GENERAL SAFETY RULES
WARNING! Read and understand all instructions.
Failure to follow all instructions listed below may
result in electric shock, fire, and/or serious personal
injury.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS
Know your hedge trimmer. Read and understand the
operator’s manual and observe the warnings and
instruction labels affixed to the hedge trimmer.
Stay alert — watch what you are doing and use
common sense when operating a power hedge
trimmer. Do not use hedge trimmer while tired or
under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication.
A moment of inattention while operating power hedge
trimmers may result in serious personal injury.
Do not allow children or untrained individuals to use
this unit.
Use Safety Glasses — always wear eye protection with
side shields marked to comply with ANSI Z87.1.
Protect your lungs. Wear a face or dust mask if the
operation is dusty. Following this rule will reduce the
risk of serious personal injury.
Dress Properly — Do not wear loose clothing or
jewelry. Contain long hair. Loose clothes, jewelry, or
long hair can be caught in moving parts.
Wear heavy long pants, long sleeves, boots, and
gloves. Do not wear loose fitting clothing, short pants,
sandals, or jewelry of any kind. Do not go barefoot.
Secure long hair so it is above shoulder level to prevent
entanglement in any moving parts.
Keep Children Away — keep all bystanders, children,
and pets at least 50 feet away.
Use Right Appliance – do not use appliance for any job
except that for which it is intended.
Don’t Force Hedge Trimmer. It will do job better and
less likelihood of risk of injury at the rate for which it
was designed.
Disconnect Hedge Trimmer – disconnect hedge
trimmer from battery pack when not in use, before
servicing when changing accessories, such as blade
and the like.
Do Not Overreach — Keep proper footing and balance
at all times. Proper footing and balance enables better
control of the hedge trimmer in unexpected situations.
Do not use on a ladder or unstable support.
Do not operate in poor lighting.
Keep hands, face, and feet at a safe distance from
moving parts. Do not touch or try to stop the cutting
blades when they are moving.
Do not use hedge trimmer if switch does not turn it on
or off. A hedge trimmer that cannot be controlled with
the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
Avoid Accidental Starting — Be sure switch is in the
locked or off position before inserting battery pack.
Carrying hedge trimmers with your finger on the switch
or inserting the battery pack into a hedge trimmer with
the switch on invites accidents.
Avoid Dangerous Environments — Do not use the
hedge trimmer in damp or wet locations. Do not
operate the hedge trimmer in rain.
Maintain Hedge Trimmer with Care — Follow
instructions for lubrication and changing accessories,
keep handles dry, clean and free from oil and grease.
Keep cutting hedge trimmers sharp and clean. Properly
maintained hedge trimmers with sharp cutting edges
are less likely to bind and are easier to control and
reduce risk of injury.
Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts, and any other condition that may
affect the hedge trimmer’s operation. If damaged, have
the hedge trimmer serviced before using. A guard or
any other part that is damaged should be carefully
checked to determine that it will operate properly and
perform its intended function. Many accidents are
caused by poorly maintained hedge trimmers.
Keep the hedge trimmer and its handle dry, clean and
free from oil and grease. Always use a clean cloth when
cleaning. Never use brake fluids, gasoline, petroleumbased products, or any strong solvents to clean your
hedge trimmer. Following this rule will reduce the risk
of loss of control and deterioration of the enclosure
plastic.
To avoid the risk of electric shock, do not operate unit
in damp or wet locations.
Use only accessories that are recommended by the
manufacturer for your model. Accessories that may
be suitable for one hedge trimmer may create a risk of
injury when used on another hedge trimmer.
Hedge trimmer service must be performed only by
qualified repair personnel. Service or maintenance
performed by unqualified personnel may result in a risk
of injury.
When servicing a hedge trimmer, use only
identical replacement parts. Follow instructions
in the Maintenance section of this manual. Use of
unauthorized parts or failure to follow Maintenance
instructions may create a risk of shock or injury.

SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES
Before starting the hedge trimmer, make sure the blade
is not in contact with any object.
Stop the unit, remove the battery pack, and make sure
the blade has stopped before setting the unit down.
Never cut any material with a diameter larger than
3/8 in.
DANGER! Risk of cut. Keep hands away from blades.
Do not attempt to remove cut material or hold material
to be cut when blades are moving. Keep both hands
on handles when power is on. Make sure battery pack
is removed and the trigger is released when clearing
jammed material from blades. Do not grasp the
exposed cutting blades or cutting edges when picking
up or holding the unit.
Blades coast after unit is turned off.
Always stop the motor when cutting is delayed or when
walking from one cutting location to another.
Keep unit clean of grass clippings and other materials.
They may become lodged in the cutting blades.
Store Idle Hedge Trimmer Indoors — When not in use,
product should be stored indoors in a dry, locked up
place—out of the reach of children.
Replace scabbard cover when unit is not in use.
Never douse or squirt the unit with water or any other
liquid. Keep handles dry, clean, and free from debris.
Clean after each use; see storage instructions.
Secure the unit while transporting.
BATTERY SAFETY
Battery operated units do not have to be plugged
into an electrical outlet; therefore, they are always in
operating condition. Be aware of possible hazards
even when unit is not operating.
Remove the battery pack before making any
adjustments, cleaning, storing, or removing material
from the unit, or when not in use.
A battery pack must be recharged only with the
specified charger for the battery pack. A charger that
may be suitable for one type of battery pack may
create a risk of fire when used with another battery
pack. Use battery pack only with charger listed.
To reduce the risk of explosion and possible injury, DO
NOT place battery units or their batteries near fire or
heat.
Do not mutilate the battery pack. Released electrolyte
is corrosive and may cause damage to the eyes or
skin. It may be toxic if swallowed.
Batteries can explode in the presence of a source
of ignition, such as a pilot light. To reduce the risk of
serious personal injury, never use any cordless product
in the presence of open flame. An exploded battery
pack can propel debris and chemical. If exposed, flush
with water immediately.
Use only with charger listed.
MODEL
315.CR2600
Do not charge unit in a damp or wet location. Following
this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock.
For best results, your battery unit should be charged
in a location where the temperature is more than 50°F
(10°C) but less than 100°F (38°C). Do not store outside
or in vehicles.
Under extreme usage or temperature conditions,
battery pack leakage may occur. If liquid comes in
contact with your skin, wash immediately with soap
and water, then neutralize with lemon juice or vinegar.
If liquid gets into your eyes, flush them with clean water
for at least 10 minutes, then seek immediate medical
attention.
Do not crush, drop or damage battery pack. Do not
use a battery pack or charger that has been dropped or
received a sharp blow. A damaged battery is subject to
explosion. Properly dispose of a dropped or damaged
battery immediately.
Do not dispose of batteries in a fire. The cell may
explode. Batteries should be recycled. Consult your
local waste authority for information regarding available
recycling and/or disposal options.
When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from
other metal objects like: paper clips, coins, keys, nails,
screws, or other small metal objects that can make a
connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the
battery pack terminals together may cause sparks,
burns, or a fire.
Save these instructions. Refer to them frequently and
use them to instruct others who may use this hedge
trimmer. If you loan someone this hedge trimmer, loan
them these instructions also.
