WARNING: Inspect
the area to be trimmed for
hazards before each use.
Remove any foreign objects such as
sticks, rocks, broken glass, nails, wire,
tools, toys, etc. which can be thrown by
or become entangled in the trimmer
line. Always locate, and then avoid
cutting near electrical power lines,
power conduit, or extension power
cords. Avoid contacting hard objects
with the trimmer head as the objects
can damage the trimmer head and / or
the objects can be thrown causing
serious injury.
Use this trimmer only for trimming,
scalping, mowing of grass and weeds,
and for light edging of lawns, and for
sweeping of only light lawn debris on
paved areas. Do not use this trimmer
for brush cutting, pruning or hedge
trimming. Never use this trimmer on
gravely or sandy areas.
WARNING: To
reduce the potential of
serious injury, cut only from
your left toward your right, in the
direction of the arrow on the deflector
shield. Cutting on the right side of the
deflector shield and moving directionally
towards your right will cause the debris
and objects to be thrown predominately
away from the operator thereby
reducing the risk of personal injury to
the operator, although the risk of injury
due to ricochet is not lessened.
Whereas cutting on the left-side of the
deflector shield or moving directionally
towards your left will cause for
comparatively more debris to be thrown
towards the operator thereby increasing
the risk of personal injury.
Hold the trimmer firmly with both hands
to ensure proper control. Never operate
the trimmer with one hand.
Keep the trimmer head below waist
level and away from all parts of your
body. Do not draw the trimmer head
towards your feet or legs.
WARNING: Always remove the
Power Cell when making
adjustments, changing accessories,
replacing the polymer trimmer line,
removing or untangling debris,
leaving the tool idle or unattended,
cleaning, servicing, storing or
transporting the tool. Such preventive
measures reduce the risk of starting the
tool accidentally and causing serious
injury.
Never use the trimmer with the deflector
shield removed, damaged or incorrectly
positioned. Serious injury may result.
Maintain firm footing and balance at all
times. Do not overreach or use the
trimmer from unstable surfaces such as
ladders, trees, steep slopes, slippery
surfaces, rooftops, etc.
Inspect the trimmer head before each
use. If any parts are worn or damaged,
replace them before using the trimmer.
Only use the polymer line size and type
recommended for the trimmer. Use of
any other type could result in serious
injury.
Use only in daylight or in good quality
artificial light.
Never use the trimmer for anything
other than its intended purpose. Use for
anything other than trimming grass and
weeds can be dangerous. It may also
damage the trimmer.
