Electric safety

The plug of the power supply cable must fi t the mains socket. Do not modify the plug. Do not use any adapters whatso-
ever in order to adapt the plug to the socket. Unmodifi ed plug which fi ts the socket reduces the risk of an electric shock.
Avoid contact with grounded surfaces, such as pipes, heaters and refrigerators. Grounding of the body increases the risk
of an electric shock.
Do not expose electric tools to precipitation or humidity. Water and humidity which gets into the electric tool increases the
risk of an electric shock.
Do not overload the power supply cable. Do not use the power supply cable in order to carry the tool or to connect and
disconnect the plug from the mains socket. Avoid contact of the power supply cable with heat, oils, sharp tools and
moving elements. Damage to the power supply cable increases the risk of an electric shock.
In case work is realised outside closed areas, it is necessary to use extension cords designed for applications outside
closed areas. Using a correct extension cord permits to reduce the risk of an electric shock.
If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device (RDC) protected supply. Use of
an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.
Personal safety
Commence work in good physical and psychological conditions. Pay attention to what you do. Do not work if you are
tired or under eff ects of medicines or alcohol. Even a moment's inattention during work may lead to serious injuries.
Always use individual means of protection. Always wear goggles. Using individual means of protection, such as dust-masks,
protective shoes, helmets and hearing protections permits to reduce the risk of serious injuries.
Avoid accidental activation of the tool. Make sure the switch is in the OFF position, before you connect the tool to the
mains. Holding the tool with a fi nger on the switch or connecting an electric tool when the switch is in the ON position may lead
to serious injuries.
Before you turn an electric tool on remove all the spanners and other tools, which have been used for adjustments. A
spanner left on rotating elements of the tool may lead to serious injuries.
Keep your balance. Maintain an appropriate position. It will permit to control the electric tool in case of unpredicted situations
during its operation.
Use protective clothes. Do not wear loose clothes or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothes and gloves away from moving
elements of the electric tool. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair may get caught on moving elements of the tool.
Use dust extractors or dust containers, if the tool is equipped with any. Make sure they are properly connected. Using of
dust extractors permits to reduce the risk of serious injuries.
Operation of the electric tool
Before the battery is installed, make sure the switch is off . Installation of the battery when the switch is on may lead to ac-
cidents.
Use solely the charger recommended by the manufacturer. Using a charger designed for another type of battery may be a
cause of fi re.
The electric tool must be operated exclusively with the battery indicated by the manufacturer. Using another battery may
be a cause of fi re or injuries.
When the battery is not used, it must be stored away from such metal objects as paper clips, coins, nails, screws or other
small metal elements, which might short-circuit the terminals. Short-circuited terminals of the battery may cause burns or fi re.
Under adverse circumstances liquid may leak from the battery; avoid any contact. In case of accidental contact with
the liquid, rinse it with water. In case of eye contact, seek medical. The liquid leaking from the battery may cause irritation
or burns.
Repairs
The tool may be repaired only by authorised service centres, which must use solely original spare parts. It will guarantee
a proper level of safety of operation of the electric tool.

ADDITIONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Keep a safe distance between parts of the body to the blades of the tool. Do not remove the cut material and do not hold
the material to be cut while the blades are working. Make sure, that the switch is in the off position before removing
jammed blades. Even a moment of inattention while operating a hedge shear, can lead to a serious injury.
Carry shear only by the handle and when the blades are stopped. During transporting or storage of the shear always
wear the shield of blades. Proper transporting of the shear reduces the risk of injury.
Keep the cable away from the cutting blades. During operation the cable may be hidden in the branches, there is, therefore,
the possibility of its accidental intersection.
During operation hold the shear with the insulated handles, because the cutting blade can be in contact with the hidden
cable. The blade, which is connected with the live wire may cause, that the metal parts of the shear also are energized, what can
cause electric shock to the operator.
