GENERAL SAFETY WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS FOR ALL APPLIANCES

•AVOID DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENT. Don’t use appliances in damp or wet locations. Don’t use appliances in the rain.

•KEEP CHILDREN AWAY. All visitors should be kept at a distance from work area.

•STORE IDLE APPLIANCES INDOORS. When not in use, appliances should be stored indoors in dry, and high or locked-up place – out of reach of children.

•DON’T FORCE APPLIANCE. It will do the job better and with less likelihood of a risk of injury at the rate for which it was designed.

•USE RIGHT APPLIANCE. Do not use the appliance for any job except that for which it is intended.

•DRESS PROPERLY. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. They can be caught in moving parts. Rubber gloves and substantial, non-skid footwear are recommended when working outdoors. Wear protective hair covering to contain long hair.

•USE SAFETY GLASSES AND OTHER SAFETY EQUIPMENT. Use safety goggles or safety glasses with side shields, complying with applicable safety standards and, when needed, a face shield. Also use face or dust mask if operation is dusty. This applies to all persons in the work area. Also use a hard hat, hearing protection, gloves, safety shoes and dust collection systems when specified or required. Safety glasses or the like are available at extra cost at your local dealer or Black & Decker Service Center.

•DON’T ABUSE CORD. Never carry appliance by cord or yank it to disconnect from receptacle. Keep cord from heat, oil, and sharp edges.

•DON’T OVERREACH. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.

•MAINTAIN APPLIANCE WITH CARE. Keep cutting edge sharp and clean for best performance and to reduce the risk of injury. Follow instructions for lubricating and changing accessories. Inspect appliance cord periodically and if damaged, have it repaired by authorized service facility. Inspect extension cords periodically and replace if damaged. Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil and grease.

•DISCONNECT APPLIANCES. Disconnect the appliance from the power supply when not in use, before servicing, and when changing accessories such as blades and the like.

•AVOID UNINTENTIONAL STARTING. Don’t carry plugged-in appliance with finger on switch. Be sure switch is off when plugging in.

•GROUND FAULT CIRCUIT INTERRUPTER (GFCI) protection should be provided on the circuits or outlets to be used for the gardening appliance. Receptacles are available having built in GFCI protection and may be used for this measure of safety.

•STAY ALERT. Watch what you are doing. Use common sense. Do not operate appliance when you are tired.

•CHECK DAMAGED PARTS. Before further use of the appliance, 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 for alignment of moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, mounting and any

other conditions that may affect its operation. A guard or other part that is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced by an authorized service center unless otherwise indicated elsewhere in this manual.

•USE OF ACCESSORIES AND ATTACHMENTS. The use of any accessory or attachment not recommended for use with this appliance could be hazardous. Note: Refer to the accessory section of this manual for further details.

•EXTENSION CORDS. Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. An undersized extension cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. The table below shows the correct size to use depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord. To reduce the risk of disconnection of the appliance from the extension cord during operation, use the extension cord retainer described in this manual.

IMPORTANT WARNINGS FOR STRING TRIMMERS

1.Use the proper size and type of cutting line. Do not use metal wire, rope or the like. Do not use cutting line heavier than that recommended by the manufacturer. See the accessory section of this manual for more detailed information about the proper cutting line to use.

2.Keep the cutting line trimmed to the proper length (done automatically by the appliance). Make sure that the guard is firmly in place, in working order and positioned between yourself and the cutting line.

3.Wear long pants and substantial footwear to protect yourself from injury caused by flying debris. This is especially important when edging with the appliance.

To reduce the risk of electric shock, this equipment has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). This equipment must be used with a suitable polarized 2 wire or 3 wire extension cord. Polarized connections will fit together only one way. Make sure that the receptacle end of the extension cord has large and small blade slot widths. If the plug does not fit fully into the extension cord, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, obtain a suitable extension cord. If the extension cord does not fit fully into the outlet, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper outlet. Do not change the tool plug or extension cord in any way.
