power tool may result in personal injury.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
This enables better control of the power in unexpected situations.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep
your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose
clothes, jewellery, or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction
and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and
properly used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related
hazards.
POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your
application. The correct power tool will do the job better and safer
at the rate for which it was designed.
Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on
and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with switch is
dangerous and must be repaired.
Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery
pack from the power tool before making any adjustments,
changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive
safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool
accidentally.
Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do
not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these
instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are
dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of
moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that
may affect the power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the
power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by
poorly maintained power tools.
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting
tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier
to control.
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.
BATTERY TOOL USE AND CARE
Recharge only with the charger specied by the manufacturer.
A charger that is suitable for one type of battery pack may create a
risk of re when used with another battery pack.
Use power tools only with specically designated battery
packs. Use of any other battery packs may create a risk of injury
and re.
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 re.
Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the
battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally occurs, ush
with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical
help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.
SERVICE
Have your power tool serviced by a qualied repair person
using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that
safety of the power tool is maintained.
HEDGE TRIMMER WARNINGS
Keep all parts of the body away from the cutter blade. Do not
remove the cut material or hold the material to be cut when
blades are moving. Make sure the switch is off when clearing
jammed materials. A moment of inattention while operating the
hedge trimmer may result in serious personal injury.
Carry the hedge trimmer by the handle with cutter blade
stopped. When transporting or storing the hedge trimmer
always t the cutting device cover. Proper handling of the hedge
trimmer reduces possible personal injury from the cutter blades.
Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces only,
because the cutter blade may contact hidden wiring. Cutter
blades contacting a “live” wire may make exposed metal parts
of the power tool “live” and could give the operator an electric
shock.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY WARNINGS
Clear the work area before each use. Remove all objects, such
as cords, lights, wires, or strings which can be thrown or become
entangled in the cutting means.
Check the hedge for foreign objects, such as wire fences.
Never use the product near posts, fences, buildings, or other
immovable objects.
Beware of thrown objects; keep all bystanders, children, and pets at
least 15 m away from work area.
Do not operate in poor lighting. The operator requires a clear view
of the work area to identify potential hazards.
Inspect the product before each use. Check for loose fasteners,
etc. Make sure all guards and handles are properly and securely
attached. Replace any damaged parts before use. Check for battery
pack leaks.
Do not modify the product in any way.
Do not allow children or untrained individuals to use the product.
Wear full eye and hearing protection while operating the product.
If working in an area where there is a risk of falling objects, wear
appropiate head protection.
Secure long hair so it is above shoulder level to prevent
entanglement in moving parts.
Do not use the product when you are tired, ill, or under the inuence
of alcohol, drugs, or medication.
Keep rm footing and balance. Do not overreach. Overreaching can
result in loss of balance or exposure to hot surfaces.
Before starting the product, make sure the cutting blades will not
come in contact with anything.
While operating the hedge trimmer, always hold it rmly with both
hands by the two handles. Ensure that the operating position is
safe and secure. The manufacturer does not recommend the use
of steps or ladders. If higher trimming is required, use an extended-
reach tool.
Blades are sharp. When handling the blade assembly, wear non-
slip, heavy duty protective gloves. Do not place your hand or ngers
between blades or in any position where they could get pinched
or cut. Never touch the blade nor service the product unless the
battery pack is removed.
Switch off and remove the battery pack before:
■adjusting the working position of the cutting means
■cleaning or clearing a blockage
■leaving the product unattended
■checking, conducting maintenance, or working on the product
Do not force the product through heavy shrubbery. This can cause
the blades to bind and slow down. If the blades slow down, reduce
the pace.
Do not attempt to cut stems or twigs that are larger than 28 mm, or
those obviously too large to feed into the cutting blade. Use a non-
powered hand saw or pruning saw to trim large stems.
Use of hearing protection reduces the ability to hear warnings
(shouts or alarms). The operator must pay extra attention to what is
going on in the working area.
WARNING! If the product is dropped, suffers heavy impact,
or begins to vibrate abnormally, immediately stop the product
and inspect for damage or identify the cause of the vibration.
Any damage should be properly repaired or replaced by an
authorised service centre.

MAINTENANCE
WARNING! Use only original manufacturer’s replacement
parts, accessories, and attachments. Failure to do so can cause
possible injury and poor performance, and may void your warranty.
WARNING! Servicing requires extreme care and knowledge
and should be performed only by a qualied service technician.
For service, bring the product to an authorised service centre. When
servicing, use only identical replacement parts.
WARNING! The blades are extremely sharp. To prevent
personal injury, exercise extreme caution when cleaning, lubricating
and fitting or removing the blade protector.
Remove the battery before adjusting, maintaining, or cleaning the
product.
You may make adjustments and repairs described in the manual.
For other repairs, contact the authorised service agent.
After each use, clean the body and handles of the product with a
soft, dry cloth.
After each use, clean the debris from the blades with a stiff brush,
and then carefully apply a rust preventative lubricant before retting
the blade protector. The manufacturer recommends you to use a
rust preventative and lubricant spray to apply an even distribution
and reduce the risk of personal injury from contact with the blades.
For information about suitable spray product check with your local
authorised service centre.
You may wish to lubricate the blades lightly before use if necessary
using the above method.
Check all nuts, bolts, and screws at frequent intervals for proper
tightness to ensure the product is in safe working condition. Any
part that is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced by an
authorised service centre.
RESIDUAL RISKS
Even when the product is used as prescribed, it is still impossible
to completely eliminate certain residual risk factors. The following
hazards may arise in use and the operator should pay special
attention to avoid the following:
■Injury caused by contact with the blades. Contact with the
blades can cause serious injury. Keep the blade away from
yourself and others. Cover it with the blade protector whenever
you are not cutting.
■Injury caused by vibration. Always use the right tool for the job,
use designated handles and restrict working time and exposure.
■Hearing injury caused by exposure to noise. Wear ear protection
and limit exposure.
RISK REDUCTION
It has been reported that vibrations from handheld tools may
contribute to a condition called Raynaud’s Syndrome. Symptoms
may include tingling, numbness, and blanching of the ngers,
usually apparent upon exposure to cold. Hereditary factors,
exposure to cold and dampness, diet, smoking and work practices
are all thought to contribute to the development of the these
symptoms. There are measures that can be taken by the operator
to possibly reduce the effects of vibration:
■Keep your body warm in cold weather. When operating the unit
wear gloves to keep the hands and wrists warm.
■After each period of operation, exercise to increase blood
circulation.
■Take frequent work breaks. Limit the amount of exposure per
day.
■If you experience any of the symptoms of this condition,
immediately discontinue use and see your doctor.
WARNING! Injuries may be caused, or aggravated, by
prolonged use of the product. When using any tool for prolonged
periods, ensure you take regular breaks
