Operation
❐
Keep all body parts away from the cutting blades. Do not attempt
to remove cuttings or take hold of the material being cut when
the blades are rotating. Only remove cuttings that have accu-
mulated in the device after you have deactivated the device and
disconnected the plug from the socket. Wear work gloves when
doing so!
❐
Carry the hedge trimmer by the handle when the blades are not
moving.
❐
Attention! This device generates noise up to 98 dB (A). For this
reason, you should wear adequate ear protection!
❐
For your safety wear a mask.
❐
This device runs with an integrated (electrical) motor brake for your convenience
and safety. It ensures that the cutting unit immediately stops when the switches are
released.
1. Connect the power plug to an easily accessible socket using an extension cord. The socket
must correspond to the device’s technical data.
If the collection accessories have been connected properly, the operating light will turn on.
2. In order to activate the device, push the safety lock forward (this will release the main switch
1) and depress the switches 1 and 2. After you have pressed switch 1, you can release the
safety lock.
However, as soon as you release one of the switches, the device will deactivate.
3. Move the device evenly over the hedge and back and forth along its sides until you have
shaped the hedge as desired.
4. From time to time, shake any waste located in the hose down into the collection bag. Only in
this way is it possible to work without the cuttings causing a blockage.
5. After use, remove the collecting bin and/or collection system and empty them. Remove any
cuttings jammed in the device.
6. Stow the device and accessories in a place, which is not accessible for children, which is kept
locked, and is dry.
