2. Do not attempt to use a step-up transformer, an engine generator or DC power receptacle.
3. Do not allow anything to cover or clog the charger vents.
4. Always cover the battery terminals with the battery cover when the battery cartridge is not used.
5. Do not short the battery cartridge:
(1) Do not touch the terminals with any conductive material.
(2) Avoid storing battery cartridge in a container with other metal objects such as nails, coins, etc.
(3) Do not expose battery cartridge to water or rain. A battery short can cause a large current flow, overheating, possible
burns and even a breakdown.
6. Do not store the tool and Battery Cartridge in locations where the temperature may reach or exceed 50°C (122°F).
7. Do not incinerate the Battery Cartridge even if it is severely damaged or is completely worn out. The battery cartridge can
explode in a fire.
8. Be careful not to drop, shake or strike battery.
9. Do not charge inside a box or container of any kind. The battery must be placed in a well ventilated area during charging.
3 Putting into operation
3.1 Controls and Operating Notes
There are dangers inherent in the improper use of electrical equipment, especially stockbreeding equipment! Before taking
the machine into use, you should observe the following accident-prevention measures:
The mains voltage must be the same as that show on the nameplate. The charger may only be connected to an AC
supply.
Avoid all contact with the moving shearing blades.
Even when the machine is switched off, do not handle the area of the shearing blades as long as the machine is
connected to a battery cartridge. Always disconnect the power supply before corking on the shearing blades/shearing
head.
Avoid touching any machine which is in contact with any liquids. Never shear wet animals. Any liquid which has got
into the machine will lower the electrical insulation. There is then the danger of an electric shock or short circuit. Only
clean the machine when dry using a brush or the cleaning brush provided.
An electric cable lying loose on the ground for any distance can distance can snag and become a source of danger.
Before starting to charging, lay the cable out carefully and safely. Avoid any kinds in the power cable and prevent it
becoming entangled. Animals must not stand on or walk across the power cable or caught in it. Never wrap the power
cable around the machine and keep it away from hot surfaces and objects, This may result in breaks and damage to the
insulation. The cable should be regularly checked for damage.
Switch the machine to OFF (
Figure 2
) before replace the battery cartridge.
Wear suitable work clothes. Do not wear any loose fitting clothing or items of jewellery which could get caught up in
moving machine parts. We would recommend in the strongest terms that protective goggles and ear protectors are worn.
Never insert any object into any of machine’s apertures.
Noise from the machine can worry animals. Considerable injury can be caused as a result of being kicked by an animal
or being crushed by its body weight .Tether the animal securely, approach it from in front and switch the machine on
within the animals’ range of vision.
Animals should only be clipped if unauthorized persons have been excluded from the clipping area.
Only clip in well-ventilated spaces (dust) and never near objects or gases likely to explode.
Danger of blockage! The machine must not be operated unless the blades are fitted.
These safety notes must be complied with in all cases .It is recommended that a fault current safety plug always be used
when working with electrical equipment.
3.2 setting the clipper blades with the Adjusting screw
Before putting into operation, make adjustment as follows:
