or storing the hedge trimmer
always it the cutting device
cover. Proper handling of the hedge
trimmer will reduce possible personal
injury from the cutter blades.
• Always ensure that all handles
and safety devices are securely
mounted when you use the
hedge trimmer. Never try to use an
incompletely assembled hedge trimmer
or a hedge trimmer with impermissible
modiications.
• Always be familiar with your surround-
ings and pay attention to potential
dangers that you may not be able
to hear because of the noise of the
hedge trimmer.
• During transport or storage, the cutter
unit of the hedge trimmer must always
be covered with the protective hood of
the cutter unit.
• Where possible, connect the equip-
ment only to a plug socket with a leak-
age-current-operated circuit breaker
(Residual Current Device), with a rated
current of not more than 30 mA.
• Hold the electric tool by the in-
sulated handle surfaces when
performing work where the
cutting tool may come into con-
tact with hidden wiring. Contact
with a live wire can also cause a
charge in metal parts of the appliance
and result in an electric shock.
• Carefully inspect the area to be cut and
remove all wires or other foreign bodies.
• Prior to every use, check the appliance
for obvious defects such as loose,
worn or damaged parts.
• Ensure that the device is
switched off before inserting
the battery. Inserting a battery into
a power tool that is switched on may
result in accidents.
• Recharge the batteries indoors
only because the battery charg-
er is designed for indoor use
only. Risk of electric shock.
• To reduce the electric shock
hazard, unplug the battery
charger from the mains before
cleaning the charger.
• Do not subject the battery to
strong sunlight over long pe-
riods and do not leave it on a
heater. Heat damages the battery
and there is a risk of explosion.
• Allow a hot battery to cool be-
fore charging.
• Do not open up the battery and
avoid mechanical damage to
the battery. Risk of short circuit
and fumes may be emitted that
irritate the respiratory tract.
Ensure fresh air and seek medical as-
sistance in the event of discomfort. Af-
ter eye/skin contact, rinse the affected
areas with water or a neutraliser and
consult a doctor.
• Do not use non-rechargeable
batteries. This could damage the ap-
pliance.
• The appliance is not for use by children
