Operation
mWARNING! Always wear safety goggles or safety
glasses with side shields when operating power tools.
Failure to do so could result in objects being thrown into your
eyes, resulting in possible serious injury.
mWARNING! Do not use any attachments or accessories
not recommended by the manufacturer of this product.
The use of attachments or accessories not recommended can
result in serious personal injury.
Holding the Trimmer
Before operating the hedge trimmer, stand in the operating
position and perform the following checks:
1. You are wearing all of the necessary personal protective
equipment, including protective gloves, non-slip footwear,
safety goggles, ear defenders, and close-tting clothing.
2. You are holding the unit rmly with both hands. Your right
arm is slightly bent and is holding the rear handle, and
your left arm is straight and is holding the front handle.
3. You are standing with proper footing and are holding the
hedge trimmer so that the cutting blades are always away
from your body.
mWARNING! Always keep both hands on the hedge
trimmer handles. Never hold shrubs with one hand and operate
the hedge trimmer with the other. Improper handling of the
hedge trimmer could result in serious injury.
Starting + Stopping
mWARNING! Ensure the blade does not touch any
objects before turning on the hedge trimmer.
mCAUTION! Starting, stopping, and restarting a DC
motor repeatedly within a few seconds can generate a great
deal of heat and damage the motor. To protect the life of your
cordless hedge trimmer, always wait at least ve seconds after
stopping before restarting the hedge trimmer.
1. Remove the blade cover and insert the battery in the
battery compartment (Fig. 4).
2. To start the tool, slide the safety lock switch upward,
then squeeze the On/O trigger. (Fig. 5).
3. To turn the tool OFF, release the On/O trigger (Fig. 5).
NOTE: Do not press the On/O trigger until you are ready
to make a cut.
Cutting Procedures
mWARNING! Never cut near electric cords or power
lines. If the blade jams on any electrical cable, DO NOT
TOUCH THE BLADE. IT CAN CONDUCT ELECTRICITY
AND FATALLY SHOCK YOU! Instead, continue to hold the
hedge trimmer by the insulated rear handle, and lay it down
and away from you in a safe manner. Make sure that electrical
service to the damaged electrical cable is disconnected before
attempting to free the hedge trimmer blade.
Contact with the blade, other conductive parts of the hedge
trimmer, or live electric cords or power lines will result in death
by electrocution or serious injury.
mWARNING! Do not allow familiarity with this type of
product to make you careless. Remember that a careless
fraction of a second is sucient to inict serious injury.
mWARNING! Clear the area to be cut before each use.
Remove all objects such as cords, lights, wire, or loose string
which can become entangled in the cutting blade and create a
risk of electric shock and serious personal injury.
In order to operate this cordless hedge trimmer you will
need a iON+ 24V System battery and charger. See page 15
