Before starting the operation or when hitting the hedge trimmer against
something hard such as stones, make sure that the knob bolt of powerhead
connections is not loosened.
* Otherwise, it could cause the attachment to fall off.
Make sure that the positioning knob is lowered to the locked position when
installing the hedge trimmer. (Refer to page 17.)
* The attachment could come off.
Before use, always inspect the powerhead and attachment for any loose,
damaged or missing parts.
* Anything loose, damaged, or missing could cause parts of the powerhead attachment to
fall off or fail and seriously injure or kill the user.
Before using hedge trimmer, inspect the work area for any obstacles that
cannot be removed so you can avoid contacting them when operating the
hedge trimmer.

resulting in serious injury or death.
