operation. If damaged, have the power tool
repaired before use. Many accidents are
caused by poorly maintained power tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting
edges are less likely to bind and are easier to
control.
g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits
etc. in accordance with these instructions,
taking into account the working conditions
and the work to be performed. Use of the
power tool for operations different from those
intended could result in a hazardous situation.
h) Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry,
clean and free from oil and grease. Slippery
handles and grasping surfaces do not allow
for safe handling and control of the tool in
unexpected situations.
5. Battery tool use and care
a) Recharge only with the charger specified by
the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for
one type of battery pack may create a risk of fire
when used with another battery pack .
b) Use power tools only with specifically
designated battery packs. Use of any other
battery packs may create a risk of injury and
fire.
c) When battery pack is not in use, keep it away
from other metal objects, like paper clips,
coins, keys, nails, screws or other small
metal objects, that can make a connection
from one terminal to another. Shorting the
battery terminals together may cause burns or a
fire.
d) Under abusive conditions, liquid may be
ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If
contact accidentally occurs, flush with water.
If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek
medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery
may cause irritation or burns.
e) Do not use a battery pack or tool that is
damaged or modified. Damaged or modified
batteries may exhibit unpredictable behaviour
resulting in fire, explosion or risk of injury.
f) Do not expose a battery pack or tool to
fire or excessive temperature. Exposure to
fire or temperature above 130 °C may cause
explosion.
g) Follow all charging instructions and do not
charge the battery pack or tool outside
the temperature range specified in the
instructions. Charging improperly or at
temperatures outside the specified range may
damage the battery and increase the risk of fire.
6. Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by a
qualified repair person using only identical
replacement parts. This will ensure that the
safety of the power tool is maintained.
b) Never service damaged battery packs.
Service of battery packs should only be
performed by the manufacturer or authorized
service providers.
HEDGE TRIMMER SAFETY
WARNINGS
a) Keep all parts of the body away from the
blade. 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 .
b) 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 .
c) 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 .
d) When clearing jammed material or servicing
the unit, make sure all power switches
are off and the battery back is removed or
disconnected. Unexpected actuation of the
hedge trimmer while clearing jammed material
or servicing may result in serious personal injury.
e) 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.
f) 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.
g) 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.
h) Check the hedges and bushes for foreign
objects, e.g. wire fences and hidden wiring.
i) Hold the hedge trimmer properly, e.g. with
both hands if two handles are provided.
j) The hedge trimmer is intended to be used
by the operator at ground level and not on
ladders or any other unstable support.
k) Before operating the hedge trimmer, the
user should make sure the locking device(s)
of any moving elements (e.g. the extended
shaft and pivoting element), if any, are in the
locked position.
l) Have any adjustable stopping mechanism
maintained at regular intervals.
