hazards occurring to other people or their
property.

12. Never operate the tool when tired, feeling ill or
under the influence of alcohol or drugs.

13. The tool should be switched off immediately if it
shows any signs of unusual operation.

Intended use of the tool

1. Use right tool. The cordless grass trimmer is only
intended for cutting grass, light weeds. It should
not be used for any other purpose such as hedge
cutting as this may cause injury.

Personal protective equipment (Fig. 1 & 2)

1. Dress properly. The clothing worn should be
functional and appropriate, i.e. it should be tight­fitting but not cause hindrance. Do not wear either
jewelry or clothing which could become entangled
with high grass. Wear protective hair covering to
contain long hair.

2. When using the tool, always wear sturdy shoes
with a non-slip sole. This protects against injuries
and ensures a good footing.

3. Wear protective glasses or goggles.

Electrical and battery safety

1. Avoid dangerous environment. Don’t use the tool
in damp or wet locations or expose it to rain.
Water entering the tool will increase the risk of
electric shock.

2. Recharge only with the charger specified by the
manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one
type of battery pack may create a risk of fire when
used with another battery pack.

3. Use power tools only with specifically designated
battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may
create a risk of injury and fire.

4. When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from
other metal objects, like paper clips, coins, keys,
nails, screws or other small metal objects, that can
make a connection from one terminal to another.
Shorting the battery terminals together may cause
burns or a fire.

5. Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from
the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally
occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, seek
medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may
cause irritation or burns.

6. Do not dispose of the battery(ies) in a fire. The cell

may explode. Check with local codes for possible
special disposal instructions.

7. Do not open or mutilate the battery(ies). Released
electrolyte is corrosive and may cause damage to
the eyes or skin. It may be toxic if swallowed.
