or young persons under 18 years of age. Young
persons over 16 years of age may be exempted
from this restriction if they are undergoing training
under the supervision of an expert.
7. Use the hedge trimmer only if you are in good
physical condition. If you are tired, your attention
will be reduced. Be especially careful at the end
of a working day. Perform all work calmly and
carefully. The user is responsible for all damages
to third parties.
8. Never use the trimmer when under the influence
of alcohol, drugs or medication.
9. Work gloves of stout leather are part of the basic
equipment of the hedge trimmer and must always
be worn when working with it. Also wear sturdy
shoes with anti-skid soles.
10. Before starting work check to make sure that the

location, including during work, always remove
the battery cartridge and put the blade cover on
the cutter blades. Never carry or transport the
trimmer with the cutter running. Never grasp the
cutter with your hands.
18. Clean the hedge trimmer and especially the cutter
after use, and before putting the trimmer into
storage for extended periods. Lightly oil the cutter
and put on the cover. The cover supplied with the
unit can be hung on the wall, providing a safe and
practical way to store the hedge trimmer.
19. Store the hedge trimmer with the cover on, in a
dry room. Keep it out of reach of children. Never
store the trimmer outdoors.
