- Carry the hedge trimmer by the handle with the blade stopped and
taking care not to operate any power switch. Proper carrying of the
hedge trimmer will decrease the risk of inadvertent starting and resultant
personal injury from the blades.
- When transporting or storing the hedge trimmer, always fit the
blade cover. Proper handling of the hedge trimmer will decrease the risk
of personal injury from the blades.
- When clearing jammed material or servicing the unit, make sure all
power switches are off and the battery pack is removed or
disconnected. Unexpected actuation of the hedge trimmer while
clearing jammed material or servicing may result in serious personal
injury.
- Hold the hedge trimmer by insulated gripping surfaces only,
because the blade may contact hidden wiring. Blades contacting a
"live" wire may make exposed metal parts of the hedge trimmer "live"
and could give the operator an electric shock.
- Keep all power cords and cables away from cutting area. Power
cords or cables may be hidden in hedges or bushes and can be
accidentally cut by the blade.
- Do not use the hedge trimmer in bad weather conditions, especially
when there is a risk of lightning. This decreases the risk of being
struck by lightning.
- Before starting work, search the hedge for hidden objects, e.g. wire,
etc. This will prevent damage to the equipment.
- Hold the hedge trimmer correctly, e.g. with both hands on the hand
grips if it has two of them. Injuries may occur if you lose control over
the device.
- Wear suitable clothing and work gloves when working with the
device. Never touch or pick up the device by the cutting blade.
Injuries may occur from contact with the cutting blade.
