General power tool safety warnings
WARNING: Read all safety warnings, instruc-
tions, illustrations and specications provided
with this power tool.Failuretofollowallinstructions
listedbelowmayresultinelectricshock,reand/or
seriousinjury.
Save all warnings and instruc-
tions for future reference.
Theterm"powertool"inthewarningsreferstoyour
mains-operated(corded)powertoolorbattery-operated
(cordless) power tool.
Cordless Hedge Trimmer Safety Warnings
1. 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o󰀨.A
moment of inattention while operating the hedge
trimmermayresultinseriouspersonalinjury.
2. 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 start-
ingandresultantpersonalinjuryfromtheblades.
3. When transporting or storing the hedge trim-
mer, always t the blade cover.Properhandling
of the hedge trimmer will decrease the risk of
personalinjuryfromtheblades.
4. When clearing jammed material or servicing
the unit, make sure all power switches are o󰀨
and the battery pack is removed or discon-
nected. Unexpected actuation of the hedge trim-
merwhileclearingjammedmaterialorservicing
mayresultinseriouspersonalinjury.
5. 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trim-
mer "live" and could give the operator an electric
shock.

9ENGLISH
6. Keep all power cords and cables away from
cutting area.Powercordsorcablesmaybehid-
deninhedgesorbushesandcanbeaccidentally
cutbytheblade.
7. 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.
Additional Safety Instructions
Preparation
1. Check the hedges and bushes for foreign
objects, such as wire fences or hidden wiring
before operating the tool.
2. The tool must not be used by children 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.
3. First-time users should have an experienced
user show them how to use the tool.
4.
Use the tool 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work-
ingday.Performallworkcalmlyandcarefully.The
userisresponsibleforalldamagestothirdparties.
5. Never use the tool when under the inuence of
alcohol, drugs or medication.
6. Work gloves of stout leather are part of the
basic equipment of the tool and must always
be worn when working with it. Also wear
sturdy shoes with anti-skid soles.
7. Before starting work check to make sure that
the tool is in good and safe working order.
Ensure guards are tted properly. The tool
must not be used unless fully assembled.
Operation

using the tool.
2. The tool is intended to be used by the operator
at ground level. Do not use the tool on ladders
or any other unstable support.
3. DANGER - Keep hands away from blade.
Contactwithbladewillresultinseriouspersonal
injury.
4. Do not use the tool in the rain or in wet or
very damp conditions. The electric motor is not
waterproof.
5. Make sure you have a secure footing before
starting operation.
6. Do not operate the tool at no-load
unnecessarily.
7. Immediately switch o󰀨 the tool and remove the
battery cartridge if the shear blades should
come into contact with a fence or other hard
object. Check the blades for damage, and if
damaged, replace the blades immediately.
8. Before checking the shear blades, taking care
of faults, or removing material caught in the
shear blades, always switch o󰀨 the tool and
remove the battery cartridge.
9. Never point the shear blades to yourself or
others.
10. If the blades stop moving due to the stuck of
foreign objects between the blades during
operation, switch o󰀨 the tool and remove the
battery cartridge, and then remove the foreign
objects using tools such as pliers. Removing
theforeignobjectsbyhandmaycauseaninjury
forthereasonthatthebladesmaymoveinreac-
tiontoremovingtheforeignobjects.
11. Avoid dangerous environment. Don't use the
tool in damp or wet locations or expose it to

after use, and before putting the tool into stor-
age for extended periods. Lightly oil the blades
and put on the blade cover.
4. Store the tool with the blade cover on, in a dry
room. Keep it out of reach of children. Never
store the tool outdoors.
