•••••
NEVER use unit within 15 meters (50 feet) of any
power lines or wires that may be conducting electric-
ity. Contact with wires carrying electrical current can
result in shock or electrocution.
•••••
NEVER exceed the cutting capacity of the hedge
clippers - forcing the blades to cut materials thicker
than the hedge clipper is designed to handle will
result in jams, blade damage, and poor overall
performance.
•••••
ALWAYS use a suitable tool such as a power
pruner or chain saw to cut branches larger than the
hedge clipper will allow.
•••••
NEVER attempt to cut more than 6 inches from a
hedge or shrub in one cutting pass. Use multiple
passes for cleaner, safer cuts, and better control.
•••••
ALWAYS stop engine and disconnect spark plug
lead before removing a blade obstruction.
•••••
NEVER use dull, loose, or damaged blades. Keep
blades properly adjusted and lubricated at all times.
•••••
NEVER adjust blades when engine is running. Shut
engine off, and disconnect spark plug lead from
spark plug.
•••••
ALWAYS use correct tools to perform blade adjust-
ments. Use long wrenches to keep hands away
from sharp blade edges.
•••••
ALWAYS place blade cover on blades when trans-
porting or storing unit.
