performing an operation where the cutting tool
may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Con-
tact with a “live” wire will make exposed metal
parts of the tool “live” and shock the operator.

Be sure no one is below when using the tool in
high locations.
3. Hold the tool firmly with both hands. Always use
the side grip.
4. Keep hands away from moving parts.
5. Do not leave the tool running. Operate the tool
only when hand-held.

ately after operation; they may be extremely hot
