OPERATING POLE TRIMMER

WARNING: Read and un-

derstand this owner’s manual

before operating Pole Trimmer.

Make certain you read and un-

derstand all Safety Warnings

of this manual. Improper use of

this Pole Trimmer can result in

severe injury or death from ﬁ re,

electric shock, or body contact

with moving parts.

2. Grasp the power head motor housing

and rotate the power head to either the

0, 45, or 90 degree position.

CONNECTING EXTENSION CORD

The Pole Trimmer has a built-in extension

cord retainer to prevent the accidental discon-

nection of the unit from the extension cord

during use. It is molded into the lower hand

guard area of the trigger housing.

1. Make sure the trigger lever is in the

OFF position (see Starting the Pole

Trimmer

2. Plug the power cord into the extension

cord.

PIVOTING THE POWER HEAD

The Pole Trimmer is equipped with a power

head that pivots. The power head is able to

pivot a full 180 degrees. The power head

has a spring-loaded T-handle that allows it

to be locked into several different positions

within its 180-degree rotation.

Before connecting the Pole Trimmer to the

electrical supply, make sure the power head

is locked into position. Do this by trying to

rotate the power head in either direction. The

power head should be locked in position and

should not rotate.

To pivot the power head, follow the instruc-

tions below.

1. Pull out on the T-handle located on the

side of the pivot bracket. The T-handle

is spring-loaded, so you will feel some

resistance when pulling it out.

3. Release the T-handle. It should snap

back into its seated position. If it does

not, rotate the power head back and

forth slightly until the T-handle snaps

back into its seated position. The power

head is now locked into position and

ready for use.
