers
Left hand on the control handle and right
hand on the loop handle.
Make sure you have firm and secure
footing and hold the unit so that the
cutting blades are always away from
your body.
Warning!
Never attempt to operate
your power tool with one
hand. Loss of control of
the power tool resulting in
serious or fatal injury may
result. To reduce the risk
of cut injuries, keep hands and feet
away from the cutting blades. Never
touch moving cutting blades with your
hand or any other part of your body. Do
not touch the cutting blades while the
motor is running. If the cutting blades
become jammed by thick branches or
other obstructions, switch off the motor
immediately, move retaining latch to ƒ
and remove the battery before attempt-
ing to free the blades.
Warning!
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing
and balance at all times. Special care
must be taken in slippery conditions
(wet ground, snow) and in difficult, over-
grown terrain. Watch for hidden
obstacles such as tree stumps, roots
and ditches to avoid stumbling. For bet-
ter footing, clear away fallen branches,
scrub and cuttings. Be extremely cau-
tious when working on slopes or uneven
ground.
Working Conditions
Operate your power tool only under
good visibility and daylight conditions
only. Work carefully.
Do not cut any material other than
hedges or similar soft vegetation. Do not
cut stems greater than 17 mm (0.7 inch)
thick.
Warning!
If the vegetation being cut or the sur-
rounding ground is coated with a
chemical substance (such as an active
pesticide or herbicide), read and follow
the instructions and warnings that
accompanied the substance at issue.
