WARNING!

When using the power tool, basic safety 

precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of 

fire, electric shock, and personal injury. These include:

1.  Keep work area clean and well-lit – Cluttered, dark 

areas invite accidents.

2.  Avoid dangerous environments – Do not use the power 

tool in rain, in damp or wet locations, or in bad weather, 

especially when there is a risk of lighting. This decreases 

the risk of being struck by lighting. Do not operate the 

power tool in gaseous or explosive atmospheres or use 

the power tool near flammable or combustible liquids. 

Motors in these tools normally spark, and the sparks 

might ignite fumes.

3.  Know your product – Know how to start and stop the 

machine. Be thoroughly familiar with the controls.

4.  Keep children, bystanders, and pets away –  

All spectators, including pets, should be kept a safe 

distance away from the work area.

5.  Dress properly – Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. 

They can get caught in moving parts. Protective rubber 

gloves and non-slip footwear are recommended when 

working outdoors.

6.

CAUTION! – Exercise caution to avoid slipping or 

falling. Wear protective footwear that will protect your feet 

and improve your footing on slippery surfaces.

7.  Stay alert – Watch what you are doing. Use common 

sense. Do not operate the power tool when you are tired, 

or under the influence of alcohol or drugs.

8.  Do not overreach –

Keep proper footing and balance at  

all times.

9.  Prevent unintentional starting – Ensure the switch is in 

the off-position before connecting to battery pack, picking 

up or carrying the appliance. Carrying the appliance with 

your finger on the switch or energizing appliance that have 

the switch on invites accidents.

  NOTE: This warning is not applicable for batteries that 

cannot be disconnected from the appliance in normal use.

10. Use the right appliance – Do not use the power tool 

for any applications other than those for which it was 

intended.

11. Blades are sharp – Don't grasp the exposed cutting 

blades or cutting edges when picking up or holding the 

power tool.

12. Use two hands – Hold the telescoping pole and handle 

with both hands to avoid loss of control.

13. Remove the battery – Remove the battery from the 

power tool when it is not in use, before servicing it, when 

changing accessories, and when performing any other 

maintenance task.

14. Use safety glasses – Also use safety footwear, snug-

fitting clothing, protective gloves, hearing and head 

protection.

15. Use head protection – Always use head protection when 

operating the power tool overhead. Falling debris can 

result in serious personal injury.

16. Do not force the tool – It will perform better with less 

likelihood of personal or mechanical injury if it is used at 

the rate for which it was designed.

17. Store indoors – When not in use, the power tool should 

be stored indoors in a dry and high or locked-up place out 

of the reach of children.

18. Check for damaged parts – Before further use of the 

appliance, all guards and parts should be carefully 

checked to determine that it will operate properly and 

perform its intended function. Check for alignment of 

moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, 

mounting, and any other condition that may affect its 

operation. A guard or other part that is damaged should
