The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool. WARNING Read all safety warnings, instructions, illus- trations and specifications provided with this power tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.

a) Keep your work area clean and well-lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents. b) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmo- spheres, such as in the presence of flammable liq- uids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes. c) Keep children and bystanders away while operat- ing a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

2) Electrical safety

a) The connection plug of the electric tool must fit in- to the socket. 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. b) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded sur- faces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrig- erators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded. c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet condi- tions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock. d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for car- rying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock. e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an ex- tension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of elec- tric shock. f) If operating a power tool in a damp location is un- avoidable, use a residual current device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.

a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use com- mon 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 mo- ment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury. 18 | GB www.scheppach.comb) Wear personal protective equipment and always safety goggles. Protective equipment such as a dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, safety helmet or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries. c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before connecting to power source and/or rechargeable battery, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your fin- ger on the switch or energising power tools that have the switch on invites accidents. d) Remove any adjusting tools or spanners/keys be- fore 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. e) Avoid abnormal postures. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations. f) 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. g) If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of dust ex- traction can reduce dust-related hazards. h) Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of tools allow you to become complacent and ignore tool safety principles. A careless action can cause severe injury within a fraction of a second.

4) Power tool use and care

a) 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. b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be con- trolled with the switch is dangerous and must be re- paired. c) Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or remove the battery pack, if detachable, from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such precautionary measures reduce the risk of start- ing the power tool accidentally. d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the pow- er tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of un- trained users. e) Maintain power tools and attachments. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, break- age of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many ac- cidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools. f) 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. g) Use electric tools, insertion tools, etc. according to these instructions. Take into account the work- ing conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from those in- tended could result in a hazardous situation. h) Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean and free from oil and grease. Slippery handles and grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling and control of the tool in unexpected situations.

5) Battery tool use and care

a) Only charge the batteries with battery chargers recommended by the manufacturer. A battery char- ger that is suitable for a particular type of battery pos- es a fire hazard when used with other batteries. b) Only use the batteries in power tools that are de- signed for them. The use of other batteries can lead to injuries and a risk of fire. c) Keep the unused battery away from paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other small metal ob- jects that could cause a short-circuit between the contacts. A short-circuit between the contacts of the battery could result in burns or fires. d) Liquid may leak from the battery if used incorrect- ly. Avoid contact with it. In case of accidental con- tact, rinse with water. If the liquid gets into your eyes, seek additional medical attention. Leaking battery fluid may cause skin irritation or burns. e) Do not use a damaged or modified battery. Dam- aged or modified batteries can behave unpredictably and cause fire, explosion or injury. f) Do not expose a battery to fire or excessive tem- peratures. Fire or temperatures above 130°C may cause an explosion. g) Follow all charging instructions and never charge the battery or rechargeable tool outside the tem- perature range specified in the operating manual. Incorrect charging or charging outside the approved temperature range can destroy the battery and in- crease the risk of fire.

a) Only have your power tool repaired by qualified specialists and only with original spare parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is main- tained. b) Never attempt to service damaged batteries. Any type of battery maintenance shall be carried out only by the manufacturer or an authorised customer ser- vice centre.

4.1 General safety instructions

a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use com- mon 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 mo- ment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury. b) National regulations may restrict the use of the prod- uct. c) Take regular breaks and move your hands to promote circulation. GB | 19www.scheppach.comd) Always hold the product tight with both hands during work. Make sure that you have a secure foot- ing.

4.2 Safety instructions for hedge

trimmers a) Do not use the hedge trimmer in bad weather con- ditions, especially when there is a risk of light- ning. This decreases the risk of being struck by light- ning. b) Keep all power cords and cables away from cut- ting area. Power cords or cables may be hidden in hedges or bushes and can be accidentally cut by the blade. c) Hold the hedge trimmer by insulated gripping sur- faces only, because the blade may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Blades contacting a “live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the hedge trimmer “live” and could give the operator an electric shock. d) 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 seri- ous personal injury. e) Make sure all switches are off and the battery is removed before removing trapped clippings or servicing the product. Unexpected actuation of the hedge trimmer while clearing jammed material or ser- vicing may result in serious personal injury. f) 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 resul- tant personal injury from the blades. g) When transporting or storing the hedge trimmer, always use the blade cover. Proper handling of the hedge trimmer will decrease the risk of personal injury from the blades.

4.2.1 Pole hedge trimmer safety warnings

a) Always use head protection when operating the pole hedge trimmer overhead. Falling debris can re- sult in serious personal injury. b) Always use two hands when operating the pole hedge trimmer. Hold the pole hedge trimmer with both hands to avoid loss of control. c) To reduce the risk of electrocution, never use the pole hedge trimmer near any electrical power lines. Contact with or use near power lines may cause serious injury or electric shock resulting in death.

4.2.2 Additional safety instructions

a) Always wear safety gloves, safety goggles, hearing protection, sturdy shoes and long trousers when work- ing with this product. b) The hedge trimmer is intended for work where the op- erator stands on the ground and not on a ladder or other unstable standing surface. c) Electrical hazard, remain at least 10 m from overhead wires. d) Do not attempt to loosen a jammed/blocked cutter bar until you have switched off the product and removed the battery. There is a danger of injury! e) The blades must be checked regularly for wear and have them resharpened. Blunt blades overload the product.

9.1.1 Cutting techniques

• Cut out thick branches beforehand with pruning shears.

• The double-sided cutter bar allows cutting in both di- rections, or using a pendulum movement, swinging the trimmer back and forth.

• When cutting vertically, move the product smoothly forwards or up and down in an arc.

• When cutting horizontally, move the product in a cres- cent shape towards the edge of the hedge so that cut branches fall to the ground. GB | 23www.scheppach.com• To get long straight lines, it is advisable to stretch guide strings.

It is advisable to cut hedges in a trapezoidal shape to pre- vent the lower branches from becoming bare. This corre- sponds to natural plant growth and allows hedges to thrive. When pruning, only the new annual shoots are re- duced, so that a dense branching and a good screen is formed.

• Trim the sides of a hedge first. To do this, move the product with the direction of growth from bottom to top. If you cut from the top down, thinner branches move outwards and this can create thin spots or holes.

• Then cut the top edge straight, roof-shaped or round, depending on your taste.

• Trim even young plants to the desired shape. The main shoot should remain undamaged until the hedge has reached the planned height. All other shoots are cut in half.

9.1.3 Cut at the right time

• Leaf hedge: June and October

• Conifer hedge: April and August

• Fast growing hedge: around every 6 weeks from May Pay attention to nesting birds in the hedge. Delay the hedge cut or leave this area out if this is the case.

• Always switch the product off before placing it down and wait until the product has come to a standstill.

• Put on the supplied blade guard after each instance of working with the product.

• Allow the product to cool. 10 Cleaning WARNING Have maintenance and repair tasks that are not described in this operating manual, car- ried out by a specialist workshop.

However, if a product does not function perfectly, we deeply regret this and ask that you contact our customer service at the address specified below. We will also be glad to assist you by telephone via the service number. The following information is intended to help you to process and settle your claim without any problems. For the assertion of warranty claims, the following ap- plies:

1. The warranty conditions govern our additional man-

ufacturer warranty services for purchasers (private end consumers) of new products. The statutory war- ranty claims are not affected by this warranty. This is the responsibility of the dealer who you purchased the product from.

2. The manufacturer's warranty only covers defects in

a new product purchased by you that are due to a ma- terial or manufacturing defect. If material or manufac- turing defects occur during the warranty period, the manufacturer as guarantor shall provide one of the fol- lowing services of its choice under this warranty: – Free repair of the goods – Free replacement of the goods with an item of equal value (if necessary also replacement with a successor model if the original goods are no lon- ger available). Replaced products or parts shall become our proper- ty. Please note that our products were not designed for commercial, trade or professional use. A warranty claim is therefore not valid if the product has been used in commercial, trade or industrial operations within the warranty period or has been subjected to equivalent stress.

3. The following are excluded from our warranty ser-

vices: 26 | GB www.scheppach.com– Damage to the product which was caused by non- observance of the assembly instructions, improper installation, non-observance of the operating in- structions (e.g. connection to an incorrect mains voltage or type of current) or the maintenance and safety regulations or use of the product in unsuit- able environmental conditions as well as by insuffi- cient care and maintenance. – Damage to the product caused by misuse or im- proper application (such as overloading the prod- uct or using non-approved tools and accessories), penetration of foreign bodies into the product (such as sand, stones or dust), transport damage, use of force or external influences (such as dam- age caused if dropped). – Damage to the product or parts of the product which is due to intentional, normal (operational) or other natural wear as well as damage and/or wearing of wear parts. – Defects in the product which have been caused by the use of accessories, expansions or spare parts that are not original parts or are not used as in- tended. – Products on which changes or modifications have been made. – Minor deviations from the target characteristics which are irrelevant for the value and usability of the product. – Products on which unauthorised repairs have been carried out, in particular by an unauthorised third party. – If the marking on the product or the identification information of the product (machine label) is miss- ing or illegible. – Products that are very dirty and are therefore re- fused by the service personnel. – Claims for damages and consequential damages are generally excluded from this warranty.

4. The warranty period is usually 5 years (12 months

for batteries/rechargeable batteries) and starts from the date of purchase of the product. The date on the original purchase receipt is decisive. Warranty claims must be made immediately after becoming aware of them. The assertion of warranty claims after expiry of the warranty period is excluded. The repair or replace- ment of the product does not result in an extension of the warranty period, nor does this service initiate a new warranty period for the product or for any in- stalled spare parts. This also applies when using an on-site service. A prerequisite for a claim under the warranty is that the manufacturer, as the guarantor, is enabled to examine the warranty claim by sending in the goods at the manufacturer's request. Care must be taken to avoid damage during transport by using appropriate packaging. The product concerned is to be cleaned and returned to the service centre together with a copy of the purchase receipt, which must in- clude the date of purchase and the product designa- tion. If a product is sent in incomplete without the complete scope of delivery, the missing accessories will be charged / deducted in value if the product is ex- changed or in the event of a refund. Partially or com- pletely dismantled products cannot be accepted as a warranty claim. In the event of an unjustified complaint or if outside the warranty period, the purchaser shall generally bear the transport costs and the transport risk. Please report a warranty claim in advance to the service centre (see below). It is generally agreed upon that the defective product will be returned to the service address given below with a brief description of the fault by organised return or, in the case of repair out- side the warranty period, with sufficient postage, tak- ing the appropriate packaging and shipping guidelines into account. Please note that your product (de- pending on the model) will be free of all operating materials when returned for safety reasons. The product sent to our service centre must be packaged in such a way that damage to the product under com- plaint is avoided during transport. After successful re- pair / replacement, we will send the product back to you free of charge. If products cannot be repaired or replaced, a sum up to the purchase price of the defec- tive product may be refunded at our own discretion, taking into account any deduction for wear and tear. These warranties are only for the benefit of the origi- nal private purchaser and cannot be assigned or transferred.

5. Extension of the warranty period to 10 years:

Scheppach offers an additional warranty extension of 5 years on products of the Scheppach 20V series. Thus, the warranty period for these products totals 10 years.
