Remove plug
immediately if the
power cord is
damaged or cut
8. Blade safety rail
The cutting blade set back from rounded edge re-
ception blade reduces the risk of the injuries due to
unintentional body contact (
Fig. 5
).
9. Impact protector
The extended holder plate prevents unpleasant shocks
(blade recoil) being transmitted to the operator due to
impact with solid objects (wall, ground etc.) (
Fig. 5
).
10. Gear protection
If solid objects are caught in the cutting blade and jam
the motor, switch off the machine at once, disconnect
the plug from the power receptacle, remove the object
and continue with the work.
The equipment is also fitted with an overload cut-out,
which protects the gears against mechanical damage
in the event of blade jams.
11. Notes on blade
As the blade moves reciprocally, do not allow it to
come into contact with large trees or lumber. Doing so
will cause the tool to move backwards, presenting a
hazard and reducing the service life of the tool.
PICTOGRAM ILLUSTRATION AND EXPLANATION

Trim the corners sharp to enhance appearance. Stretch
a piece of string along the hedge and use it as a
reference to obtain uniform cutting.
