IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Maintain a firm grip on both handles while trimming. Keep string head below waist level. Never cut with the string head located over 30 in. or more above the ground. Store idle appliances indoors - When not in use, string trimmer should be stored indoors in a dry, locked place out of the reach of children. Never use blades, flailing devices, wire or rope. Unit is designed for line trimmer use only. Use of any other accessories or attachments will increase the risk of injury. Inspect area to be cut. Remove objects (rocks, broken glass, nails, wire, string, etc.) which can be thrown or become entangled in cutting head. Keep the air vents clean and free of debris to avoid overheating the motor. Clean after each use. Stop the unit and disconnect the power source when not in use. Carry the unit with the motor stopped. Store out of the reach of children. Do not hang unit so that the switch trigger is depressed. Battery tools do not have to be plugged into an electrical outlet; therefore, they are always in operating condition. Be aware of possible hazards when not using your battery tool or when changing accessories. Always engage the lock-out lever before placing the trimmer on the wallmounted charger. Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, or serious personal injury. Use appliances only with specifically designated battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire. Recharge only with the charger specified by the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with another battery pack. When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects, like paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other small metal objects, that can make a connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery terminals together may cause burns or a fire. Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the battery pack or appliance outside of the temperature range specified in the instructions. Charging improperly or at temperatures outside of the specified range may damage the battery and increase the risk of fire. Have servicing performed by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the product is maintained. Do not modify or attempt to repair the appliance or the battery pack except as indicated in the instructions for use and care. Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns. Do not use a battery pack or appliance that is damaged or modified. Damaged or modified batteries may exhibit unpredictable behavior resulting in fire, explosion or risk of injury. Do not expose a battery pack or appliance to fire or excessive temperature. Exposure to fire or temperature above 265°F may cause explosion. Do not charge battery tool in rain, or damp or wet location. Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock. Do not use battery-operated appliance in rain. Remove or disconnect battery when not charging, and before servicing, cleaning, removing material from the gardening appliance, or storing. Use this product only with batteries and chargers listed in tool/appliance/battery pack/charger correlation supplement 987000-432. Do not dispose of the batteries in a fire. The cell may explode. Check with local codes for possible special disposal instructions. Do not open or mutilate the batteries. Released electrolyte is corrosive and may cause damage to the eyes or skin. It may be toxic if swallowed. Do not place battery tools or their batteries near fire or heat. This will reduce the risk of explosion and possibly injury. Batteries can explode in the presence of a source of ignition, such as a pilot light. To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, never use any cordless product in the presence of open flame. An exploded battery can propel debris and chemicals. If exposed, flush with water immediately. Do not crush, drop or damage battery pack. Do not use a battery pack or charger that has been dropped or received a sharp blow. A damaged battery is subject to explosion. Properly dispose of a dropped or damaged battery immediately. For best results, your battery tool should be charged in a location where the temperature is more than 50°F but less than 100°F. To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, do not store outside or in vehicles. Under extreme usage or temperature conditions, battery leakage may occur. If liquid comes in contact with your skin, wash immediately with soap and water. If liquid gets into your eyes, flush them with clean water for at least 10 minutes, then seek immediate medical attention. Following this rule will reduce the risk of serious personal injury.
