circumstances.
f) Wear suitable work clothes. Do not wear
loose clothing or jewellery. Keep hair, clo-
thes and gloves away from moving parts.
Loose clothing, jewellery or long hair can get
trapped in moving parts.
g) If vacuuming devices and draining de-
vices can be fi tted, make sure that these
are correctly attached and correctly used.
The use of a dust extraction system can redu-
ce the danger posed by dust.
4. Usage and treatment of the electric tool
a) Do not overload the appliance. Use the
correct tool for your work. You will be able
to work better and more safely within the gi-
ven performance boundaries.
b) Do not use an electric tool with a defec-
tive switch. An electric tool that cannot be
switched on or off is dangerous and must be
repaired.
c) Pull the plug out of the socket and/or
remove the battery before making any ad-
justments to the appliance, changing ac-
cessories or put the appliance down. This
safety measure prevents starting the electric
tool unintentionally.
d) Keep unused electric tools out of the
reach of children. Do not allow people
who are not familiar with the appliance or
who have not read these instructions to
use the appliance. Electric tools are dange-
rous if they are used by inexperienced people.
e) Clean your electric tool carefully. Check
whether moving parts are functioning
properly and not jamming, whether parts
are broken or damaged enough that the
functioning of this electric tool is aff ec-
ted. Damaged parts must be repaired be-
fore using the appliance. Many accidents
are caused by badly maintained electric tools.
f) Keep your cutting tools sharp and clean.
Carefully maintained cutting tools with sharp
cutting edges will jam less and are easier to
control.
g) Make sure to use electric tools, accesso-
ries, spare parts, etc. in accordance with
these instructions. Take the conditions
in your work area and the job to perform
into account. Using electric tools for any
purpose other than the one for which they are
intended can lead to dangerous situations.

5. Service
a) Have your electric tool repaired only by
trained personnel and/or the authorized
service agent, using only genuine spare
parts. This will ensure that your electric tool
remains safe to use.
Safety regulations for hedge trimmers
•
Make sure you keep all parts of your body
away from the blades. Never attempt to
remove the cuttings with the blades run-
ning or to hold material you wish to cut.
Always switch off the equipment before
attempting to remove any jammed cut-
tings. A single moment of carelessness when
using the hedge trimmer can result in serious
injuries.
•
Carry the hedge trimmer by its handle
and make sure the blades have stopped.
Always fit the protective cover when
transporting the hedge trimmer or putting
it into storage. Careful handling of the equip-
ment reduces the likelihood of injury by the
blades.
•
Hold the electric power tool by the insula-
ted handles because the blade may strike
concealed power cables or its own power
lead. Contact between the blade and a live
cable can make the metal parts of the equip-
ment live and cause an electric shock.
•
Keep the cable out of the cutting zone.
During operation the cable may be covered
by hedges and cut through by accident.
Specifi c safety information
Please read this safety information and the direc-
tions for use carefully and be sure to follow the

1. Always remove the power plug from the

the hedge trimmer, e.g.
- repairing a damaged cable
- cleaning the blades

or before leaving the tool unattended.
2. The hedge trimmer can cause serious inju-
ries! Read the directions for use carefully in
order to acquaint yourself with the correct way
to handle, set up, service, start and put down
the machine. Familiarize yourself with all the
machine's control elements and its proper
use.
3. Always handle the hedge trimmer with both
hands.
