position.

■ Remove battery pack from the hedge trimmer.

USING THE ROTATING REAR HANDLE

See figure 4.

■ Place the hedge trimmer on a flat and even surface.
■ Make sure that you turned off the hedge trimmer.
■ Press the rotation lever (5) and begin turning the rear handle. Release the rotation lever and turn the handle 45 or 90 degrees to either side until it clicks into place and the lever locks in.
■ To turn the handle back to center, press the rotation lever again, turn the handle slightly, release the rotation lever and continue turning the handle until it locks into place.

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. See Figure 5. Trim the side of a hedge so that it will be slightly narrower at the top. See Figure 6. 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 Greenworks Tools 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 AND REPAIR

Battery units do not have to be plugged into an electrical outlet; therefore, they are always in operating condition. To prevent serious personal injury, always remove the battery and take extra precautions and care when performing maintenance, service or for changing the cutting blade.

WARNING

To prevent serious personal injury, remove the battery pack before servicing, cleaning, or removing material from the unit.

BLADE CARE

■ Lubricate the cutting blades after each use.
■ Periodically inspect the blades for damage and wear.
■ Always use the manufacturer's specified replacement blades.

English (Original instructions)

TO LUBRICATE BLADE

See figure 7.

■ Remove battery pack from hedge trimmer.

For easier operation and longer blade life, lubricate the hedge trimmer blade before and after each use. Before lubricating, remove the battery pack and lay hedge trimmer on a flat surface. Apply light weight machine oil along the edge of the top blade.

■ Occasionally, you should oil your hedge trimmer during prolonged use. Before oiling, stop hedge trimmer, remove battery pack, then oil. You then can resume trimming. Do not oil while hedge trimmer is running.

All of the bearings in this tool are lubricated with a sufficient amount of high-grade lubricant for the life of the unit under normal operating procedures. Therefore, no further lubrication is required.

WARNING

Do not attempt to modify this unit or create or mount any accessory not specifically recommended in this manual for use with this hedge trimmer. Any such alteration or modification is misuse and could result in a hazardous condition leading to possible serious personal injury.

WARNING

Examine hedge trimmer frequently to assure all parts are unbroken and securely attached. Make sure all screws and fasteners are securely tightened to prevent the risk of serious personal injury.

CLEANING THE HEDGE TRIMMER

WARNING

To prevent serious personal injury, remove the battery pack before servicing, cleaning, or removing material from the unit.

■ Remove the battery pack.
■ Clean the unit using a damp cloth with a mild detergent.
■ Do not use any strong detergents on the plastic housing or the handle. They can be damaged by certain aromatic oils such as pine and lemon, and by solvents such as kerosene.
■ Moisture can cause a shock hazard. Wipe off any moisture with a soft dry cloth.
■ Use a small brush or the air discharge of a small

vacuum cleaner brush to clean the air vents on the battery pack housing and motor housing.

- Keep the air vents free of obstructions.

STORING THE HEDGE TRIMMER

See figure 8.

■ Clean the hedge trimmer thoroughly before storing. Store the hedge trimmer in a dry, well-ventilated place that is inaccessible to children. Keep away from corrosive agents such as garden chemicals and deicing salts.

■ Always place blade cover on cutting blades before storing. See Figure 8.

■ Store and charge your batteries in a cool area. Temperatures above or below normal room temperature will shorten battery pack life.

■ Store the battery pack where the temperature is below 27^ C, and away from moisture.

■ Never store batteries in a discharged condition. Wait for battery pack to cool and fully charge immediately.

All batteries gradually lose their charge. The higher the temperature, the quicker they lose their charge. If you store your unit for long periods of time without using it, recharge the batteries every month or two. This practice will prolong battery pack life.
