grounded. 

 

„

Avoid  Dangerous  Environments  -  Don’t  expose 

appliance  or  line  trimmer  to  rain  or  wet  conditions. 

Water  entering  an  appliance  or  line  trimmer  will 

increase the risk of electric shock. 

 

„

Use  Right  Appliance  -  Do  not  force  tool.  Use  the 

correct tool for your application. The correct tool will 

do the job better and safer at the rate for which it is 

designed. 

 

„

Don’t Force Appliance – It will do the job better and 

with  less  likelihood  of  a  risk  of  injury  at  the  rate  for 

which it was designed. 

 

„

Do not operate the equipment while barefoot or when 

wearing sandals or similar lightweight footwear. Wear 

protective  footwear  that  will  protect  your  feet  and 

improve your footing on slippery surfaces. 

 

„

Do  not  over-reach.  Keep  firm  footing  and  balance. 

Over-reaching can result in loss of balance. 

 

„

Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch trigger is in

Carrying tools with your finger on the switch trigger or 

inserting the battery pack into a tool with the switch on 

invites accidents. 

 

„

Do not use tool if switch trigger does not turn it on or 

off. Any tool that cannot be controlled with the switch 

trigger is dangerous and must be repaired. 

 

„

Disconnect  battery  pack  from  the  appliance  before 

storing,  servicing,  or  changing  accessories  such 

as  cutting  line.  Such  preventative  safety  measures 

reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.

and accessories. Use of any other parts may create a 

hazard or cause product damage. 

 

„

Maintain appliance with care - Replace trimmer head 

if cracked, chipped or damaged in any way.  Be sure 

the  trimmer  head  is  properly  installed  and  securely 

fastened.  Failure  to  do  so  can  cause  serious  injury. 

Keep handles dry, clean and free from oil and grease. 

 

„

Check  for  damaged  parts.  Before  further  use  of  the 

tool,  any  part  that  is  damaged  should  be  carefully 

checked to determine that it will operate properly and 

perform  its  intended  function.  Check  for  alignment 

of  moving  parts,  binding  of  moving  parts,  breakage 

of  parts,  mounting,  and  any  other  conditions  that 

may affect its operation. A guard or other part that is 

damaged should be properly repaired or replaced by 

an authorized service dealer

.

 

„

Make sure all guards, straps, deflectors and handles 

are properly and securely attached.
