Keep this manual and refer to it frequently, in
order to ensure that safety is maintained and
to be able to instruct other possible users.
Area of use
The power tool is meant for cutting hedges.
Any other use risks damaging the power tool

responsibility in case of damage which arises
from improper use or inappropriate handling
of the power tool.

follow
t
he warnings and instructions may
result in electric shock, fire and/or serious
injury. Save all warnings and instructions for
future reference.

The term ‘power tool’ in the warnings refers to
your mains-operated (corded) power tool or
battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
Work area safety
• Keep the work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
• Do not operate power tools in explosive
atmospheres, such as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gases or dust.
Power tools create sparks which may ignite
the dust or fumes.
• Keep children and bystanders away while
operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose control.
Electrical safety
• Power tool plugs must match the outlet.
Never modify the plug in any way. Do
not use any adaptor plugs with earthed
(grounded) power tools.
Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will
reduce the risk of electric shock.
• Avoid body contact with earthed or
grounded surfaces, such as pipes,
radiators, ranges and refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of electric shock if
your body is earthed or grounded.
• Do not expose power tools to rain or wet
7
conditions. Water entering a power tool will
increase the risk of electric shock.
• Do not abuse the cable. Never use the cable
for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power
tool. Keep the cable away from heat, oil,
sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or
entangled cables increase the risk of electric
shock.
• When operating a power tool outdoors, use
an extension cable suitable for outdoor
use. Use of an extension cable suitable
for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric
shock.
• If operating a power tool in a damp location
is unavoidable, use a residual current device
(RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD
reduces the risk of electric shock.
Personal safety
• Stay alert, watch what you are doing and
use common sense when operating a
power tool. Do not use a power tool while
you are tired or under the influence of
drugs, alcohol or medication.
A moment of inattention while operating
power tools may result in serious personal
injury.
• Use personal protective equipment. Always
wear eye protection (PPE).
8
Protective equipment, such as a dust mask,
non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing
protection used for appropriate conditions,
will reduce personal injuries.
• Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure
the switch is in the off-position before
connecting to a power source and/or
battery pack, and before picking up or
carrying the tool. Carrying power tools
with your finger on the switch or energising
power tools that have the switch on invites
accidents.
• Remove any adjusting key or wrench
before turning the power tool on. A wrench
or a key left attached to a rotating part of
the power tool may result in personal injury.
• Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and
balance at all times. This enables better
control of the power tool in unexpected
situations.
• Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing
or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and
gloves away from moving parts. Loose
clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught
in moving parts.
• If devices are provided for dust extraction
and collection facilities, ensure these
are connected and properly used. Use
of dust collection apparatus can reduce
dust-related hazards.
9
• Do not let familiarity gained from
frequent use of tools allow you to become
complacent and ignore tool safety
principles. A careless action can cause
severe injury within a fraction of a second.
Power tool use and care
• Do not force the power tool. Use the
correct power tool for your application.
The correct power tool will do the job
better and safer at the rate for which it was
designed.
• Do not use the power tool if the switch
does not turn it on and off. Any power tool
that cannot be controlled with the switch is
dangerous and must be repaired.
• Disconnect the plug from the power
source and/or the battery pack from
the power tool before making any
adjustments, changing accessories, or
storing power tools. Such preventive safety
measures reduce the risk of starting the
power tool accidentally.
• Store idle power tools out of the reach
of children, and do not allow persons
unfamiliar with the power tool, or these
instructions, to operate the power tool.
Power tools are dangerous in the hands of
untrained users.
10
• Maintain power tools. Check for
misalignment or binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts and any other condition
that may affect the power tools operation.
If damaged, have the power tool repaired
before use. Many accidents are caused by
poorly maintained power tools.
• Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly maintained cutting tools with
sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind
and are easier to control.
• Use the power tool, accessories and
tool bits, etc., in accordance with these
instructions, taking into account the
working conditions and the work to be
performed. Use of the power tool for
operations different from those intended
could result in a hazardous situation.
• Keep handles and gripping surfaces dry,
clean and free from oil and grease. Slippery
handles and gripping surfaces do not allow
for safe handling and control of the tool in
unexpected situations.
Service
• Have your power tool serviced by a
qualified repair person using only identical
replacement parts. This will ensure that the
safety of the power tool is maintained.
