GENERAL POWER TOOL
SAFETY WARNINGS
WARNING
Read all safety warnings and all
instructions. Failure to follow the
warnings and instructions may result in
electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for
future reference.
The term "power tool" in the warnings
refers to your mains-operated (corded)
power tool or battery-operated (cordless)
power tool.
1) Work area safety
a) Keep work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
b) Do not operate power tools in
explosive atmospheres, such as in
the presence of flammable liquids,
gases or dust. Power tools create
sparks which may ignite the dust or
fumes.
c) Keep children and bystanders
away while operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose
control.
2) Electrical safety
a) Power tool plugs must match the
outlet. Never modify the plug in any
way. Do not use any adapter plugs
with earthed (grounded) power tools.
Unmodified plugs and matching outlets
will reduce risk of electric shock.
b) Avoid body contact with earthed or
grounded surfaces, such as pipes,
radiators, ranges and refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of electric
shock if your body is earthed or
grounded.
c) Do not expose power tools to rain or
wet conditions. Water entering a power
tool will increase the risk of electric
shock.
d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use
the cord for carrying, pulling or
unplugging the power tool. Keep cord
away from heat, oil, sharp edges or
moving parts. Damaged or entangled
cords increase the risk of electric shock.
e) When operating a power tool
outdoors, use an extension cord
suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord
suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk
of electric shock.
f) If operating a power tool in a
damp location is unavoidable, use
a residual current device (RCD)
protected supply. Use of an RCD
reduces the risk of electric shock.
3) Personal safety
a) Stay alert, watch what you are
doing and use common sense when
operating a power tool. Do not use
a power tool while you are tired or
under the influence of drugs, alcohol

or medication. A moment of inattention
while operating power tools may result in
serious personal injury.
b) Use personal protective equipment.
Always wear eye protection. Protective
equipment such as dust mask, non-
skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing
protection used for appropriate
conditions will reduce personal injuries.
c) Prevent unintentional starting.
Ensure the switch is in the off-
position before connecting to power
source and/or battery pack, picking
up or carrying the tool. Carrying power
tools with your finger on the switch or
energising power tools that have the
switch on invites accidents.
d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench
before turning the power tool on.
A wrench or a key left attached to a
rotating part of the power tool may result
in personal injury.
e) Do not overreach. Keep proper
footing and balance at all times. This
enables better control of the power tool
in unexpected situations.
f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose
clothing or jewellery. Keep your
hair, clothing and gloves away from
moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery
or long hair can be caught in moving
parts.
g) If devices are provided for the
connection of dust extraction and
collection facilities, ensure these are
connected and properly used. Use of
dust collection can reduce dust-related
hazards.
4) Power tool use and care
a) Do not force the power tool. Use
the correct power tool for your
application. The correct power tool will
do the job better and safer at the rate for
which it was designed.
b) Do not use the power tool if the
switch does not turn it on and off. Any
power tool that cannot be controlled with
the switch is dangerous and must be
repaired.
c) Disconnect the plug from the
power source and/or the battery
pack from the power tool before
making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing power tools.
Such preventive safety measures
reduce the risk of starting the power tool
accidentally.
d) Store idle power tools out of the
reach of children and do not allow
persons unfamiliar with the power
tool or these instructions to operate
the power tool. Power tools are
dangerous in the hands of untrained
users.
e) Maintain power tools. Check for
misalignment or binding of moving
parts, breakage of parts and any other
condition that may affect the power
tool’s operation. If damaged, have
the power tool repaired before use.
Many accidents are caused by poorly
maintained power tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly maintained cutting tools with
sharp cutting edges are less likely to
bind and are easier to control.
g) Use the power tool, accessories and
tool bits etc. in accordance with these
instructions, taking into account the
working conditions and the work to
be performed. Use of the power tool for
operations different from those intended
could result in a hazardous situation.
5) Battery tool use and care
a) 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.
b) Use power tools only with
specifically designated battery packs.
Use of any other battery packs may
create a risk of injury and fire.
c) When battery pack is not in use, keep
5WWW.SENIXTOOLS.COM
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.
d) 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.
6) Service
Have your power tool serviced by a
qualified repair person using only
identical replacement parts. This will
ensure that the safety of the power tool
is maintained.
HEDGE TRIMMER SAFETY
WARNINGS

ELECTRICAL SAFETY
1. Ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI)
protection should be provided on the
circuit(s) or outlet(s) to be used for this
electric hedge trimmer. Receptacles are
available having built-in GFCI protection
and may be used for this measure of
safety.
2. To reduce the risk of electric shock, this
appliance has a polarized plug (i.e. one
blade is wider than the other). Use this
appliance only with a polarized UL-,
CSA-, or ETL-listed extension cord
recommended for outdoor,all-weather
use. The appliance plug will t into a
polarized extension cord only one way. If
the appliance plug does not t fully into
the extension cord, reverse the plug. If
the plug still does not t, obtain a correct
polarized extension cord. A polarized
extension cord will require the use of a
polarized wall outlet. The extension cord
plug will t into the polarized wall outlet
only one way. If the plug does not t fully
into the wall outlet, reverse the plug.
If the plug still does not t, contact a
qualied electrician to install the proper
wall outlet. Do not modify the appliance
plug, extension cord receptacle, or
extension cord plug in any way.
3. To prevent electric shock, use only with
an extension cord suitable for outdoor
use, such as SW-A, SOW-A, STW-A,
STOW-A, SJW-A, SJOW-A, SJTW-A,
or SJTOW-A. Before use, check that
the extension cord is in good condition.
When using an extension cord, make
sure to use one heavy enough to carry
the current product. An undersized cord
will cause a drop in line voltage resulting
in loss of power and overheating.
EXTENSION CORDS
Use a proper extension cord. ONLY use
cords listed by underwriters Laboratories
(UL). Other extension cords can cause a
drop in line voltage, resulting in a loss of
power
and overheating of tool.
For this tool an AWG (American Wire
Gauge) size of a least 14-gauge is
recommended for an extension cord of 25-
ft. or less in length. Use 12-gauge for an
extension cord of 50-ft. Extension cords
100-ft. or longer are not recommended.
Remember, a smaller wire gauge size
has greater capacity than a larger
number (14-gauge wire has more capacity
than 16-gauge wire; 12-gauge wire has
more capacity than 14-gauge). When in
doubt use the smaller number.
