ENGLISH (Original instructions)
Intended use
Your BLACK+DECKERTM BEHTS551 hedgetrimmers has
been designed for trimming hedges, shrubs and brambles.
This tool is intended for consumer use only.
Safety instructions
General power tool safety warnings
Warning! Read all safety warnings and all
instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions listed below may result in electric
shock, re and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
The term "power tool" in the warnings refers to your mains
operated (corded) power tool or battery operated (cordless)
power tool.
1. Work area safety
a. Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark
areas invite accidents.
b. Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres,
such as in the presence of ammable liquids, gases
or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the
dust or fumes.
c. Keep children and bystanders away while operating a
power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
2. Electrical safety
a. Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify
the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs
with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodied plugs
and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
b. Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded
surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and
refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock
if your body is earthed or grounded.
c. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.
Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of
electric shock.
d. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for
carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep
cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving
parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of
electric shock.
e. When operating a power tool outdoors, use an
extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord
suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
f. If operating a power tool in a damp location is
unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD)
protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of
electric shock.
3. Personal safety
a. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common
sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a
power tool while you are tired or under the inuence
of drugs, alcohol or medication. Amoment of inattention
while operating power tools may result in serious personal
injury.
b. Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye
protection. Protective equipment such as dust mask,
non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection
used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal
injuries.
c. Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in
the off-position before connecting to power source
and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool.
Carrying power tools with your nger on the switch or
energising power tools that have the switch on invites
accidents.
d. Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning
the power tool on. Awrench or a key left attached to a
rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
e. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at
all times. This enables better control of the power tool in
unexpected situations.
f. 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.
g. 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.
h) Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of tools
allow you to become complacent and ignore tool
safety principles. Acareless action can cause severe
injury within a fraction of a second.
4. Power tool use and care
a. 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.
b. Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it
on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with
the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
c. 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.

ENGLISH
(Original instructions)
d. 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.
e. Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or
binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any
other condition that may affect the power tools
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. Service
a. Have your power tool serviced by a qualied repair
person using only identical replacement parts. This
will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
Additional power tool safety warnings
@Warning!Additional safety warnings for hedge
trimmers
uKeep all parts of the body away from the cutter blade.
Do not remove cut material or hold material to be cut
when blades are moving. Make sure the switch is off
when clearing jammed material. Amoment of inattention
while operating the tool can result in serious personal
injury.
uCarry the hedge trimmer by the handle with the cutter
blade stopped. When transporting or storing the
hedge trimmer always t the cutting device cover.
Proper handling of the hedge trimmer will reduce possible
personal injury from the cutter blades.
uWhen transporting or storing the hedge trimmer,
always t the blade cover. Proper handling of the hedge
trimmer will decrease the risk of personal injury from the
blades.
uWhen clearing jammed material or servicing the unit,
make sure all power switches are off and the power
cord is disconnected. Unexpected actuation of the
hedge trimmer while clearing jammed material or servicing
may result in serious personal injury.
uDo not use the hedge trimmer in bad weather condi-
tions, especially when there is a risk of lightning. This
decreases the risk of being struck by lightning.
uHold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces
only, because the cutter blade may contact hidden

ENGLISH (Original instructions)
Even with the application of the relevant safety regulations
and the implementation of safety devices, certain residual
risks can not be avoided. These include:
uInjuries caused by touching any rotating/moving parts.
uInjuries caused when changing any parts, blades or ac-
cessories.
uInjuries caused by prolonged use of a tool. When using
any tool for prolonged periods ensure you take regular
breaks.
uImpairment of hearing.
uHealth hazards caused by breathing dust developed when
using your tool (example:- working with wood, especially
oak, beech and MDF.)
Vibration
The declared vibration emission values stated in the technical
data and the declaration of conformity have been measured
in accordance with a standard test method provided by
EN 62841 and may be used for comparing one tool with
another. The declared vibration emission value may also be
used in a preliminary assessment of exposure.
Warning! The vibration emission value during actual use of
the power tool can differ from the declared value depending
on the ways in which the tool is used. The vibration level may
increase above the level stated.
When assessing vibration exposure to determine safety
measures required by 2002/44/EC to protect persons regularly
using power tools in employment, an estimation of vibration
exposure should consider, the actual conditions of use and the
way the tool is used, including taking account of all parts of the
operating cycle such as the times when the tool is switched off
and when it is running idle in addition to the trigger time.
Labels on tool
The following pictograms are shown on the tool along with the
date code:
Warning! To reduce the risk of injury, the user
must read the instruction manual.

Guidelines for trimming
Extension cord (g. F)
uAlways keep extension cord behind trimmer and away
from the trimming operation as shown in gure F. Never
drape it over a hedge being trimmed.
If you cut or damage the cord, unplug it at the electrical
outlet immediately, before inspecting or repairing cord.
Working position
uMaintain proper footing and balance and do not over-
reach.
uWear safety goggles, non-skid footwear and rubber gloves
when trimming.
uHold the tool rmly in both hands and turn the tool ON.
Always hold the trimmer, as shown in Fig. D, with one
hand on the switch handle and one hand on the auxiliary
handle. Never hold the tool by the blade guard.
Trimming new growth (g.G)
uAwide, sweeping motion, feeding the blade teeth through
the twigs is most effective.Aslight downward tilt of the
blade, in the direction of motion gives the best cutting.
Warning! Do not use trimmer for cutting stems greater than
16 mm. Use the trimmer only for cutting normal shrubbery
found around houses and buildings.
Level hedges (g.H)
uTo obtain exceptionally level hedges, a piece of string can
be stretched along the length of the hedge as a guide.
Side trimming hedges (g.I)
uBegin at the bottom and sweep up.
Sawblade (g.J)
uFor branches too large for the blade (1) to cut, use the
sawblade (8) . Position the sawblade as close to the
bottom of the branch as possible. Place the sawblade
shoe (9) against the branch. Turn the hedge trimmer on as
described above, allowing the tool to work at its own pace
until the branch is fully cut.
The cutting blades are made from high quality, hardened steel
and with normal usage, they will not require resharpening.
However, if you accidentally hit a wire fence (Fig. L), stones,
glass or other hard objects, you may put a nick in the blade.
There is no need to remove this nick as long as it does not in-
terfere with the movement of the blade. If it does interfere, un-
plug the cord and use a ne toothed le or sharpening stone
to remove the nick. If you drop the trimmer, carefully inspect it
for damage. If the blade is bent, housing cracked, or handles
broken or if you see any other condition that may affect the
trimmer’s operation contact your local BLACK+DECKER
Service Center for repairs before putting it back into use.
