INTENDED USE
This cordless hedge trimmer is designed for the cutting and trimming of hedges, bushes and
ornamental shrubs in the domestic environment.
For safety reasons it is essential to read this entire instruction manual before initial operation
and to observe all the instructions inside.
This product is intended for private domestic use only, not for commercial trade use. It must
not be used for any purposes other than those described.
GENERAL SAFETY WARNINGS
WARNING: Read all safety directions and
instructions.
Omissions in the compliance with safety directions
and instructions can cause electrical shock, re
and/or severe injuries.
Retain all safety directions and instructions for
future use.
The term “Power Tools” used in the safety
instructions refers to mains-operated power tools
(with power cord) and to battery operated power
tools (without power cord).
Work area safety
a). Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark
areas increase the chances of accidents.
b). Do not operate power tools in explosive
atmospheres, in the presence of ammable Iiquids,
gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may
ignite the dust or fumes.
c). Keep children and bystanders away while
operating a power tool. Distractions can cause
momentary loss of control.
6
GENERAL SAFETY WARNINGS
Electrical safety
a). Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never
modify the plug in any way. Do not use any
adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools.
Unmodied plugs and matching outlets will reduce
risk of electric shock.
b). 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.
c). Do not expose power tools to rain or wet
conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase
the risk of electric shock.
d). Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for
carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep
cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving
parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk
of electric shock.
e). When operating a power tool outdoors, use an
extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of
a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of
electric shock.
f). 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
a). Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use
common sense when operating a power tool. Do
7
GENERAL SAFETY WARNINGS
not use a power tool while you are tired or under the
inuence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment
of inattention while operating power tools may result
in serious personal injury.
b). Use personal protective equipment. Always wear
eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust
masks, nonskid safety shoes, hard hats, and hearing
protection can reduce personal injury.
c). 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 nger on the switch or
energizing power tools that have the switch on invites
accidents.
d). 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.
e). Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance
at all times. This enables better control of the power
tool in unexpected situations.
f). 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.
g). If devices are provided for the connection of dust
extraction and collection facilities, ensure these
are connected and properly used. The use of dust
collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
8
GENERAL SAFETY WARNINGS
Power tool use and care
a). Do not use excessive force while using the
power tool. Use the correct power tool for your
application. The correct power tool will do the job
better and more safely at the rate for which it was
