READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: When using electric hedge
trimmers,
always should be followed to reduce the risk
of fire, electric shock, and personal injury,
including the following:
1. FOR ALL DOUBLE-INSULATED APPLI-
ANCES
1) Replacement parts -
When servicing use only identical re-
placement parts.
2) Polarized appliance connections -
To reduce the risk of electric shock, this
appliance has a polarized plug (one blade
is wider than the other) and will require
the use of a polarized extension cord.The
appliance plug will fit into a polarized
extension cord only one way. If the plug
does not fit fully into the extension cord,
reverse the plug. If the plug still does not
fit, obtain a correct polarized extension
cord. A polarized extension cord will
require the use of a polarized wall outlet.
This plug will fit into the polarized wall
outlet only one way. If the plug does not
fit fully into the wall outlet, reverse the
06
plug. If the plug still does not fit, contact
a qualified electrician to install the proper
wall outlet. Do not change the equipment
plug, extension cord receptacle, or
extension cord plug in any way.
2. FOR ALL HEDGE TRIMMERS

use hedge trimmers in damp or wet
locations.
2) Don't Use In Rain.
3) Keep Children Away - All visitors should

basic safety precautions
circuit(s) or outlet(s) to be used for the
hedge trimmer. Receptacles are available
having built-in GFCI protection and may
be used for an added measure of safety.
7) Use Right Appliance - Do not use
appliance for any job except that for
which it is intended.
8) Warning - To reduce the risk of electric
shock, use only with an extension cord
intended for outdoor use, such as SW-A,
SOW-A, STW-A, STOW-A, SJW-A, SJOW-
A, SJTW-A or SJTOW-A.
Exception No. I : This warning does not apply to a battery-operated hedge
trimmer.
Exception No. 2:Types SOW, STW, SJOW,
SJTW, STOW, or SJTOW are alternative
designations to Types SOW-A STW-A,
SJOW-A, SJTW-A, STOW-A or SJTOW-A,
respectfully.
9) Extension Cord - Make sure your
extension cord is in good condition.When
using an extension cord, be sure to use
one heavy enough to carry the current
your product will draw. An undersized
extension cord will cause a drop in line
voltage resulting in loss of power and
overheating.Table 50.1 shows the correct
size to use depending on cord length and
nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use
the next heavier gage. The smaller the
gage number, the heavier the cord. To
reduce the risk of disconnection of hedge
trimmer cord from the extension cord
during operating:
i) Make a knot as shown in Figure 50.2,
or
i¡) Use one of the plug-receptacle
retaining straps or connectors described
in this manual.
