2. Before use always check that the equipment
is safe for operation. Check the security of the
cutting tool and the guard and the switch trig-
ger/lever for easy and proper action. Check for
clean and dry handles and test the function of
the start/stop.
Check damaged parts before further use of the
3.
equipment. A guard or other part that is dam-
aged should be carefully checked to determine
that it will operate properly and perform its
intended function. Check for alignment of mov-
ing parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of
parts, mounting, and any other condition that
may affect its operation. A guard or other part
that is damaged should be properly repaired
or replaced by our authorized service center
unless indicated elsewhere in this manual.
4. Switch on the motor only when the hands and
feet are away from the cutting tool.
Before starting make sure that the cutting tool
5.
has no contact with any objects.
Method of operation
Only use the equipment in good light and
1.
visibility. During the winter season beware
of slippery or wet areas, ice and snow (risk
of slipping). Always ensure a safe footing on
slopes and be sure to walk and never run.
2. Take care against injury to feet and hands from
the cutting tool.
Never stand on a ladder and run the
3.
equipment.
Never climb up into trees to perform cutting
4.
operation with the equipment.
5. Never work on unstable surfaces.
6. Remove sand, stones, nails etc. found within
the working range. Foreign particles may dam-
age the cutting tool and can cause dangerous
kick-backs.
7. Should the cutting tool hit stones or other hard
objects, immediately switch off the motor and
inspect the cutting tool.
8. Inspect the cutting tool at short regular inter-
vals for damage (detection of hairline cracks
by means of tapping-noise test).
9. Before commencing cutting, the cutting tool
must have reached full working speed.
10. The cutting tool has to be equipped with the
appropriate guard. Never run the equipment
with damaged guards or without guards in
place!
11. All protective installations and guards sup-
plied with the equipment must be used during
operation.
12. Always remove the battery cartridge from the
equipment:
whenever leaving the equipment
—
unattended;
— before clearing a blockage;
— before checking, cleaning or working on
the equipment;
— after striking a foreign object;
whenever the equipment starts vibrating
—
abnormally.
13. Always ensure that the ventilation openings
are kept clear of debris.
14. Cutting means continues to run after the motor
is switched off.
15. If the blades stop moving due to the stuck of
foreign objects between the blades during
operation, switch off the tool and remove the
battery cartridge, and then remove the foreign
objects using tools such as pliers. Removing
the foreign objects by hand may cause an injury
for the reason that the blades may move in reac-
tion to removing the foreign objects.

Cordless Hedge Trimmer Safety
Warnings
Keep all parts of the body away from the blade.
1.
Do not remove cut material or hold material
to be cut when blades are moving. Blades
continue to move after the switch is turned off. A
moment of inattention while operating the hedge
trimmer may result in serious personal injury.
2. 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 start-
ing and resultant personal injury from the blades.
3. When transporting or storing the hedge trim-
mer, 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
4.
the unit, make sure all power switches are off
and the battery pack is removed or discon-
nected. Unexpected actuation of the hedge trim-
mer while clearing jammed material or servicing
may result in serious personal injury.
5. 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 trim-
mer "live" and could give the operator an electric
shock.
