Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts.
  • Tool Use and Care: Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. It will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed. Disconnect the battery pack from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools.
  • Battery Tool Use and Care: Recharge only with the charger specified by the manufacturer. Use power tools only with specifically designated battery packs.

Specific Trimmer Safety

  • Keep hands away from cutting blades. Do not attempt to remove cut material or hold material to be cut when blades are moving.
  • Ensure the safety switch is pressed before activating the power button to prevent accidental start-ups.
  • Inspect the area to be trimmed for foreign objects such as wires, fences, or other debris that could damage the blades or cause injury.
