before using this product. Be familiar with all controls and proper use of the machine. Follow all safety instructions. Failure to follow all safety instructions listed below, can result in serious personal injury.
Do not allow children or untrained individuals to use this
unit.
Thoroughly inspect the area where the equipment is to
be used and remove all foreign objects.
Wear safety glasses or goggles that are marked to comply
with ANSI Z87.1 standard when operating this product.
Dress properly. Wear heavy long pants, boots, and gloves.
Do not wear loose fitting clothing, short pants, or go barefoot. Do not wear jewelry of any kind.
Secure long hair above shoulder level to prevent entan-
glement in moving parts.
Keep all bystanders, children, and pets at least 50 ft. away. Stay Alert — Watch what you are doing; use common
sense. Do not operate this unit when you are tired, ill, or under the influence of alcohol, drugs, or medication.
Do not operate in poor lighting. Keep firm footing and balance. Do not overreach. Over-
reaching can result in loss of balance or exposure to hot surfaces.
Keep all parts of your body away from any moving part. Inspect the unit before each use for loose fasteners, etc.
Replace any damaged parts before use.
When not in use, product should be stored indoors in a
dry, locked up place—out of the reach of children.
It has been reported that vibrations from hand-held tools
may contribute to a condition called Raynaud’s Syndrome in certain individuals. Symptoms may include tingling, numbness, and blanching of the fingers, usually apparent upon exposure to cold. Hereditary factors, exposure to cold and dampness, diet, smoking, and work practices are all thought to contribute to the development of these symptoms. It is presently unknown what, if any, vibrations or extent of exposure may contribute to the condition. There are measures that can be taken by the operator to possibly reduce the effects of vibration:
a) Keep your body warm in cold weather. When operating
the unit wear gloves to keep your hands and wrists warm. It is reported that cold weather is a major factor contributing to Raynaud’s Syndrome.
b) After each period of operation, exercise to
increase blood circulation.
Page 3
c) Take frequent work breaks. Limit the amount of
exposure per day.
d) Keep the product well maintained, fasteners
tightened and worn parts replaced.
If you experience any of the symptoms of this condition,
immediately discontinue use and see your physician about these symptoms.
Use only original manufacturer’s replacement parts. Failure
to do so may cause poor performance, possible injury, and will void your warranty.
 Do not, under any circumstance, use any attachment or
accessory on this product which was not provided with the product or identified as appropriate for use with this product in the operator’s manual.
Avoid dangerous environments. Do not use the product
in damp or wet locations. Do not use in rain.
Use the right appliance. Do not use the hedge trimmer
for any job except that for which it is intended.
Do not use on steps, a ladder, or unstable support. Stable
footing on a solid surface enables better control of the product in unexpected situations.
Do not force the hedge trimmer. It will do the job better
and with less likelihood of a risk of injury at the rate for which it was designed.
DANGER — Keep hands away from cutting area. Keep
both hands on handles when power is on.
Keep hands away from blades. Do not reach underneath
work or around or over the blade while blade is rotating. Do not attempt to remove cut material when blade is moving. Make sure trimmer is off when clearing jammed materials from blades. Do not grasp the exposed cutting blades or cutting edges when picking up or holding the hedge trimmer.
CAUTION — Blade coasts after being turned off. To reduce the risk of electric shock, this product has a
polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other) and will require the use of a polarized extension cord. The plug will fit into a polarized extension cord only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the extension cord, reverse the plug. If the plug still does not fit, obtain a correct polarized extension cord. A polarized extension cord will require the use of a polarized wall outlet. This plug will fit into the polarized wall outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the wall outlet, reverse the plug. If the plug still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper wall outlet. Do not change the equipment plug, extension cord receptacle, or extension cord plug in any way.
Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord to carry the
product or to disconnect the plug from an outlet. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges, or moving parts. Replace damaged cords immediately. Damaged cords increase the risk of electric shock.
Make sure your extension cord is in good condition.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. A wire gauge size (A.W.G.) of at least 16 is recommended for an extension cord 50 feet or less in length. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating.

WARNING: Use outdoor extension cords marked SW-A, SOW-A, STW-A, STOW-A, SJW-A, SJTW-A, or SJTOWA. These cords are rated for outdoor use and reduce the risk of electric shock.

FEATURES
ELECTRICAL
DOUBLE INSULATION
Double insulation is a concept in safety in electric power tools, which eliminates the need for the usual three­wire grounded power cord. All exposed metal parts are isolated from the internal metal motor components with protecting insulation. Double insulated tools do not need to be grounded.
WARNING:
The double insulated system is intended to protect the user from shock resulting from a break in the tool’s internal insulation. Observe all normal safety precautions to avoid electrical shock.
NOTE: Servicing of a product with double insulation requires extreme care and knowledge of the system and should be performed only by a qualified service technician. For service, we suggest you return the product to your nearest authorized service center for repair. Always use original factory replace­ment parts when servicing.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
This product has a precision-built electric motor. It should be connected to a power supply that is 120 volts, 60 Hz, AC only (normal household current). Do not operate this product on direct current (DC). A substantial voltage drop will cause a loss of power and the motor will overheat. If the product does not operate when plugged into an outlet, double-check the power supply.
It is possible to tie the extension cord and power cord in a knot to prevent them from becoming disconnected during use. Make the knot as shown in figure 1, then connect the plug end of the power cord into the receptacle end of the extension cord. This method can also be used to tie two extension cords together.

EXTENSION CORDS
See Figure 1.
When using a power tool at a considerable distance from a power source, be sure to use an extension cord that has the capacity to handle the current the product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage, resulting in overheating and loss of power. Use the chart to determine the minimum wire size required in an extension cord. Only round jacketed cords listed by Underwriter’s Laboratories (UL) should be used.
When working outdoors with a product, use an extension cord that is designed for outside use. This type of cord is designated with “WA” on the cord’s jacket.
Before using any extension cord, inspect it for loose or ex­posed wires and cut or worn insulation.
A proper extension cord is available at an authorized service center.
WARNING:
Keep the extension cord clear of the working area. Position the cord so that it will not get caught on lumber, tools, or other obstructions while you are working with a power tool. Failure to do so can result in serious personal injury.
WARNING:
Check extension cords before each use. If damaged replace immediately. Never use the product with a damaged cord since touching the damaged area could cause electrical shock resulting in serious injury.

WARNING:
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 serious personal injury.
Do not force the hedge trimmer through heavy shrubbery.
This can cause the blades to bind and slow down. If the blades slow down, reduce the pace.
Do not attempt to cut stems or twigs that are larger than
3/8 in. thick, or those obviously too large to feed into the cutting blade. Use a non-powered hand saw or pruning saw to trim large stems.
 If blades do become jammed, stop the motor, allow the
blades to stop, and disconnect the plug from the power source before attempting to remove the obstruction.
 If desired, you can use a string to help cut your hedge
level. Decide how high you want the hedge. Stretch a piece of string along the hedge at the desired height. Trim the hedge just above the guide line of string. Trim the side of a hedge so that it will be slightly narrower at the top. More of the hedge will be exposed when shaped this way, and it will be more uniform.

Page 10
OPERATION
 Wear gloves when trimming thorny or prickly growth.
When trimming new growth, use a wide sweeping action, so that the stems are fed directly into the cutting blade. Older growth will have thicker stems and will be trimmed easiest by using a sawing movement.
