■
Wear heavy, long trousers, boots, and gloves. Do not wear loose-fitting
clothing, short trousers, or jewellery of any kind, and do not use the
product with bare feet.
■
Secure long hair so that it is above shoulder level to prevent entanglement
in moving parts.
■
Before use and after any impact, check that there are no damaged parts
on the product. A defective switch or any part that is damaged or worn
should be properly repaired or replaced by an authorised service centre.
■
Make sure that the cutting attachment is properly installed and securely
fastened.
■
Never operate the product unless all guards, deflectors, and handles are
properly and securely attached.
■
Consider the environment in which you are working. Keep the working
area free from wires, sticks, stones, and debris, which if struck by the
cutter can become thrown objects.
BATTERY TOOL USE AND CARE
■
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.
■
Use power tools only with specifically designated battery packs. Use of
any other battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.
■
When the battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects,
like paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws, or other small metal objects that
can make a connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery
terminals together may cause burns or a fire.
■
Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid
contact. If contact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts
eyes, additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may
cause irritation or burns.

■
Beware of objects thrown by the cutting means. Remove debris like
small stones, gravel, and other foreign objects from the work area before
starting operation. Wires or string may become entangled with the
cutting means.
■

whenever leaving the product unattended
TRANSPORTING LITHIUM BATTERIES
Transport the battery pack in accordance with local and national provisions
and regulations. Follow all special requirements on packaging and labelling
when transporting batteries by a third party.
Ensure that no batteries can come in contact with other batteries or conductive
materials while in transport by protecting exposed connectors with insulating,
non-conductive caps or tape. Do not transport batteries that are cracked or
leaking. Check with the forwarding company for further advice.
MAINTENANCE
WARNING! Use only original manufacturer’s replacement parts,
accessories, and attachments. Failure to do so can cause possible injury,
can contribute to poor performance, and may void your warranty.

RESIDUAL RISKS
E
ven when the product is used as prescribed, it is still impossible to completely
eliminate certain residual risk factors. The following hazards may arise during
use, and the operator should pay special attention to avoid the following:
■
injury caused by vibration
–
Hold the product by the designated handles, and restrict working
time and exposure.
■
injury caused by exposure to noise
–
Wear hearing protection, and limit exposure.
■
injury caused by flying debris
–
Wear eye protection at all times.
RISK REDUCTION
It has been reported that vibrations from handheld tools may contribute
to a condition called Raynaud’s Syndrome. Symptoms may include tingling,
numbness, and blanching of the fingers, usually apparent upon exposure to
cold. Hereditary factors, exposure to cold and dampness, diet, smoking, and
work practices are all thought to contribute to the development of these
symptoms. There are measures that can be taken by the operator to possibly
reduce the effects of vibration:
■
Keep your body warm in cold weather. When operating the product, wear
gloves to keep the hands and wrists warm. It is reported that cold weather
is a major factor contributing to Raynaud’s Syndrome.
■
After each period of operation, exercise to increase blood circulation.
■
Take frequent work breaks. Limit the amount of exposure per day.
If you experience any of the symptoms of this condition, immediately
discontinue use and see your physician.
●
whenever performing maintenance
●
whenever the product starts to vibrate abnormally
■
Wear full eye and hearing protection while operating the product. If
working in an area where there is a risk of falling objects, head protection
must be worn.
■
The use of hearing protection may restrict the operator’s ability to hear
warning sounds. Pay particular attention to potential hazards around and
inside the working area.
■
Wear heavy, long trousers, boots, and gloves. Do not wear loose-fitting
clothing, short trousers, or jewellery of any kind, and do not use the
product with bare feet.
■
Secure long hair so that it is above shoulder level to prevent entanglement
in moving parts.
■
The small blade fitted to the lawn guard is designed to trim the new
extended line to the correct length for safe and optimum performance.
It is very sharp. Do not touch the blade, particularly when cleaning the
product.
■
Always ensure that ventilation openings are kept clear of debris.
■
Before use and after any impact, check that there are no damaged parts
on the product. A defective switch or any part that is damaged or worn
should be properly repaired or replaced by an authorised service centre.
■
Make sure that the cutting head attachment is properly installed and
securely fastened.
■
Make sure that all guards, deflectors, and handles are properly and
securely attached.
■
Do not modify the product in any way. This may increase the risk of injury
to yourself or others.
■
Use only the manufacturer’s replacement cutting line. Do not use any
other cutting attachment.
■
Immediately turn off the product and remove the battery pack in the
event of accident or breakdown. Do not operate the product again until it
has been fully checked by an authorised service centre.
■
Do not dispose of used battery packs in the household refuse or by
burning them. AEG distributors offer to retrieve old batteries to protect
our environment.
■
Do not store the battery pack together with metal objects (short circuit
risk).
■
Battery acid may leak from damaged batteries under extreme load or
extreme temperatures. In case of contact with battery acid, wash it off
immediately with soap and water. In case of eye contact, rinse thoroughly
for at least 10 minutes and immediately seek medical attention.
WARNING! Ensure that the line cut-off blade in the guard is properly
positioned and secured before each use.
WARNING! Make sure to assemble the two-piece guard correctly
before use.
ADDITIONAL BATTERY SAFETY WARNINGS
WARNING! To reduce the risk of fire, personal injury, and product
damage due to a short circuit, never immerse your tool, battery pack, or
charger in fluid or allow fluid to flow inside them. Corrosive or conductive
fluids, such as seawater, certain industrial chemicals, and bleach or
bleach-containing products, etc., can cause a short circuit.
