Additional Electrical Safety Rules
• The voltage must correspond to the one marked on the
technical data plate (120 V~60 Hz). Do not use other
sources of power.
• The power line should have a circuit breaker no lower than
10 A. Consult an electrician if this is not the case.
• Never pass the grass trimmer + edger over the extension
cord when the grass trimmer + edger is in use as this could
cut the cord. Make sure you know where the cord is at all
times.
• Use the special cord restraint hook to connect the
extension cord.
• Never use the tool when it is raining or when excessively
moist and humid conditions are present. Do not
cut damp grass or leave the tool outside overnight.
• The power supply cable should be checked regularly to
make sure it is perfectly intact without any signs of wear or
damage. If the cable is not in good condition, do not use
the unit.
• Only use an extension cable that is rated for outdoor use.
Keep the extension cord away from the cutting area, sharp
edges, heat, fuels, damp areas, and oily surfaces.
• Damage to unit – If the trimmer + edger strikes a foreign
object or becomes entangled with it, stop the tool
immediately. Unplug it, check for damage, and have any
damage repaired before proceeding with operation. Do
not operate the tool with a broken hub or spool. Contact

• Damage to cord – Keep power cord away from the rotating
line. If you damage the cord, unplug it from the power
supply before moving the tool or examining the damage.
A damaged cord must be replaced before further use.
• Do not operate portable electric tools in gaseous or
explosive atmospheres – Motors in these tools normally
spark, and the sparks might ignite fumes.
• Maintain appliances with care – Follow instructions for
lubricating and changing accessories. Inspect extension
cords periodically and replace if damaged. Keep handles
dry, clean, and free from oil and grease.
Double-Insulated Appliances
In a double-insulated appliance, two systems of insulation
are provided instead of grounding. No grounding means is
provided on a double-insulated appliance, nor should a means
for grounding be added to the appliance. Servicing a double-
insulated appliance requires extreme care and knowledge
of the system, and should be performed only by qualied
service personnel at an authorized Snow Joe

dealer. Replacement parts for a double-insulated appliance
must be identical to the parts they replace. A double-insulated
appliance is marked with the words “Double Insulation” or
“Double Insulated.” The symbol (square within a square)
may also be marked on the appliance.
DOUBLE-INSULATED: GROUNDING NOT
REQUIRED. WHEN SERVICING, USE ONLY
IDENTICAL REPLACEMENT PARTS.
This electric grass trimmer + edger is double-insulated,
eliminating the need for a separate grounding system. Use
only identical replacement parts. Read the instructions before
servicing double-insulated appliances. Use this grass trimmer
+ edger only as described in this manual.
