Start-up
•
Insert the battery (12) into the housing of the shear body.
•
Switch the shear on using the ON-OFF button (5).
•
Pull the trigger twice. The blades of the shear will open automatically. In case of failure, the blades will not open, put the
product away and contact an Authorised Service Centre.
•
Normal pruning: press the trigger to close the blades and release it to reopen them.
•
Blade closed position: hold down the trigger, 3 prolonged beeps indicate that the shear is in the stop position.
•
Before use, to check the proper functioning of the shear, press and release the trigger without cutting to close and open
the blades. Repeat the operation several times.
•
The shear has two blade openings: 100% and 70%. To switch from one opening to another, hold the trigger down until
an acoustic signal is emitted. Release the trigger and work normally.
CAUTION!
Never work on trees or ladders, since it is extremely dangerous.
Before starting any task with the tool, wear protective clothes.
4.2
Charging the battery pack
Connect the battery (12) to the charger (7) and the latter's plug to the power socket; do not use any extension cords
because they are potential sources of electrical hazards. The LED light of the battery charger lights up red during charging
and turns green when the battery is fully charged.
CAUTION!
If the shear is not used for long periods, it is recommended to charge the battery every 3 months, so as not to
impair its life.
CAUTION!
Use only the battery charger supplied with the shear. Using one with different specifications may cause fires.
