• Hold the hedge trimmer properly with
both hands.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
1. Ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI)
protection should be provided on the
circuit(s) or outlet(s) to be used for this
electric hedge trimmer. Receptacles are
available having built-in GFCI protection
and may be used for this measure of
safety.
2. To reduce the risk of electric shock, this
appliance has a polarized plug (i.e. one
blade is wider than the other). Use this
appliance only with a polarized UL-,
CSA-, or ETL-listed extension cord
recommended for outdoor,all-weather
use. The appliance plug will t into a
polarized extension cord only one way. If
the appliance plug does not t fully into
the extension cord, reverse the plug. If
the plug still does not t, obtain a correct
polarized extension cord. A polarized
extension cord will require the use of a
polarized wall outlet. The extension cord
plug will t into the polarized wall outlet
only one way. If the plug does not t fully
into the wall outlet, reverse the plug.
If the plug still does not t, contact a
qualied electrician to install the proper
wall outlet. Do not modify the appliance
plug, extension cord receptacle, or
extension cord plug in any way.
3. To prevent electric shock, use only with
an extension cord suitable for outdoor
use, such as SW-A, SOW-A, STW-A,
STOW-A, SJW-A, SJOW-A, SJTW-A,
or SJTOW-A. Before use, check that
the extension cord is in good condition.
When using an extension cord, make
sure to use one heavy enough to carry
the current product. An undersized cord
will cause a drop in line voltage resulting
in loss of power and overheating.
EXTENSION CORDS
Use a proper extension cord. ONLY use
cords listed by underwriters Laboratories
(UL). Other extension cords can cause a
drop in line voltage, resulting in a loss of
power
and overheating of tool.
For this tool an AWG (American Wire
Gauge) size of a least 14-gauge is
recommended for an extension cord of 25-
ft. or less in length. Use 12-gauge for an
extension cord of 50-ft. Extension cords
100-ft. or longer are not recommended.
Remember, a smaller wire gauge size
has greater capacity than a larger
number (14-gauge wire has more capacity
than 16-gauge wire; 12-gauge wire has
more capacity than 14-gauge). When in
doubt use the smaller number.

WARNING
Check extension cords before each
use. If damaged replace immediately.
