with this product in this operator's manual.
Avoid dangerous environments - Do not use the
product in damp or wet locations.
Do not use in the rain.
If the product vibrates abnormally, immediately stop
the motor and check for the cause. Vibration is
generally a warning of trouble.
Before cleaning, repairing, or inspecting, shut off
the motor and make certain all moving parts have

Service on the product must be performed
by qualified repair personnel only. Service or
maintenance performed by unqualified personnel
could result in injury to the user or damage to the
product.
Use only identical replacement parts when servicing
the product. Use of unauthorized parts may create
a risk of serious injury to the user, or damage to the
product.
Follow advice on the use and type of extension cords
to be used (not lighter than ordinary tough rubber
sheathed and ordinary polyvinyl chloride sheathed
supply cord).
Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as
pipes, radiators, ranges, and refrigerators. There
is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is
grounded.
Do NOT expose product to rain or wet conditions.
Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of
electric shock.
Do not handle plug or tool with wet hands.
When operating a power tool outdoors, use an
outdoor extension cord.
Store idle edger indoors - When not in use, store it
in dry, and high or locked up place out of reach of
children.
Turn off all controls before unplugging.
Do not use the tool if its switch does not turn it on or
off. Any tool that cannot be controlled with the switch
is dangerous and must be repaired.
Do not use with damaged plug. If the tool is not
working as it should or has been dropped, damaged,
left outdoors, or dropped into water, return it to an
authorized service center.
Do not leave the tool when plugged in. Unplug from
the power outlet when not in use, before servicing,
changing accessories, and before storing the tool.
Such preventative safety measures reduce the risk of
starting the tool accidentally.
Do not abuse cord and do not pull or carry by cord,
use cord as a handle, close a door on a cord, or
pull cord around sharp edges or corners or yank to
disconnect. Do not run appliance over the cord. Keep
cord away from heated surfaces.
Do not unplug by pulling on the cord. To unplug,
grasp the plug, not the cord.
In a double insulated appliance, two systems of
insulation are provided instead of grounding.
No means for grounding should be added to the
appliance. Servicing a double insulated appliance
requires extreme care and knowledge of the system
and should be done only by a qualified service
personnel. Replacement parts for a double insulated
appliance must be identical to the parts they replace.
This appliance is intended for household use only.
Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) - Protection
should be provided on the circuit or outlet to be
used for the edger. Receptacles built in with GFCI
protection may be used for this measure of safety.
Avoid unintentional starting - Do not carry plugged in
edger with finger on switch. Make sure the switch is
off when plugging in.
Do not grasp the exposed cutting blades or cutting
edges when picking up or holding the edger.
Do not force the edger - It will do the job better and
with a lower risk of injury at rate for which it was
designed.
Maintain the edger with care - Keep sharp cutting
edge clean for best performance and to reduce
the risk of injury. Follow instruction for lubricating
and changing accessories. Inspect edger cord
periodically. If damaged, have it repaired by an
authorized service facility. Inspect extension cords
periodically and replace if damaged. Keeps handles
dry, clean, and free from oil and grease.
Check damaged parts - Before further use of the
edger, a guard or other part that is damaged should
be carefully checked to determine that it will operate
properly and perform its intended function. Check
alignment of moving parts, binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts, mounting, and any other condition
that might effect its operation. A guard or other
part that is damaged should be properly repaired
or replaced by an authorized service center unless
indicated elsewhere in this manual.
Do not use the edger for any job except that for which
it is intended.
