IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
Read all safety warnings and all instructions.
Failure to follow the warnings and instructions
may result in electric shock, re, and/or serious injuries.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
The term “power tool” in all of the warnings listed below refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
1. WORK AREA SAFETY
A. Keep work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
B. Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of
ammable liquids, gases or dust.
Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or
fumes.
C. Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool.
Distractions can
cause you to lose control.
2. ELECTRICAL SAFETY
A. A battery-operated tool with integral batteries or a separate battery pack must be recharged only with the specied charger for the battery.
A charger that may be suitable
for one type of battery may create a risk of re when used with another battery.
B. Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators,
ranges and refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed
or grounded.
C. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.
Water entering a power tool will
increase the risk of electric shock.
D. Use a battery-operated tool only with specied battery pack.
Use of any other batteries
may create a risk of re.
E. If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current
device (RCD) protected supply.
Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.
3. PERSONAL SAFETY
A. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power
tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the inuence of drugs, alcohol
or medication.
A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious
personal injury.
B. Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection.
Protective equipment
such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate
conditions will reduce personal injuries.
C. Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool.
Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or energising power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
D. Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on.
A wrench or a
key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
E. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
This enables better

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
F. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts.
Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be caught in moving
parts.
G. If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used.
Use of these devices can reduce dust-
related hazards.
4. POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
A. Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application.
The
correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
B. Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off.
Any power tool that
cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
C. Disconnect the battery pack from the power tool before making any adjustments,
changing accessories, or storing power tools.
Such preventive safety measures reduce the
risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
D. Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool.
Power
tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
E. Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage
of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tools operation. If damaged,
have the power tool repaired before use.
Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained
power tools.
F. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting
edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
G. Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc., in accordance with these instructions, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed.
Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
5. BATTERY TOOL USE AND CARE
A. Ensure the switch is in the off position before inserting battery pack.
Inserting the
battery pack into power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
B. Recharge only with the charger specified by the manufacturer.
A charger that is
suitable for one type of battery pack may create a risk of re when used with another battery
pack.
C. Use power tools only with specifically designated battery packs.
Use of any other
battery packs may create a risk of injury and re.
D. 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 terminals together may cause
burns or a re.
E. Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid contact.
If
contact accidentally occurs, ush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.
F. Use only 60 V Greenworks batteries: LB60A00 / LB60A01.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
6. SERVICE
A. Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical
replacement parts.
This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
HEDGE TRIMMER SAFETY WARNINGS
Use both hands when operating the hedge trimmer. Using one hand could cause loss of control and result in serious personal injury.
Keep all parts of the body away from the cutter blade. Do not remove cut material or
hold material to be cut when blades are moving. Make sure the switch is off when
clearing jammed material. Blades coast after turn off.
A moment of inattention while
operating the hedge trimmer may result in serious personal injury.
Carry the hedge trimmer by the handle with the cutter blade stopped.
Proper handling
of the hedge trimmer will reduce possible personal injury from the cutter blades.
Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces only, because the cutter blade may contact hidden wiring.
Cutter blades contacting a “live” wire may make exposed metal parts
of the power tool “live” and could give the operator an electric shock.
DANGER – Keep hands away from blade.
Contact with blade will result in serious personal
injury.
Keep cable away from cutting area.
During operation the cable may be hidden in shrubs
and can be accidentally cut by the blade.
WARNING
Only use with handle and guard properly assembled to hedge trimmer. The use of the hedge
trimmer without the proper guard or handle provided may result in serious personal injury.
