Hedge trimmer safety warnings
• Keep all parts of the body away from the
cutter blade. Do not remove cut material
or hold material to be cut when blades
are moving. Blades continue to move
after the switch is turned off. A moment
of inattention while operating the hedge
trimmer may result in serious personal
injury.
• Carry the hedge trimmer by the handle
with the cutter blade stopped, taking care
not to operate any power switch. Carrying
the hedge trimmer properly will decrease
the risk of inadvertent starting and possible
injury.
• When transporting or storing the hedge
trimmer, always fit the blade cover. Proper
handling of the hedge trimmer will decrease
the risk of personal injury from the blades.
• When clearing jammed material or
servicing the unit, make sure all power
switches are off and the power cable is
disconnected. Unexpected actuation of
the hedge trimmer while clearing jammed
material, or servicing, may result in serious
personal injury.
