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.

Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) protection should

be provided on the circuit(s) or outlet(s) to be used for the

grass shear/shrubber. Receptacles are available having

built-in GFCI protection and may be used for this measure

Always stop the motor and lock switch when not in use,

before attempting to clean any obstruction caught or

jammed in the blade, or before removing and installing

the blade.

 Do not use power tools in explosive atmospheres such as

in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power

tools create sparks which may ignite dust or fumes.

Avoid accidental starting - never carry grass shear/shrubber

with finger on switch. Stop the motor when cutting is

delayed or when walking from one cutting location to

another. If the tool is left unattended, install the padlock

(not included) in the trigger to avoid unauthorized use.

Maintain grass shear/shrubber with care - Keep cutting

edge sharp and clean for best performance and to reduce

the risk of injury. Follow instructions for lubricating and
