Attention!
If you find out that safety functions, such as
the 2-switch mechanism or the safety stop, are
not functioning while working with the hedge
shears, immediately cease working and take
the machine to a specialised shop for repairing.
Two-hand safety switch (Fig. 3)
To switch on the hedge trimmer one of the switch bars
on the hand grip (A or B) and the switch on the bow-type
handle (C) must be held down. If one of the switches
is released, the shearing blades will stop after ca. 0.2
seconds.
Quick blade stop
In order to avoid injuries through cuts, the blade will
stop in max. 0.2 sec. when one of the two switches is
released.
Blade safety rail (Fig. 4)
The cutting blade set back from the blade housing
reduces the risk of injuries due to unintentional body
contact. As soon as the hedge trimmer is switched off,
the sharp cutting blades will stop - due to safety reasons
- exactly under the cover rail in order to reduce the risk of
injuries during transport.
Impact protector (Fig. 9)
The extended guide rail prevents unpleasant shocks
(blade recoil) being transmitted to the operator due to
impact with solid objects (wall, ground etc.).
Gear protection feature
If solid objecst are caught in the cutting blade and jam
the motor, switch off the machine at once, disconnect the
power plug from the power socket, remove the object and
continue with the work.
The equipment is also fitted with an overload cutout,
which protects the gears against mechanical damage in
the event of blade jams.
11. Storing the trimmer after use
The hedge shears must be stored such that there is
no danger of injuries being caused to persons by the
cutting blades!
Important note: The shearing blades should be cleaned
after each use.(see also Section 8. Maintenance).This will
considerably increase the service life of the device. Please
use a lubricator that is not harmful to the environ-ment , e.
g. our service spray. Then put the shears in their case with
the cutting blades first.
12. Repair service
Repairs to electric power tools should only be carried out
by specialist electrical personnnel.
13. Waste disposal and environmental
protection
If your device should become useless somewhere in the
future or you do not need it any longer, do not dispose
of the device together with your domestic refuse, but
dispose of it in an environmentally friendly manner.
Please dispose of the device itself at an according
collecting/recycling point. By doing so, plastic and
metal parts can be separated and recycled. Information
concerning the disposal of materials and devices are
available from your local administration.
