General Power Tool Safety Warnings Read all safety warnings, instruc- EWARNING tions, illustrations and specifica- tions provided with this power tool. Failure to follow all in- structions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/ or serious injury. Save all warnings and instructions for future reference. The term "power tool" in the warnings refers to your mains- operated (corded) power tool or battery-aperated (cord less) 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 > Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded sur- faces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerat- ors. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of elec- tric shock Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carry- ing, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cord increase the risk of electric shock When operating a power tool outdoors, use an exten- sion cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of à cord suit able for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock. If operating a power tool in a damp location is un- avoidable, use a residual current device (RCD) protec- ted 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. À moment of inatten- tion while operating power tools may result in serious per: sonal injury. Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as a dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal in-

juries. > 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 en: ergising power tools that have the switch on invites acci- dents. 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 in- jury. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at alltimes. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jew- ellery. Keep your hair and clothing 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 ex- traction and collection facilities, ensure these are con- nected and properly used. Use of dust collection can re duce dust-related hazards. Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of tools allow you to become complacent and ignore tool

safety principles. À careless action can cause severe in- jury within a fraction of à second. Power tool use and care > Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct power tool ill do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was de- signed. Do not use the power tool ifthe switch does notturn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or re- move the battery pack, if detachable, from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing ac- cessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally. 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 and accessories. Check for mis- alignment 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 main tained 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 ac- count the working conditions and the work to be per- formed. Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation. Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean and free from oil and grease. Slippery handies and grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling and control of the tool in unexpected situations. Battery tool use and care > Recharge only withthe charger specified by the manu- facturer. À charger that is suitable for one type of bat- tery pack may create a risk of fire when used with another battery pack. > Use power tools only with specifically designated bat- tery packs. Use of any other battery packs may create à risk of injury and fire. > When battery pack is not in use, keepit 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 orafire. > Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery: avoid contact. If contact accidentally oc- curs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, addi-

English|13 tionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the bat- tery may cause irritation or burns. Do not use a battery pack or tool that is damaged or modified. Damaged or modified batteries may exhibit unpredictable behaviour resulting in fire, explosion or risk ofinjury. Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire or excess- ive temperature. Exposure to fire or temperature above 130°C may cause explosion Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the battery pack or tool outside the temperature range specified in the instructions. Charging improperly or at temperatures outside the specified range may damage the battery and increase the risk offre.

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. > Never service damaged battery packs. Service of bat- tery packs should only be performed by the manufacturer or authorized service providers. Hedge trimmer safety warnings > Keepall parts of the body away from the blade. Do not remove cut material or hold material to be cut when blades are moving. Blades continue to move after the sitchis turned off. À moment of attention while oper- ating the hedge trimmer may result in serious personal in- jury. Carry the hedge trimmer by the handle with the blade stopped and taking care not to operate any power switch. Proper carrying of the hedge trimmer will de- crease the risk of inadvertent starting and resultant per- sonal injury from the blades. When transporting or storing the hedge trimmer, al- ways fit the blade cover. Proper handling of the hedge trimmer will decrease the risk of personal injury from the blades. When clearing jammed material or servicing the unit, make sure all power switches are off and the battery pack is removed or disconnected. Unexpected actu- ation of the hedge trimmer while clearing jammed mater- ial or servicing may result in serious personal injury. Hold the hedge trimmer by insulated gripping sur- faces only, because the blade may contact hidden wir- ing. Blades contacting alive” wire may make exposed metal parts of the hedge trimmer live" and could give the operator an electric shock. Keep all power cords and cables away from cutting area. Povier cords or cables may be hidden in hedges or bushes and can be accidentally cut by the blade. Do not use the hedge trimmer in bad weather condi- tions, especially when there is a risk of lightning. This decreases the risk of being struck by lightning

Thatthe vibration and noise emissions during actual use of the power tool can differ from the declared values depend ing on the ways in which the tool is used especially what kind of workpiece is processed: and of the need to identify safety measures to protect the operator that are based on an estim- ation of the exposure measures in the actual conditions of use (taking account of all parts of the operating cycle such as the times when the tool is switched off and when itis running idle in addition to the trigger time). Switching on For Your Safety > Caution: Switch garden tool off and remove battery from machine before adjusting or cleaning. > The blades continue to move for a fraction of a second after the hedge trimmer is switched off. > Do not touch the moving blades. Charging the Battery > Pay attention to the mains voltage. The voltage of the power source must match the voltage specified on the rating plate of the charger. The battery is equipped with temperature monitoring that al- lows charging only in the temperature range between O °C and 35°C. In this manner, a high battery service life is achieved. Note: The battery is supplied partially charged. To ensure full battery capacity, completely charge the battery in the battery charger before using for the first time. The lithium-ion battery can be charged at any time without reducingits service life. nterrupting the charging procedure does not cause damage to the battery. The “Electronic Cell Protection (ECP)" protects the lithium- ion battery against deep discharging. When the battery is empty, the product is switched off by means of a protective circuit: The product no longer operates. Do not continue to press the On/Off switch after an auto- matic shut-off of the product. The battery could become damaged Observe the notes for disposal of the battery. Inserting/Removing the Battery (see figure B) Note: Using unsuitable batteries can lead to malfunctions or damage the machine. Insert the charged battery (9). Ensure the battery is inserted correctiy. To remove the battery (9) from the machine, press the bat- tery unlocking button (8) and pull the battery out. English] 17 Charging Procedure The charging procedure starts as soon as the mains plug of the charger is plugged into a socket outlet and the battery (9) is inserted onto the charger (7) Due to the intelligent charging method, the charging condi tion of the battery is automatically detected and the battery is charged with the optimum charging current, depending on battery temperature and voltage. This gives longer life to the battery and always leaves it fully charged when kept in the charger for storage.

Hedgecutter Problem Possible Cause Hedgecutter does not _ Battery discharged Working with the Hedgecutter (see figure E) Move the hedgecutter evenly forward along the cutting line. The double edge cutting blade enables cutting in either dir- ection, or with a side to side motion. Cutthe sides ofthe hedge fist, then the top. To cut the sides straightly, we recommend cutting from bot- tom to top in the direction of growth. Younger stems tend to move outwards when cutting them from top to bottom, res- ulting in shallow patches or holes in the hedge. To reach level finish, fasten a piece of string along the length of the hedge at the required height and use as an alignment guide. Cut the hedge just above the string. Pay attention that no objects such as wires are cut. The blade or drive can be damaged. Anti Blocking Ifthe blade stalls on a tough material, the load of the motor increases. The intelligent micro-electronics senses this over- load condition and repeatedly reverses the motor, in order to prevent stalling and to cut the branch through. This audible reversing cut action continues for up to 3 s. After cutting through, the garden product continues in its normal mode, or in case the overload condition continues the blades automatically stop in the open position (e.g. in case a piece of metal fence accidentally blocks the garden product).
