Generally accepted accident prevention regulations and the enclosed safety information must be observed.
3. General Safety Information
For your own protection and for the protection of your machine, pay attention to all parts of the text that are marked with this symbol!
WARNING – Read the operating instructions to reduce the risk of injury.
WARNING Read all safety warnings and instructions. Failure to follow all safety warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
Keep all safety instructions and information for future reference.
Pass on your machine only together with these documents.
4. Special Safety Instructions
a) Keep all 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 switch is turned
off. A moment of inattention while operating the hedge trimmer may result in serious personal injury.
b) 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 decrease the risk of inadvertent starting and resultant personal injury from the blades.
c) When transporting or storing the hedge trimmer, always fit the blade cover. Proper handling of the hedge trimmer will decrease the risk of personal injury from the blades.
d) When clearing jammed material or servicing the unit, make sure all power switches are off and the power cord is disconnected.
Unexpected actuation of the hedge trimmer while clearing jammed material or servicing may result in serious personal injury.
e) Hold the hedge trimmer by insulated gripping surfaces only, because the blade may contact hidden wiring. Blades contacting a "live" wire may make xposed metal parts of the hedge trimmer "live" and could give the operator an electric shock.
f) Keep all power cords and cables away from cutting area. Power cords or cables may be hidden in hedges or bushes and can be accidentally cut by the blade.
g) Do not use the hedge trimmer in bad weather conditions, especially when there is a risk of lightning. This decreases the risk of being struck by lightning.
Inspect hedges and bushes for wire fences and concealed lines.
Persons under the age of 16 must not used the hedge trimmer.
Never use an incomplete machine, or one on which an unauthorised modification has been made.
Do not switch on the machine if parts or guard devices are missing or defective.
The machine features safety two-hand operation. Have the machine repaired if it can be activated with only one switch.
The machine is provided with a "Quick stop" function. Have the machine repaired if braking time is clearly lengthened.
Wear ear protectors. Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.
Danger of injury from the sharp edges of the blades. Never touch the blades. Wear protective gloves.
Always wear protective goggles, gloves, and suitable shoes when working with the hedge trimmer.
Always hold the machine with both hands and stand firmly on the ground. The hedge trimmer is intended for work where the operator stands on the ground and not on a ladder or any other unstable floor space. Pay attention to obstacles in the working
area - danger of tripping. Keep the cutting blade well away from the body.
Examine the area to be cut and remove wire or other foreign bodies.
If the cutting blades come to a standstill due to a particularly hard branch or foreign body (wire in a hedge) and the stoppage cannot be corrected by pulling the machine back, the motor must first be switched off and the battery pack removed from the machine before the cause of the blockage can be removed manually from the cutting blade.
For other activities (e.g. removing twigs or cuttings), deposit the machine outside the working area.
Lay the machine down such that persons are not at risk.
Remove the battery pack from the machine when not in use.
For storage and transportation, always slide the enclosure onto the cutting blades. (It has been slid on correctly if the Metabo lettering faces upwards).
Only carry the machine by the bow-type handle.
Safety instructions for battery packs:
Protect battery packs from water and moisture!
Do not expose battery packs to fire!
Do not use faulty or deformed battery packs!
Do not open battery packs!
Do not touch or short circuit battery pack contacts!
A slightly acidic, flammable fluid may leak from defective Li-ion battery packs!
If battery fluid leaks out and comes into contact with your skin, rinse immediately with plenty of water. If battery fluid leaks out
and comes into contact with your eyes, wash them with clean water and seek medical attention immediately!
Remove the battery pack from the machine before making any adjustments, changing machines, maintaining or cleaning.
Make sure that the machine is switched off before fitting the battery pack.
Hold the machine when removing and inserting the battery pack so that the on/off switch cannot be unintentionally pressed.
If the machine is defective, remove the battery pack from the machine.
Transport of li-ion battery packs:
The shipping of li-ion battery packs is subject to laws related to the carriage of hazardous goods (UN 3480 and UN 3481). Inform yourself of the currently valid specifications when shipping li-ion battery packs. If necessary, consult your freight forwarder. Certified packaging is available from Metabo.
Only send the battery pack if the housing is intact and no fluid is leaking. Remove the battery pack from the machine for sending. Prevent the contacts from short-circuiting (e.g. by protecting them with adhesive tape).
WARNING - General hazards
Read the operating instructions.
Protect the device from water and moisture. Do not expose to rain. Never use in rain or on wet hedges.
Wear safety goggles.
Wear ear protectors. High noise levels over a prolonged period of time may affect your hearing.
Keep hands away from the blade.
