WARNING!
Risk of electric shock and injury!
If you damage or even sever the extension cord with the hedge
trimmer, it will probably short-circuit, and there may even be a
bang and a few sparks.
− Do not be frightened! Keep hold of the hedge trimmer but
release the switch on the handle.
− Wait until the double cutter comes to a standstill.
− Do not touch the extension cord or blade! Put the hedge trim-
mer down and immediately disconnect the mains plug from
the mains socket.
− Only then should you assess the damage.
− Never “mend” a damaged extension cord. Either replace it or
have it replaced by a specialist.
WARNING!
Risk of injury!
The double cutter will continue to run for a short period of time!
− Hold the hedge trimmer securely until the double cutter
comes to a standstill.
