  • Do not operate in poor lighting.
  •  Keep all parts of your body away from any moving part.
  • Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Power tools create sparks that may ignite the dust or fumes.
  • Avoid Dangerous Environments – Don’t expose appliances to rain or wet conditions. Water entering an appliance will increase the risk of electric shock.
  • Use Right Appliance – Do not use this product for any job except that for which it is intended.
  • 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 overreach – Keep firm footing and balance. Overreaching can result in loss of balance.
  • Avoid accidental starting – Be sure the switch trigger is in the locked or off position before inserting the battery pack. 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 the tool if the 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 powerhead – Disconnect battery pack from the appliance before storing, servicing, or changing ac- accessories such as cutting line. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.
  • Use only identical manufacturer’s replacement parts and accessories. Use of any other parts may create a hazard or cause product damage.
  • Maintain appliance with care – Replace string head if cracked, chipped, or damaged in any way. Be sure the string head is properly installed and securely fastened. Failure to do so can cause serious injury. Follow instructions for lubrication and changing accessories. Inspect the charger cord periodically and, if damaged, have it replaced. Keep powerhead handles dry, clean, and free from grease and oil.
  • Check Damaged Parts – Before further use of the appliance, a guard or other part that is damaged should be carefully checked to determine that it will operate properly and perform its function. Check for alignment of moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, mounting, and any other condition that may affect its operation. A guard or other part that is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced by an authorized service center un- less indicated elsewhere in this manual.
