Safety Information
Important
- Please read these instructions fully before starting assembly
General Power Tool Safety Warnings
switches are off and the battery back is removed or disconnected.
Unexpected
actuation of the hedge trimmer while clearing jammed material or servicing may
result in serious personal injury.
e) Hold the hedge trimmer by insulated gripping surfaces only, because the blade
may contact hidden wiring.
Blades contacting a “live” wire may make exposed
metal parts of the hedge trimmer “live” and could give the operator an electric
shock.
f) Keep all power cords and cables away from cutting area.
Power cords or cables
may be hidden in hedges or bushes and can be accidentally cut by the blade.
g) Do not use the hedge trimmer in bad weather conditions, especially when there
is a risk of lightning.
This decreases the risk of being struck by lightning.
h) Check the hedges and bushes for foreign objects, e.g. wire fences and hidden
wiring.
i) Hold the hedge trimmer properly, e.g. with both hands if two handles are
provided.
j) The hedge trimmer is intended to be used by the operator at ground level and not
on ladders or any other unstable support.
k) Before operating the hedge trimmer, the user should make sure the locking
device(s) of any moving elements (e.g. the extended shaft and pivoting element),
if any, are in the locked position.
