that for which they are intended.
6. Avoid unintentional starting – Do not carry the tool with
finger on the trigger. Make sure the switch is off before
inserting the battery.
7. Do not force the tool – It will do the job better and with
less likelihood of injury if it is used at the rate for which it
was designed.
8. Do not overreach – Keep proper footing and balance at
all times.
9. Stay alert – Watch what you are doing. Use common
sense. Do not operate the trimmer + edger when you are
tired, or under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
10. Disconnect the tool – Turn the trimmer + edger off and
remove the battery when: the unit is not in use; it is left
unattended; it is being examined because it is not working
correctly; the cutting line is being removed or changed;
or when the trimmer is being moved from one place to
another.
11. Store idle tools indoors – When not in use, tools should
be stored indoors in a dry and high or locked-up place out
of the reach of children.
12. Maintain tools with care – Keep cutting edges sharp
and clean for best performance and to reduce the risk
of injury. Follow instructions for lubricating and changing
accessories. Inspect the trimmer + edger periodically and
replace if damaged. Repair the trimmer + edger only at an
authorized service facility. Keep handles dry, clean, and
free from oil and grease.
13. Checked for damaged parts – Before continuing to
use the trimmer + edger, a guard or other part that is
damaged should be carefully checked to determine that
it will operate properly and perform its intended function.
Check for the alignment of moving parts, binding of
moving parts, breakage of parts, mounting, and any other
condition that may affect the tool's operation. A guard or
other part that is damaged should be properly repaired or
replaced by an authorized service center unless indicated
elsewhere in this manual.
m
CAUTION!
The safety guard is critical to the safety of
the operator and the safety of people standing within a safe
distance of the trimmer + edger. The safety guard keeps the
unit in good working order and must always be in place during
operation. Failure to have the guard in place during operation
is dangerous and will void the warranty.
