RULES FOR SAFE OPERATION (Continued)

EXTENSION CORDS. The use of any

extension cord will cause some loss of

power. To keep the loss to a minimum and

to prevent tool overheating, be sure to use

an extension cord heavy enough to carry

the current your product will draw. For

lengths less than 100 feet, No. 16 A.W.G,

extension cords should be used. Follow the

recommended cord sizes on the following

chart when using extension cords. If in

doubt, use the next heavier gage. The

smaller the gage number the heavier the

cord. For tools rated 6 amps or less;

Extension Cord Length Wire Size A.W.G.

25 Feet 18

50 Feet 16

100 Feet 16

150 Feet 14

To reduce the risk of disconnection of hedge

trimmer from the extension cord during

operation:

(1) Use the extension cord retainer as shown

in Figure 5, or

(2) Make a knot as shown in Figure 6.

A WARNING: Check extension cords before

each use. If damaged, replace immediately.

Never use tool with a damaged cord since

touching the damaged area could cause

glectrical shock resulting in serious injury.

■ POLARIZED PLUGS. To reduce the risk of

electric shock, this appliance has a polar

ized plug (one blade is wider than the other)

and will require the use of a polarized

extension cord. The appliance plug will fit

into a polarized extension cord only one

way. If the plug does not fit fully into the

extension cord, reverse the plug. If the plug

still does not fit, obtain a correct polarized

extension cord. A polarized extension cord

will require the use of a polarized wall

outlet. This plug will fit into the polarized

wall outlet only one way. If the plug does

not fit fully into the wall outlet, reverse the

plug. If the plug still does not fit, contact a

qualified electrician to install the proper wall

outlet. Do not change the equipment plug,

extension cord receptacle, or extension

cord plug in any way.

■ SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS. Refer to

them frequently and use them to instruct

others who may use this tool. If you loan

someone this tool, loan them these instruc

tions.

WARNING:

The operation of any hedge trimmer can result in foreign objects being thrown into your

eyes, which can result in severe eye damage. Before beginning power tool operation,

always wear safety goggles or safety glasses with side shields and a full face shield when

needed. We recommend Wide Vision Safety Mask for use over eyeglasses or standard

safety glasses with side shields, available at Sears Retail Stores.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

ASSEMBLY

A WARNING; Your hedge trimmer should never be plugged in while you are assembling parts or making

adjustments. Always wear safety goggles or safety glasses with side shields and a full face shield if needed

when operating your hedge trimmer.
