trimmer. Careful handling of
the appliance reduces the risk
of injury from the blade.
■
Hold the power tool by insu-
lated gripping surfaces
only, because the cutting
blade may contact con-
cealed electrical cables or
its own cable. Contact
between the cutting blade and
a live cable can result in elec-
trical current flowing through
metal parts of the appliance,
leading to an electric shock.
■
Keep the cable away from
the cutting area. During op-
eration, the cable can become
obscured in the bushes and
accidentally severed.

This power tool produces
an electromagnetic field
during operation. Under
certain circumstances, this
field may impair active or

In order to reduce the
risk of serious or fatal
injury, we recommend
that any persons fitted

should consult their doc-
tor and the manufac-
turer of the medical im-
plant before operating
the power tool.
■
Before cutting, check the
hedges and bushes for con-
cealed objects – e.g. wires,
wire fences, electrical cables,
garden equipment, bottles –
and remove them.
■

ance so that persons and an-
imals cannot touch the cutting
blade. Before transport, push
