RULES FOR SAFE OPERATION
WARNING
Read all safety
instructions. Failure to follow the warnings
and instructions may result in electric
shock, fire and/or serious injury.
INTENDED USE
This hedge trimmer is intended for cutting and
trimming hedges and bushes in domestic use.
It is not intended to be used for cutting above
shoulder level.
„ Save all warnings and instructions for
future reference. The term "power tool"
in the warnings refers to your battery-
operated (cordless) power tool.
WORK AREA SAFETY
„ Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered
or dark areas invite accidents.
„ Do 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.
„ Keep children and bystanders away while
operating a power tool. Distractions can
cause you to lose control.

ELECTRICAL SAFETY

„ Do not expose power tools to rain or wet
conditions. Water entering a power tool will
increase the risk of electric shock.
„ Avoid body contact with earthed or
grounded surfaces
radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There

is an increased risk of electric shock if your
body is earthed or grounded.
„ If operating a power tool in a damp location
is unavoidable, use a residual current
device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an
RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.

PERSONAL SAFETY

„ Stay alert, watch what you are doing and
use common sense when operating a
all
power tool. Do not use a power tool while
you are tired or under the influence of
drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment

equipment such as dust mask, gloves,
non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing
protection used for appropriate conditions
will reduce personal injuries.
„ Prevent 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 energizing power tools that
have the switch on invites accidents.
„ Remove 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
injury.
„ Do not over-reach. Keep proper footing and
balance at all times. This enables better
control of the power tool in unexpected
situations.
„ Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing
or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and
gloves away from moving parts. Loose
clothes, jewellery or long hair can be
caught in moving parts.
„ If devices are provided for the connection
