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.

WARNING:

Outdoor use extension cords:

To reduce the risk of electric shock, use only with an extension cord intended for outdoor use, such as an extension cord of type SW-A, SOW-A, STW-A, STOW-A, SJW-A, SJOW-A, SJTW-A, or SJTOW-A.

IMPORTANT WARNINGS FOR STRING TRIMMERS

The guard must be installed before trimming or edging - if not, the motor will overheat.

When replacing the line, use only .065” diameter ROUND line - otherwise the unit will not function properly.

Do not bump the feed head against the ground - it will disrupt the feed mechanism.

Angle tool slightly (5˚ to 10˚) when trimming.

Always use the cord retainer.

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

SAFETY WARNINGS

DOUBLE INSULATION

Double insulated tools are constructed throughout with two separate layers of electrical insulation or one double thickness of insulation between you and the tool’s electrical system. Tools built with this insulation system are not intended to be grounded. As a result, your tool is equipped with a two prong plug which permits you to use extension cords without concern for maintaining a ground connection.

NOTE: Double insulation does not take the place of normal safety precautions when operating this tool. The insulation system is for added protection against injury resulting from a possible electrical insulation failure within the tool. REPLACEMENT PARTS: When servicing all tools, USE IDENTICAL REPLACEMENT PARTS.

POLARIZED PLUGS

Repair or replace damaged cords.

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.

SPECIFIC WARNING

WARNING: Some dust created by this product contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm.

Some examples of these chemicals are:

compounds in fertilizers

compounds in insecticides, herbicides and pesticides

arsenic and chromium from chemically treated lumber

To reduce your exposure to these chemicals, wear approved safety
