General Power Tool Safety Warnings
WARNING Read all safety warnings, instruc-
tions, illustrations and specifica-
tions provided with this power tool. Failure to follow all in-
structions listed below may result in electric shock, fire 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 (cord-
less) power tool.
Work area safety
uKeep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark
areas invite accidents.
uDo not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres,
such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or
dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust
or fumes.
uKeep children and bystanders away while operating a
power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
Electrical safety
uPower tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify
the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with
earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and
matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
uAvoid body contact with earthed or grounded sur-
faces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerat-
ors. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your
body is earthed or grounded.
uDo not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.
Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of elec-
tric shock.
uDo not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carry-
ing, 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.
uWhen operating a power tool outdoors, use an exten-
sion cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suit-
able for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
uIf operating a power tool in a damp location is un-
avoidable, use a residual current device (RCD) protec-

4 | English
ted supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric
shock.
Personal safety
uStay 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 influence
of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inatten-
tion while operating power tools may result in serious per-
sonal injury.
uUse personal protective equipment. Always wear eye
protection. Protective equipment such as a dust mask,
non-skid safety shoes, hard hat or hearing protection
used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal in-
juries.
uPrevent 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 finger on the switch or en-
ergising power tools that have the switch on invites acci-
dents.
uRemove any adjusting key or wrench before turning
the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a
rotating part of the power tool may result in personal in-
jury.
uDo not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at
all times. This enables better control of the power tool in
unexpected situations.
uDress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jew-
ellery. Keep your hair and clothing away from moving
parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught
in moving parts.
uIf devices are provided for the connection of dust ex-
traction and collection facilities, ensure these are con-
nected and properly used. Use of dust collection can re-
duce dust-related hazards.
uDo not let familiarity gained from frequent use of tools
allow you to become complacent and ignore tool
safety principles. A careless action can cause severe in-
jury within a fraction of a second.
Power tool use and care
uDo 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 de-
signed.
uDo 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.
uDisconnect the plug from the power source and/or re-
move the battery pack, if detachable, from the power
tool before making any adjustments, changing ac-
cessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive
safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool
accidentally.
uStore 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.
uMaintain power tools and accessories. Check for mis-
alignment 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.
uKeep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly main-
tained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less
likely to bind and are easier to control.
uUse the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in
accordance with these instructions, taking into ac-
count the working conditions and the work to be per-
formed. Use of the power tool for operations different
from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
uKeep 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.
Battery tool use and care
uRecharge only with the charger specified by the manu-
facturer. A charger that is suitable for one type of bat-
tery pack may create a risk of fire when used with another
battery pack.
uUse power tools only with specifically designated bat-
tery packs. Use of any other battery packs may create a
risk of injury and fire.
uWhen 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.
uUnder abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from
the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally oc-
curs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, addi-
tionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the bat-
tery may cause irritation or burns.
uDo 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.
uDo not expose a battery pack or tool to fire or excess-
ive temperature. Exposure to fire or temperature above
130°C may cause explosion.
uFollow 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.
Service
uHave 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.

uNever service damaged battery packs. Service of bat-
tery packs should only be performed by the manufacturer
or authorized service providers.
Lawnmower safety warnings
uDo not use the lawnmower in bad weather conditions,
especially when there is a risk of lightning. This de-
creases the risk of being struck by lightning.
uThoroughly inspect the area for wildlife where the
lawnmower is to be used. Wildlife may be injured by the
lawnmower during operation.
uThoroughly inspect the area where the lawnmower is
to be used and remove all stones, sticks, wires, bones,
and other foreign objects. Thrown objects can cause
personal injury.
uBefore using the lawnmower, always visually inspect
to see that the blade and the blade assembly are not
worn or damaged. Worn or damaged parts increase the
risk of injury.
uCheck the grass catcher frequently for wear or deteri-
oration. A worn or damaged grass catcher may increase
the risk of personal injury.
uKeep guards in place. Guards must be in working or-
der and be properly mounted. A guard that is loose,
damaged, or is not functioning correctly may result in per-
sonal injury.
uKeep all cooling air inlets clear of debris. Blocked air
inlets and debris may result in overheating or risk of fire.
uWhile operating the lawnmower, always wear non-slip
and protective footwear. Do not operate the lawn-
mower when barefoot or wearing open sandals. This
reduces the chance of injury to the feet from contact with
the moving blade.
uWhile operating the lawnmower, always wear long
trousers. Exposed skin increases the likelihood of injury
from thrown objects.
uDo not operate the lawnmower in wet grass. Walk,
never run. This reduces the risk of slipping and falling
which may result in personal injury.
uDo not operate the lawnmower on excessively steep
slopes. This reduces the risk of loss of control, slipping
and falling which may result in personal injury.
uWhen working on slopes, always be sure of your foot-
ing, always work across the face of slopes, never up or
down and exercise extreme caution when changing
direction. This reduces the risk of loss of control, slipping
and falling which may result in personal injury.
uUse extreme caution when reversing or pulling the
lawnmower towards you. Always be aware of your sur-
roundings. This reduces the risk of tripping during opera-
tion.
uDo not touch blades and other hazardous moving parts
while they are still in motion. This reduces the risk of in-
jury from moving parts.
uWhen clearing jammed material or cleaning the lawn-
mower, make sure all power switches are off and the
battery pack is disconnected. Unexpected operation of
the lawnmower may result in serious personal injury.
uAlways allow the product to cool down before storing.
uEmpty the grassbox before storing.
uWhen adjusting the machine, make sure not to pinch your
fingers between the moving blades and fixed parts of the
machine.
Operation
uWe would advise you to wear ear protection for your own
convenience.
uWait until the blades stop if the machine has to be tilted
for transportation when crossing surfaces other than
grass and when transporting the machine to and from the
area to be mowed.
uDo not tilt the machine when starting or switching on the
motor.
uSwitch on the motor according to the instructions with
feet well away from rotating parts.

Inserting/removing both batteries (see figuresF
andH)
uThis machine is designed to only run with 2 batteries
and will also not function if one of the batteries is
completely discharged. Always use batteries with the
same charge level and never combine full and part-
charged batteries as the run time will always be dic-
tated by the least charged battery.
Note: Using unsuitable batteries can lead to malfunctions or
damage the machine.
Insert the charged batteries. Ensure that the batteries are
fully inserted.
To remove the batteries from the machine, press the battery
unlocking button and pull the batteries out.
Working Advice
Cutting Capacity (Battery Operating Duration)
The cutting capacity (battery operating duration) depends
on lawn properties, such as grass density, moisture content,
grass length and height of cut.
Switching the machine on and off frequently during cutting
will also reduce the cutting capacity (battery operating dura-
tion).
To improve the cutting capacity (battery operating dura-
tion), it is recommended to cut more frequently, increase
the cutting height and walk at an appropriate pace.
The example below shows the connection between cutting
height and cutting capacity with regard to two batteries.
Cutting Conditions
6cm
4cm
Very thin, dry grass
Cutting capacity
2 x 4.0Ah batteries up to 500m2
2 x 6.0Ah batteries up to 650m2
To increase the run time an additional battery can be pur-
chased from an authorised customer service agent for Bosch
garden products.
