WARNING
Operating a poorly maintained unit can result in serious injuries to
operator and others. Maintain unit as instructed in Operator’s Man-
ual. Keep blades sharp and properly adjusted, and replace broken
parts immediately.
Moving parts can amputate fingers or cause severe injuries. Keep
hands, clothing and loose objects away from all openings. Always
stop engine, disconnect spark plug, and make sure all moving parts
have come to a complete stop before removing obstructions, clear-
ing debris, or servicing unit.
Your unit requires regular maintenance for safe operation and reli-
able performance. Using a poorly-maintained unit can result in an
injury caused by a part failure or other malfunction. Follow these
important safety instructions to reduce the risk of injury caused by
poor maintenance.
• NEVER
test for ignition spark by grounding spark plug near cylinder plug
hole. A spark could ignite fuel vapor, causing serious injury from explosion
or fire.
• NEVER
use a unit with broken, damaged, missing, or worn parts. Contact
your dealer for repairs if problems are found.
• NEVER
use substitute parts, parts from other models or brands, or used
parts, when performing maintenance or repairs. Use only new parts that are
manufactured for your specific serial number and model trimmer.
• NEVER
make temporary repairs on a unit - taking shortcuts or using
questionable parts and performing repairs that are not approved may create
a safety hazard that can cause serious injury. Improper repair may also
cause premature part failures, and void your product warranty.
• ALWAYS
keep blades sharp. Cutting with dull blades increases the
chances of jams and binding, reduces cutting efficiency, and increases
operator fatigue.
• ALWAYS
keep hedge clipper blades properly adjusted. Improperly adjusted
blades may result in poor cutting performance, increased risk of jams, and
premature blade wear or failure.
• ALWAYS
keep blades and gear case properly lubricated. Poor lubrication
can cause result in part failures and cause overheating.
• ALWAYS
keep fasteners tightened securely, and use the correct tools for
the job. Operation with loose fasteners can result in hazardous operation.
• ALWAYS
do a safety check after performing any service or maintenance on
the unit. Make sure all parts have been properly installed, all hardware is
properly tightened, and all guards and shields are in place.
• NEVER
reach into any opening while the engine is running. Moving parts
may not be visible through openings.
• ALWAYS
stop unit immediately and correct any problem if unit does not run
properly after performing service or maintenance. Operating a unit that has
been improperly repaired may result in serious injury.
• ALWAYS
have major service performed by a qualified service technician.
