loose clothing or jewellery. Keep hair, clo-
thes and gloves away from moving parts.
Loose clothing, jewellery or long hair can get

vices can be fitted, make sure that these
are correctly attached and correctly used.

ce the danger posed by dust.
4. Usage and treatment of the electric tool
a) Do not overload the appliance. Use the
correct tool for your work. You will be able
to work better and more safely within the gi-
ven performance boundaries.
b) Do not use an electric tool with a defec-
tive switch. An electric tool that cannot be
switched on or offis dangerous and must be
repaired.
c) Pull the plug out of the socket and/or
remove the battery before making any
adjustments to the appliance, changing
accessories or putting the appliance
down. This safety measure prevents starting
the electric tool unintentionally.
d) Keep unused electric tools out of the
reach of children. Do not allow people
who are not familiar with the appliance or
who have not read these instructions to
use the appliance. Electric tools are dange-
rous if they are used by inexperienced people.
e) Clean your electric tool carefully. Check
whether moving parts are functioning
properly and not jamming, whether parts
are broken or damaged enough that the
functioning of this electric tool is affec-
ted. Have damaged parts repaired before
using the appliance. Many accidents are
caused by badly maintained electric tools.
f) Keep your cutting tools sharp and clean.
Carefully maintained cutting tools with sharp
cutting edges will jam less and are easier to
control.
g) Make sure to use electric tools, accesso-
ries, attachments, etc. in accordance with
these instructions. Take the conditions in
your work area and the job in hand into
account. Using electric tools for any purpose
other than the one for which they are intended
can lead to dangerous situations.
5. Using and handling the cordless tool
a) Only charge the batteries in chargers that
are recommended by the manufacturer.
A charger that is designed for a certain type
of battery may pose a fire risk if it is used with
other types of battery.
b) Use only the correct batteries in the elec-
tric tools. The use of other batteries may
result in injuries and a fire risk.
c) Keep unused batteries away from paper
clips, coins, keys, nails, screws and other
metallic objects that could cause a short
circuit between the contacts. A short cir-
cuit between the battery contacts may cause
burns or a fire.
d) In case of incorrect use, fluid may escape
from the battery. Avoid contact with it. If
you touch it by accident, rinse the affec-
ted area with water. If you get the fluid
in your eyes, also seek medical advice.
Leaking battery fluid can cause skin irritation
or burns.
6. Service
a) Have your electric tool repaired only by
trained personnel using only genuine
spare parts.This will ensure that your elec-
tric tool remains safe to use.
Safety information for hedge trimmers:
• Make sure you keep all parts of your body
away from the blades. Never attempt to
remove cuttings with the blade running or
to hold material you want to cut. Always
switch off the equipment before attempt-
ing to remove any jammed cuttings. A sin-
gle moment of carelessness when using the
hedge trimmer can result in serious injuries.
• Carry the hedge trimmer by its handle
and make sure the blades have stopped.
Always fit the protective cover when
transporting the hedge trimmer or put-
ting it into storage. Careful handling of the
equipment reduces the likelihood of injury by
the blades.
• Hold the power tool only by the insulated
handles because the blade may strike
concealed power cables. Contact between
the blade and a live cable can make the me-
tal parts of the equipment live and cause an
electric shock.
