Safety Information

Batteries (Where Present)

Batteries present a risk if they become damaged by the possible leaking of electrolyte. This electrolyte is an acid and can cause serious burn injuries. Care should be taken when working on or near them. NOTE: the electrolyte may be in a liquid or gel form.

Should you come in to contact with electrolyte you should;

• Remove all clothing contaminated with electrolyte. If you cannot remove then

saturate them in water.

• Get medical assistance as soon as possible.

You must advise the medical staff of the type of acid.

• Lead/acid battery = dilute sulphuric acid.

• Nickel/cadmium = potassium hydroxide alkali electrolyte.

• Use fresh running water to wash off excess electrolyte, continue this until medical

assistance arrives. Make sure that you do not wash the electrolyte to another part of your body or face.

• If electrolyte comes in to contact with Eyes the electrolyte needs to be

immediately washed away with large amounts of water. Make sure that you do not wash the electrolyte to another part of your face or body.

• Gasses from charging batteries are highly flammable and great care should be

taken to charge in well ventilated areas.

• There is an explosion risk if the battery terminals are short circuited, when connecting/disconnecting ALWAYS exercise great care so that the terminals or battery leads are NOT allowed to touch and cause a spark. ALWAYS use suitable insulated tools.

Safety Information

Electricity (Continued)

• Power tools plug must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. DO

NOT use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.

• DO NOT expose this power tool to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power

tool will increase the risk of electric shock. DO NOT abuse the power cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep the cord away from heat, oil and sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock. When operating a power tool, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.

• IMPORTANT: Make sure that the electric circuit is fused, and that the power,

voltage and frequency of the motor is supported by your mains supply. Also, make sure that your power supply is earthed. Connect your machine to earth. Never open the ON/OFF switchbox. However, if it should become necessary to do so, contact a qualified electrician. Make sure that you will never touch live contacts, specifically when you plug or unplug your machine. This machine and its power cord must never get into contact with water.

• Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators,

ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.

• To prevent electric shock, use only with an extension cord suitable for outdoor

use. For additional protection, the installation of a residual current device (RCD) having a rated residual operating current not exceeding 30mA is advisable.

• Before use, check that the extension cord is in good condition. When using an

extension cord, make sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating.

• Do not allow any part of the machine to make contact with water while it is in

operation. If the appliance becomes wet while turned off, wipe dry before starting. Do not touch the appliance or its plug with wet hands or while standing in water. Wearing rubber boots offers some protection.

• Before use, check the supply and extension cord for signs of damage or aging. If the cord becomes damaged during use, disconnect the cord from the supply immediately. If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or a qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.

Double-Insulated Appliances

In a double-insulated appliance, two systems of insulation are provided instead of grounding. No grounding means that it is already provided on a double-insulated appliance. Servicing a double-insulated appliance requires extreme care and knowledge of the system, and should be performed only by qualified service personnel. Replacement parts for a double-insulated appliance must be identical to the parts they replace.

Safety Information

Vibrations (Where Applicable)

• Prolonged use of hand held (operated) machines will cause the user to feel the

effects of/from vibrations. These vibrations can lead to white finger (Raynaud’s phenomenon) or carpal tunnel syndrome. This condition reduces the ability of the hand to feel and regulate temperature, causing numbness and heat sensations and may cause nerve damage and circulatory tissue death.

• Not all factors that lead to white finger disease are known, but cold weather,

smoking and other diseases that affect blood vessels and blood circulation as well as large and long-lasting impact of shocks are considered factors in the formation of white finger. Note the following to reduce the risk of white finger and carpal tunnel syndrome;

• Wear gloves and keep your hands warm.

• Take regular breaks.

• All of the above precautions may help reduce the risk of white finger disease but

not rule out the carpal tunnel syndrome. Long-term and regular users are therefore recommended to observe the condition of your hands and fingers. Seek medical attention immediately if any of the above symptoms should occur.

Noise (Where Applicable)

• The operating noise of the machine can damage your hearing. When wearing

protection such as earplugs or ear defenders to protect your hearing. Long-term and regular users are advised to have hearing checked regularly. Be especially vigilant and cautious when wearing ear protection because your ability to hear alarm warnings will be reduced.

• Noise emissions for this equipment is unavoidable. Carry out noisy work at

approved times and for certain periods. Limit the working time to a minimum. For your personal protection and protection of people working nearby it is also advisable for them to wear hearing protection.

• See Certificate of Conformity section for Outdoor Noise declaration of

. . conformity.

Residual Risks

Even when tool is used as prescribed it is not possible to eliminate all residual risk factors. The following hazards may arise in connection with the tool’s construction and design:

1. Damage to lungs if an effective dust mask is not worn.

2. Damage to hearing if effective hearing protection is not worn.

Health defects resulting from vibration emission if the power tool is being used over longer period of time or not adequately managed and properly maintained.

Operation

Cutting A Hedge

When operating the hedge trimmer, keep the extension cord behind the

trimmer. Never drape it over the hedge being trimmed.

1. Cut and remove branches exceeding the cutting capacity of this product using a proper pruner before operation.

2. Always hold the product firmly with both hands on the front handle and rear handle. Never operate this product using only one hand.

3. Do not rush and do not attempt to cut too much with one stroke of the cutting device.

4. First cut both sides from the bottom cutting upwards to the top. This will prevent any of the cuttings falling into the path of the area still to be cut. See image 1.

5. After cutting the sides proceed to the top. Try to keep the cutting device angled at approximately 15° to the cutting surface. See image 2.

Image 1 Image 2

6. When cutting wide hedges with the cutting area in sight, move the cutting blade lightly through the cutting surface in a sweeping motion, following the shape of the hedge or shrub. A slight tilt downwards of the cutting blade in the direction of motion is recommended for optimum cutting performance.

7. Cut in a number of stages if the area being cut is particularly long to achieve a better result; smaller cuttings will allow for easy composting.

NOTE: When shaping it is advisable to achieve a trapezoidal shape (See image 3). A trapezoidal cut corresponds to the natural growth of plants and results in optimal hedge growth, as it will expose more light to the lower end of the hedge.

Blade Damage

If whilst trimming you hit any wire fences, stone posts etc. damage will occur to the blades, such as nicks or gauges. If the damage does not interfere with the motion of the blades, no action is required. If there is interference, using a file or sharpening stone/block, reduce the size of the nick/gauge. If damage is unmaintainable, please contact us.
