Always switch off the motor and make
sure the cutting attachment has stopped
before putting an electric edger down.
When transporting your electric edger in
a vehicle, properly secure it to prevent
turnover and damage to the electric
edger.
Appropriate extension cords are
available in special stores for electrical
equipment.
!
Warning!
An arrow on the deflector shows the
correct direction of rotation of the cutting
blade.
The deflector can be rotated to suit
working conditions. The arrow on the
deflector must always face away from
you, so that cuttings and other dedris will
be diverted away from the machine and
your position (see chapter "Working
Techniques").
The cutting tool must be properly
tightened and safe operating condition.
Inspect for loose parts (nuts, screws,
etc.) and for cracked, bent, warped or
damaged blades.
To reduce the risk of unintentional
starting, never carry a plugged in unit
with your finger on the switch. Be sure
the switch is off when plugged in.
Preparation for the use of the electric
edger
Toreduce the likelihood of disconnection
and the risk of electric shock, always
retain the extension cord by means of
the retaining device on the trimmer
handle as shown in the chapter entitled
"Starting" in your owner's manual.
Adjust hand grip to suit your size before
stating work.
!
Warning!
The machine should be properly
balanced as specified in your owner's
manual for proper control and less
fatigue in operation. Always check your
electric edger for proper condition and
operation before starting, particularly the
power supply cord, plug, switch, cutting
tool and deflector.
Avoid damage to the power supply cord.
Keep cord away from heat, oil and sharp
edges. Never carry trimmer by power
cable or yank power cable to disconnect
the plug from the wall outlet.
To unplug, grasp the plug not the cord.
!
Warning!
Inspect the power supply cord and plug
before and after each use for signs of
damage or aging.
