English (Original Instructions)

 

„

Use  only  the  manufacturer’s  replacement  line  in  the 

cutting head. Do not use any other cutting attachment, 

for example, metal wire, rope, or the like. To install any 

other  brand  of  cutting  head  to  this  line  trimmer  can 

result in serious personal injury. 

 

„

Never operate unit without the grass deflector in place 

and in good condition. 

 

„

Maintain a firm grip on both handles while trimming. 

Keep line trimmer head below waist level.  Never cut 

with the line trimmer head over 70cm or more above 

the ground.

 

„

Store idle appliances indoors - When not in use, line 

trimmer should be stored indoors in a dry, locked place 

out of the reach of children. 

 

„

Never use blades, flailing devices, wire or rope. Unit 

is designed for line trimmer use only. Use of any other 

accessories  or  attachments  will  increase  the  risk  of 

injury. 

 

„

Inspect area to be cut. Remove objects (rocks, broken 

glass, nails, wire, string, etc.) which can be thrown or 

become entangled in cutting head. 

 

„

Keep the air vents clean and free of debris to avoid 

overheating the motor. Clean after each use. 

 

„

Stop the unit and disconnect the power source when 

not in use. Carry the unit with the motor stopped. 

 

„

Store out of the reach of children. 

 

„

Do not hang unit so that the switch trigger is depressed. 

 

„

Battery  tools  do  not  have  to  be  plugged  into  an 

electrical outlet; therefore, they are always in operating 

condition.  Be  aware  of  possible  hazards  when  not 

using your battery tool or when changing accessories. 

Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock, 

fire, or serious personal injury. 

 

„

Do  not  charge  battery  tool  in  rain,  or  damp  or  wet 

location.  Following  this  rule  will  reduce  the  risk  of 

electric shock. 

 

„

Do not use battery-operated appliance in rain. 

 

„

Remove  or  disconnect  battery  before  servicing, 

cleaning  or  removing  material  from  the  gardening 

appliance. 

 

„

Use battery only with charger listed. For use with 18V 

nickel-cadmium and lithium-ion battery packs. 

 

„

Do not dispose of the batteries in a fire. The cell may 

explode. Check with local codes for possible special 

disposal instructions. 

 

„

Do  not  open  or  mutilate  the  batteries.  Released 

electrolyte is corrosive and may cause damage to the 

eyes or skin. It may be toxic if swallowed. 

 

„

Do not place battery tools or their batteries near fire 

or  heat.  This  will  reduce  the  risk  of  explosion  and 

possibly injury. 

 

„

Batteries  can  explode  in  the  presence  of  a  source 

of  ignition,  such  as  a  pilot  light.  To  reduce  the  risk 

of  serious  personal  injury,  never  use  any  cordless 

product in the presence of open flame. An exploded 

battery can propel debris and chemicals. If exposed, 

flush with water immediately. 

 

„

Do not crush, drop or damage battery pack. Do not use 

a  battery  pack  or  charger  that  has  been  dropped  or 

received a sharp blow. A damaged battery is subject to 

explosion. Properly dispose of a dropped or damaged 

battery immediately. 

 

„

Exercise care in handling batteries in order not to short 

the  battery  with  conducting  materials  such  as  rings, 

bracelets,  and  keys.  The  battery  or  conductor  may 

overheat and cause burns. 

 

„

For best results, your battery tool should be charged 

in  a  location  where  the  temperature  is  more  than 

10°C but less than 37˚C. To reduce the risk of serious 

personal injury, do not store outside or in vehicles. 

 

„

Under  extreme  usage  or  temperature  conditions, 

battery leakage may occur. If liquid comes in contact 

with your skin, wash immediately with soap and water, 

then  neutralize  with  lemon  juice  or  vinegar.  If  liquid 

gets  into  your  eyes,  flush  them  with  clean  water  for 

at  least  10  minutes,  then  seek  immediate  medical 

attention.  Following  this  rule  will  reduce  the  risk  of 

serious personal injury. 

 

„

Save these instructions. Refer to them frequently and 

use them to instruct others who may use this power 

tool. If you loan someone this power tool, loan them
