•
Keep all parts of the body away from the cutting blade. Do not remove cut material or hold
material to be cut when blades are moving. Make sure the switch is off and the battery has
been removed when clearing jammed material.
Blades coast for a short time after the tool
has been turned 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 cutting blade stopped.
