7 HEDGE TRIMMERS SAFETY WARNINGS
a)
Keep all parts of the body away from
the cutter blade. Do not remove cut ma-
terial or hold material to be cut when
blades are moving. Make sure the
switch is off when clearing jammed
material.
A moment of inattention while
operating the hedge trimmer may result in
serious personal injury.
b)
Carry the hedge trimmer by the handle
with the cutter blade stopped. When
transporting or storing the hedge trim-
mer always fit the cutting device cover.
Proper handling of the hedge trimmer will
reduce possible personal injury from the
cutter blades.
c)
Hold the power tool by insulated grip-
ping surfaces only, because the cutter
blade may contact hidden wiring.
Cut-
ter blades contacting a “live” wire may
make exposed metal parts of the power
tool “live” and could give the operator an
electric shock.
d)
Keep cable away from cutting area.
During operation cable may be hidden in
shrubs and can be accidentally cut by the
blade.
e)
Hold the hedge trimmer firmly with both
hands!

10 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR
BATTERY
1.
Never use a damaged battery.
2.
Do not open the battery. There is a
risk of a short-circuit.
3.
Protect the battery from heat, e.g.
from continuous exposure to sun-
light, fire, water and humidity. There
is a risk of explosion.
4.
In case of damage and improper
use of the battery, vapours may be
emitted. Ventilate the area and seek
medical help in case of complaints.
The vapours can irritate the respira-
tory system.
5.
Under abusive conditions, liquid
may be ejected from the battery;
avoid contact. If contact acciden-

medical help. Liquid ejected from
the battery may cause irritation or
burns.
6.
Use only original batteries with the
voltage indicated on the rating plate
of your electric power tool. If other
batteries are used, e.g. imitations,
reconditioned batteries or third-
party products, there is a risk of
injuries as well as damage caused
by exploding batteries.
7.
The battery voltage must match the
battery charging voltage of the bat-
tery charger. Otherwise there is a
risk of fire and explosion.
8.
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.
9.
Pointed objects, such as nails or
screwdrivers, or external forces
may damage the battery. This may
cause an internal short-circuit and
the battery to burn, smoke, explode
or overheat.
10.
When not in use, keep the battery
away from paper-clips, coins, keys,
nails, screws, or other small metal
objects, that can cause a short-cir-
