6. Power supply
The hedge trimmer is designed for use only with
single-phase alternating current from a 230V 50Hz
AC supply. It is totally insulated, enabling it to be
connected also to socket-outlets without a PE con-
ductor. Before you use the hedge trimmer for the first
time, check that your mains voltage is the same as
the operating voltage specified on the machine’s
rating plate.
7. Startup and operation
Caution! This hedge trimmer is designed to cut hed-
ges, bushes and shrubs. Any other use which is not
expressly permitted in these instructions may cause
damage to the hedge trimmer and place the user at
serious risk. Your hedge trimmer is equipped with a
two-hand safety circuit. This means that it works only
when the switch button on the guide handle (Figure 1
/ Item 3) is pressed with the one hand while the
switch on the handle (Figure 1 / Item 4) is being pres-
sed with the other hand. If you let go of either swit-
ching element, the blades will stop moving.
The blades take time to slow down to a standstill.
Please make allowance.
-
Check that the blades are working properly. High
cutting performance and smooth operation are
guaranteed by the counter-rotating, dual-edge
blades.
-
Fasten the extension cable in the corresponding
cable holder (see Figure 4) each time before you
use the hedge trimmer.
