provide a double thickness of insulation
between you and the tool’s electrical
system. All exposed metal parts are
isolated from the internal metal motor
components with protective insulation.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
IN THE EVENT OF A MALFUNCTION OR BREAKDOWN, grounding provides
the path of least resistance for electric current, and reduces the risk of electric
shock.

1. Use only identical replacement parts when servicing a tool with double
insulation. Servicing should be performed by a qualified technician.
2. Do not use in wet or damp areas or expose to rain.

NORMAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS WHEN OPERATING THIS TOOL.
TO AVOID INJURY, WHEN SERVICING THE HEDGE
TRIMMER, USE ONLY IDENTICAL REPLACEMENT PARTS.
