Additional Safety Rules for Hedge
Trimmer
1. Remove any blade that has been damaged. Always make
sure that the blade is installed correctly and securely
fastened before each use. Failure to do so can cause
serious injury.
2. Hold the hedge trimmer by insulated gripping surfaces
only, because the cutter blade may contact hidden
wiring. Cutter blades contacting a "live" wire may electrify
exposed metal parts of the power tool and could give the
operator an electric shock.
3.
Maintain a firm grip on both handles while cutting with the
blade. Keep the blade away from body.
4. Hold hedge trimmer properly, e.g., with both hands if two
handles are provided. Loss of control can cause personal
injury.
5. Check the hedge for foreign objects before operation,
e.g., center fences. Take care that the cutting device does
not come in contact with wire or other metal objects.

may result in serious personal injury.
8. Carry the hedge trimmer by the handle with the cutting
blade stopped. When transporting or storing the hedge
trimmer always keep the blade covered. Proper handling
of the hedge trimmer will reduce possible personal injury
from the cutter blades.

on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with
the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.

parts of the unit. Safe, sturdy, nonskid footwear should
always be worn. Long hair should be tied back.
14. Do not using the machine in bad weather conditions
especially when there is a risk of lightning.
