Switching On/Off

15
• Press with your thumbs the stopping button (9) on
the left side of the rear handle and then the operating
switch (10).
• The stopping button (9) is used for unlocking the
switch-on mechanism and does not need to be
pressed again after the device is switched on.
• To switch off the device, release switch (10).
Note: The sparks (flashes) developing from this in the
area of the upper ventilation slots are normal and harm-
less for the device.
The model is with an additional „Power-switch" (15)
feature. This can vary the output in 2 steps. High (II) =
higher performance, low (I) = reduced performance. In
the position „low" will increase the battery time to about
twice the duration, while the speed of the hedge trimmer
is lowered. You can use this setting for lighter work to
increase the battery life.

Attachment of the Shoulder Belt
