The vibration level and noise emission value given in these instructions have been measured in accordance with a standardised measuring procedure and may be used to com- pare power tools. They may also be used for a preliminary estimation of vibration and noise emissions. The stated vibration level and noise emission value repres- ent the main applications of the power tool. However, if the power tool is used for other applications, with different ap- plication tools or is poorly maintained, the vibration level and noise emission value may differ. This may significantly increase the vibration and noise emissions over the total working period. To estimate vibration and noise emissions accurately, the times when the tool is switched off or when it is running but not actually being used should also be taken into account. This may significantly reduce vibration and noise emissions over the total working period. Implement additional safety measures to protect the oper- ator from the effects of vibration, such as servicing the power tool and application tools, keeping their hands warm, and organising workflows correctly. Starting Operation u Use only the chargers listed in the technical data. Only these battery chargers are matched to the lithium-ion bat- tery of your product. Battery Charging (see figure A) Note: The battery is supplied partially charged. To ensure full capacity of the battery, completely charge the battery before using your tool for the first time. The lithium-ion battery can be charged at any time without reducing its service life. Interrupting the charging procedure does not cause damage to the battery. The Lithium-Ion battery is protected against deep dischar- ging. When the battery is discharged, the tool stops the power-assisted cutting and works in manual mode at all cut- ting diameters. The battery needs to be recharged when the battery charge- control indicator (7) briefly flashes red during a cut. The charge procedure begins as soon as the mains plug of the battery charger is plugged into the socket outlet and the charge Micro USB connector (9) is plugged into Micro USB socket (5) at the handle top. The Micro USB socket (5) can only be accessed when the safety lock (6) is locked. F 016 L94 019 | (07.01.2020) Bosch Power ToolsEnglish | 15 The battery charge-control indicator (7) indicates the char- ging progress. The indicator slowly flashes green during charge process. When the battery charge-control indicator lights up green continuously, the battery is fully charged. During the charging procedure, the handle of the machine warms up. This is normal. Disconnect the battery charger from the mains supply when charging process ends. u Protect the charger from moisture. Observe the notes for disposal. Battery charge-control indicator The battery charge-control indicator (7) indicates the charge condition of the battery while in operation. LED Capacity Continuous lighting, green ≥35% Flashing light, green 5 − 35% Single flash, red 0 − 5% Charging Guide Please charge before use. Charge-control indicator will flash red if: – Charger is damaged – Incorrect charger is installed The tool has overload protection software. If the software is activated, the tool will lock to prevent damage. To reset the protection software, connect the charger. Before re-use, we recommend to fully charge the tool until the charge-control indicator is continuously green. Operation Unlocking (see figure B1) Deactivate the safety lock (6) by pushing it back. The tool will open and is now ready for use. Locking After usage, close the handles and engage the safety lock (6) by pushing it forward. Always keep in locked position, when not in use. Gripping position (see figures B2–B4) Grip the tool at the front, as shown. Do not grip the tool to- wards the back of the handles or with finger(s) between the handles. Power-assisted cutting (see figure B) This tool provides power-assisted cutting. It is operated like a pair of manual secateurs and will cut in manual mode without power-assisted cutting until a certain branch dia- meter is reached. The tool will start power-assisted cutting when cutting above this branch diameter by starting the in- tegrated motor. Noise development while power-assisted cutting is active, is normal. Power-assist feature is only active as long as gripping force is exerted on the handles. If no force is exerted onto the handles, the tool stops. Working Advice Pruning tips (see figures C1–C10) Never operate the tool in an awkward posture. This may cause serious injury. Keep your free hand away from the cutting area. Never touch the blades. They are very sharp and you may cut yourself.

Always wear protective gloves while pruning.

Never cut too close to the stem so the wound can heal properly.

Always make the cut about 8mm from the bud.

The cut should slope away from the bud so the rain can run off.

If you remove an entire stem, cut back to the point where it branched.

Never push the blade of the pruner into the ground to cut root suckers.

Cut branches one by one as shown.

Remove overcrowds or crossing stems.
