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.
SERVICE
Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair
person using only identical replacement parts. This
will ensure that safety of the power tool is maintained.
HEDGE TRIMMER SAFETY WARNINGS
Keep all parts of the body away from the cutter
blade. Do not remove cut material or hold material
to be cut when blades are moving. Make sure the
switch is off when clearing jammed materials.
A moment of inattention while operating the hedge
trimmer may result in serious personal injury.
Carry the hedge trimmer by the handle with cutter
blade stopped. When transporting or storing the
hedge trimmer always fit the cutting device cover.
Proper handling of the hedge trimmer will reduce
possible personal injury from the cutter blades.
Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surface
only, because the cutter blade may contact hidden
wiring or its own cord. Cutter Blades contacting a
"live" wire may make exposed metal parts of the power
tool "live" and could give the operator an electric shock.
Keep cable away from cutting area. During operation
the cable may be hidden in shrubs and can be
accidentally cut by the blade.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES
Clear the work area before each use. Remove all
objects such as cords, lights, wire, or string which can
be thrown or become entangled in the cutting means.
Electrical power should be supplied via a residual
current device (RCD) with a tripping current of not more
than 30 mA.
If the power cable becomes damaged, you must return
the tool to an approved service centre for repair or
replacement in order to avoid a safety hazard.
Beware of thrown objects; keep all bystanders, children,
and pets at least 15m away from work area.
Do not operate in poor lighting. The operator requires a
clear view of the work area to identify potential hazards.
Inspect the machine before each use. Check for loose
fasteners, fuel leaks, etc. Make sure all guards, and
handles are properly and securely attached. Replace
any damaged parts before use.
Do not modify the machine in any way.
Do not allow children or untrained individuals to use this
unit.

Wear full eye and hearing protection while operating the
product. If working in an area where there is a risk of
falling objects, head protection must be worn.
Wear heavy long trousers, boots, and gloves. Do not
wear loose fitting clothing, short trousers, jewellery of
any kind, or use with bare feet.
Secure long hair so it is above shoulder level to prevent
entanglement in moving parts.
Do not use this machine when you are tired, ill, or under
the influence of alcohol, drugs, or medication.
Keep firm footing and balance. Do not overreach.
Overreaching can result in loss of balance and can
result in serious injury.
Before starting the machine, make sure the cutting
blades will not come in contact with anything.
While operating the hedge trimmer, always hold it firmly
with both hands by the two handles and ensure that the
operating position is safe and secure. The manufacturer
does not recommend the use of steps or ladders. If
higher trimming is required use an extended reach tool.
Blades are sharp. When handling the blade assembly,
wear non-slip, heavy-duty protective gloves. Do not
place your hand or fingers between blades or in any
position where they could get pinched or cut. NEVER
touch blade or service unit with the power cord
connected to the supply.
Switch off and disconnect from the power supply before:
adjusting the working position of the cutting device
cleaning or clearing a blockage
leaving the product unattended
checking, maintenance or working on the machine.
Do not force the hedge trimmer through heavy
shrubbery. This can cause the blades to bind and slow
down. If the blades slow down, reduce the pace.
Do not attempt to cut stems or twigs that are larger than
26 mm thick for RHT5555RS/RHT5555RSH, 28 mm
thick for RHT6060RS, 30 mm thick for RHT6560RL, or
34 mm for RHT7565RL, or those obviously too large to
feed into the cutting blade.
Use of hearing protection reduces the ability to hear
warnings (shouts or alarms). The operator must pay
extra attention to what is going on in the working area.
