Your hedge trimmer has been engineered and manufactured to McCulloch's high standard for dependability, ease of operation, and operator safety. When properly cared for, it will give you years of rugged, trouble-free performance.

WARNING! Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.

INTENDED USE

This hedge trimmer is intended for cutting and trimming hedges and bushes in domestic use. It is not intended to be used for cutting above shoulder level.

- Save all warnings and instructions for future reference. The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your battery-operated (cordless) power tool.

WORK AREA SAFETY

• Keep 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

■ Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase 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.
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. Protective equipment such as dust mask, gloves, 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 power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool.

Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or energizing 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 over-reach. 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 the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.

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.
  ■ 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.
• Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tool's 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.
  ■ Disconnect 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.

BATTERY TOOL USE AND CARE

■ Ensure the switch is in the off position before inserting battery pack. Inserting the battery pack into power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
■ Recharge only with the charger specified by the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with another battery pack.

GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

■ Use power tools only with specifically designated battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.
■ When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects like paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws, or other small metal objects that can make a connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery terminals together may cause burns or fire.
■ Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally occurs, flush with plenty of soap and water. If liquid contacts eyes, immediately seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.

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.

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 material. A moment of inattention while operating the hedge trimmer may result in serious personal injury.
• Carry the hedge trimmer by the handle with the 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 surfaces only, because the cutter blade may contact hidden wiring. 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.
  ■ Use both hands when operating the hedge trimmer. Using one hand could cause loss of control and result in serious personal injury.

DANGER! Keep hands away from blade.

WARNING! Only use with handle and guard properly assembled to hedge trimmer. The use of the hedge trimmer without the proper guard or handle provided may result in serious personal injury.

It has been reported that vibrations from hand-held tools may contribute to a condition called Raynaud's Syndrome in certain individuals. Symptoms may include tingling, numbness and blanching of the fingers, usually apparent upon exposure to cold. Hereditary factors, exposure to cold and dampness,

diet, smoking and work practices are all thought to contribute to the development of these symptoms. It is presently unknown what, if any, vibrations or extent of exposure may contribute to the condition. There are measures that can be taken by the operator to possibly reduce the effects of vibration:

• Keep your body warm in cold weather. When operating the unit wear gloves to keep the hands and wrists warm. It is reported that cold weather is a major factor contributing to Raynaud's Syndrome.
  ■ After each period of operation, exercise to increase blood circulation.
  ■ Take frequent work breaks. Limit the amount of exposure per day.

If you experience any of the symptoms of this condition, immediately discontinue use and see your physician about these symptoms.

WORKING TECHNIQUES

OPERATING TIPS

■ 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 try to cut stems or twigs that are larger than 15 mm thick, or those obviously too large to feed into the cutting blade. Use a non-powered hand saw or pruning saw to trim large stems.
If desired, you can use a string to help cut your hedge level. Decide how high you want the hedge. Then, stretch a piece of string along the hedge at this height. Trim the hedge just above this guide line of string. Trim the side of a hedge so that it will be slightly narrower at the top. More of the hedge will be exposed when shaped this way, and it will be more uniform. If blades do become jammed, stop the motor, allow the blades to stop and remove the battery pack before attempting to remove the obstruction.

■ Wear gloves when trimming thorny or prickly growth. When trimming new growth, use a wide sweeping action, so that the stems are fed directly into the cutting blade. Older growth will have thicker stems and will be trimmed easiest by using a sawing movement.

DANGER! If blade jams on any electrical cord or line, DO NOT TOUCH THE BLADE! IT CAN BECOME ELECTRICALLY LIVE AND VERY DANGEROUS. Continue to hold the hedge trimmer by the insulated rear handle or lay it down and away from you in a safe manner. Disconnect the electrical service to the damaged line or cord before attempting to free the blade from the line or cord. Failure to heed this warning will result in serious personal injury or possible death.

WARNING! Clear the area to be cut before each use. Remove all objects such as cords, lights, wire, or string which can become entangled in the cutting blade and create a risk of serious personal injury.

WARNING! Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts. Most plastics are susceptible to damage from various types of commercial solvents and may be damaged by their use. Use a clean cloth to remove dirt, oil, grease, etc. When servicing use only identical McCulloch replacement parts. Use of any other parts can create a hazard or cause product damage.

CAUTION! Do not at any time let brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum based products, penetrating oils, etc., come in contact with plastic parts. They contain chemicals that may damage, weaken, or destroy plastics.

MAINTENANCE

GENERAL MAINTENANCE

OPĆE SIGURNOSNE MJERE OPREZA

Vaš je trimer za ogradu projektiran i proizveden prema visokoj normi za pouzdanost, jednostavnost u radu i sigurnost rukovatelja tvrtke McCulloch. Kada se pravilno o njemu brinete pružit će vam godine nesmetanog rada.

PRAVILA ZA SIGURAN RAD

NAPOMENA: Baterija čvrsto nasjeda u ručku kako bi se spriječilo da ispadne. Možda je bude trebalo jako povući za uklanjanje.

UGRADNJA BATERIJE

OPREZ! Kada postavljate bateriju u trimer za ogradu, provjerite je li utor baterije poravnat s podignutim rubom na trimeru za ogradu i da je zasun pravilno uskočio na mjesto. Nepravilno sklapanje baterije može dovesti do oštećenja unutrašnjih komponenti.

VAŽNO! Baterija se ne isporučuje potpuno napunjena. Preporučujemo da bateriju potpuno napunite prije početnog korištenja. Redovitim korištenjem, bateriji treba 1 sat ili manje da se potpuno napuni. Preporučujemo da se baterija puni svaka 3 mjeseca kad se trimer za ogradu ne koristi. Vrijeme rada baterije će se poboljšati nakon trećeg ili četvrtog punjenja.

SAVJETI ZA RAD

■ Ne primjenjujte silu na alat pokušavajući rezati previše gustu živicu. Oštrica bi se mogla saviti i usporiti. Ako oštrica uspori, režite polakše.
■ Ne pokušavajte rezati stabiljike ili grane deblje od 15 mm ili dijelove koji su preveliki da bi ih zupci odrezali. Za rezanje grana koje su prevelike da ih režu škare za živicu, upotrijebite ručnu pilu ili alat za obrezivanje.
■ Za rezanje grana koje su prevelike da ih režu škare za živicu, upotrijebite ručnu pilu ili alat za obrezivanje. Ako želite živicu izrezati ravno, preporučamo vam uporabu špage; Prvo odredite željenu visinu živice. Zatim na toj visini napnite špagu uzduž živice. Režite neposredno iznad napete špage. Režite i stranice živice kako bi ona blla nešto uža na gornjem dijelu. Izgled će tako biti jednoličniji. Ako se zubi ukliješte, zaustavite motor i pričekajte da se oštrica zaustavi te izvadite bateriju prije nego što pokušate ukloniti dijelove koji su ukliješteni u zubima.

Kad režete trnovitu živicu, nosite rukavice. Kad režete mlado grmlje, neka vam pokreti nalikuju širokim pokretima pri metenju kako bi zupci ispravno zahvaćali stabljike. Kad režete starije grmlje, neka vam pokreti nalikuju pri piljenju (naprijed-nazad) jer su stabljike čvršće.

OPASNOST! Ako zupci dođu u dodir sa kablovima za struju NE DIRAJTE OŠTRICU! ONA MOŽE POSTATI VODIČ. TO JE VRLO OPASNO. Držite škare za živicu za glavnu ručku, koja je izolirana, i oprezno je stavite dalje od sebe. Isključite dovod struje kabla koji ste zarezali prije no što ga oslobodite zubaca oštrice. Nepoštivanje ovog savjeta može dovesti do teških tjelesnih ozljeda ili smrti.

UPOZORENJE! Očistite zonu rezanja prije uporabe alata. Uklonite sve predmete poput kablova za napajanje, električnih kablova ili žica koje bi se mogle zaplesti u zupce oštrice i uzrokovati teške tjelesne ozljede.

PODMAZIVANJE TRIMERA ZA OGRADU

■ Pospremite i ponovno punite bateriju na svježem mjestu. Temperature koje su više ili niže od normalne temperature okoliša skraćuju vijek trajanja baterije.

■ Pohranite bateriju na mjestu na kojem je temperatura ispod 27C i dalje od vlage.

Nikad ne spremajte praznu bateriju. Nakon uporabe pričekajte da se baterija ohladi i odmah je napunite.
