Optimum safety
The 5 special features two-hand safety switch, quick
blade stop, protective cover, blade safety rail and impact
protector are fitted to provide the hedge trimmer with
optimum safety features.
Attention!
If you find out that safety functions, such as
the 2-switch mechanism or the safety stop, are
not functioning while working with the hedge
shears, immediately cease working and take
the machine to a specialised shop for repairing.
Two-hand safety switch (Fig. 4)
To switch the hedge shears on the bar switch in the
handle (A) and the grip switch of the bow-type handle (B)
must be pushed down. To switch the device off let go of
both switches. The motor already stops if one of the two
switches is released.
Quick blade stop
In order to avoid injuries through cuts, the blade will
stop in max. 0.5 sec. when one of the two switches is
released.
Blade safety rail (Fig. 8)
The cutting blade set back from the blade housing reduc-
es the risk of injuries due to unintentional body contact.
Impact protector (Fig. 1)
The extended guide rail prevents unpleasant shocks
(blade recoil) being transmitted to the operator due to
impact with solid objects (wall, ground etc.).
Gear protection feature
If solid objecst are caught in the cutting blade and jam
the motor, switch off the machine at once, disconnect the
power plug from the power socket, remove the object and
continue with the work.
The equipment is also fitted with an overload cutout,
which protects the gears against mechanical damage in
the event of blade jams.
Storing the trimmer after use
The hedge shears must be stored such that there is
no danger of injuries being caused to persons by the
cutting blades!
Important note: The shearing blades should be cleaned
after each use.(see also Section Maintenance).This will
considerably increase the service life of the device. Please
use a lubricator that is not harmful to the environment , e.
g. our service spray. Then put the shears in their case with
the cutting blades first.
Repair service
Repairs to electric power tools should only be carried out
by specialist electrical personnel.
