IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

• Maintain Edger with Care – Keep sharp cutting edge clean for best performance and to reduce
the risk of injury. Follow instruction for lubricating and changing accessories. Inspect edger cord
periodically, and if damaged, have it repaired by an authorized service facility. Inspect extension
cords periodically and replace if damaged. Keeps handles dry, clean, and free from oil and
grease.
• Check Damaged Parts – Before further use of the 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 alignment of moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, mount-
ing, and any other condition that might effect its 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.
• Use Right Appliance – Do not use edger for any job except that for which it is intended.
• Extension Cord – Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. W
extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your prod-uct will draw. A
wire gauge size (A.W.G.) of at least 14 is recommended for an extension cord 50 feet or less in
length. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the
cord. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and
overheating.
• User being against exceeding the maximum capacity, using the tool as it was not intended.
