TRIMMING A HEDGE
Use the Pole Trimmer properly. Always
wear eye protection, rubber gloves, and
substantial foot wear while using the Pole
Trimmer. Always maintain proper footing
and balance and never overreach when us-
ing Pole Trimmer. Before starting the Pole
Trimmer, hold the unit with both hands on
the grip areas. Make sure that the cutter
blade is not touching anything.
Always keep the extension cord behind the
Pole Trimmer when in use. Do not drape the
cord over the hedge where it may be cut by
the blades.
Use smooth steady sweeping motions to
trim new growth. Do not try to cut too much
at one time. This can cause the Pole Trim-
mer to slow down or get jammed, reducing
the cutting efficiency.
CLEANING ANDMAINTENANCE WARNING: Disconnect Pole
Trimmer from power supply be-
fore cleaning or servicing. Severe
injury or death could occur from
fire, electrical shock, or body con-
tact with moving cutter blades.

•Do not submerse Pole Trim-
mer in any liquids
•Do not use products that con-
tain Ammonia, Chlorine, or

•Do not use chlorinated clean-
ing solvents, Carbon Tetrachlo-
ride, Kerosene, or Gasoline.
Use a soft cloth dampened with a mild soap
and water mixture to wipe Pole Trimmer
pole, housing, and cutter blades clean. Do
not spray or pour water directly onto Pole
Trimmer.
Once the Pole Trimmer is cleaned, apply a
light coat of oil to the cutter blades to pre-
vent rust and provide lubrication (motor oil
