3 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

3.1 General Power Tool Safety Warnings

AL-KO HT 2000 - General Power Tool Safety Warnings - 1

WARNING!

Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and specifications provided with this power tool.

Failure to follow all instructions 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-operated (cordless) power tool.

3.1.1 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.

3.1.2 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 surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. 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 electric shock.
- Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges and moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
■ When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for out-

door use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.

If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.

3.1.3 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. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
■ Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
■ 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 energising power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
■ 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 injury.
- Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
■ Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. 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 extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
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.

3.1.4 Power tool use and care

  • 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.
  • Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn 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 remove the battery pack, if detachable, from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, 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 misalignment 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 maintained 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 account the working conditions and the work to be performed. 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 handles and grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling and control of the tool in unexpected situations.

3.1.5 Battery tool use and care

■ Recharge only with the charger specified by the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with another battery pack.

■ Use power tools only with specifically designated battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.
- When battery pack is not in use, keep it 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 or a fire.
■ Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery 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 of injury.
- Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire or excessive 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 of fire.

3.1.6 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 battery packs should only be performed by the manufacturer or authorized service providers.

3.2 Hedge trimmer safety warnings

  • Keep all parts of the body away from the cutter blade. Do not remove cut material or hold material to be cut when blades are moving. Make sure the switch is off when clearing jammed material. A moment of in-attention while operating the hedge trimmer may result in serious personal injury.
  • Carry the hedge trimmer by the handle with the cutter blade stopped. When

transporting or storing the hedge trimmer always fit the cutting device cover. Proper handling of the hedge trimmer will reduce possible personal injury from the cutter blades.

- Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces only, because the cutter blade may contact hidden wiring. Cutter blades contacting a “live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and could give the operator an electric shock.

3.3 Vibration load

■ Danger due to vibration

The actual magnitude of the vibration emissions during the use of the appliance may deviate from that stated by the manufacturer. Observe the following influencing factors before or during use:

Is the appliance being used as intended?
Is the material being cut or processed in the proper manner?
Is the appliance in a proper condition of use?
Is the cutting tool properly sharpened or is the correct cutting tool installed?
Are the handle grips and any optional vibration grips mounted, and are they firmly attached to the appliance?

■ Only operate the tool at the motor speed required for the respective work. Avoid using the maximum speed in order to reduce noise and vibrations.

The noise and vibrations of the tool may increase due to improper use and maintenance. This leads to health damage. In this case, immediately switch off the tool and have it repaired by an authorised service workshop.

The degree of stress due to vibration depends on the work to be performed or on the use of the tool. Estimate the stress and plan appropriate work breaks. This considerably reduces stress due to vibration over the entire working time.

■ Extensive use of the tool exposes the operator to vibrations, which can lead to circulatory issues ("white fingers"). To avoid this risk, wear gloves and keep your hands warm. If any symptoms of "white fingers" occur, immediately consult a physician. These symptoms include: Numbness, loss of feeling, tingling, itching, pain, reduced muscular

strength, changes in the colour or condition of the skin. Normally these conditions affect the fingers, hands or pulse. The risk increases at low temperatures.

Take long breaks during your working day so you can recover from the noise and the vibrations. Plan your work in such a way that the use of appliances that generate strong vibrations is spread over several days.
If you notice an unpleasant sensation or discoloration of the skin on your hands when using the tool, stop work immediately. Take sufficient work breaks. Without sufficient breaks, a hand/arm vibration syndrome can occur.
- Minimise your risk of being exposed to vibrations. Maintain the tool according to the instructions in the operating instructions.
If the tool is used frequently, contact your dealer to purchase anti-vibration accessories (e.g. handles).
- Avoid working with the tool at temperatures below 10 °C. Define how the vibration load can be limited in a work plan.

3.4 Noise pollution

A certain level of noise exposure from this appliance is inevitable. Carry out noisy work at approved and specified time periods. Observe rest periods as necessary and restrict the duration of the work to a minimum. For your personal protection and protection of persons in the vicinity, appropriate hearing protection must be worn.

■ always work with the appliance from the ground and make sure that you are standing securely.
■ Heed the safety instructions.

  • Cut the hedge regularly and only at the permitted times.
    ■ Only cut off the thin branches and new growth on the surface of the hedge; do not cut too deep.
    ■ Always cut the two sides of a hedge first, followed by the top. This prevents cut material from falling into areas that you have not yet trimmed.
    Hedges should always be trimmed into a trapezoidal shape (tapering toward the top). This prevents the leaves on the lower branches from being shaded out (05).
    ■ Make sure the motor is stopped before you remove any cuttings.
    ■ When leaving/transporting the appliance:
    Switch off the tool.
  • Put on the blade guard.
    ■ Remove the battery.
    ■ After use, remove the battery and check the appliance for damage.

10 TRANSPORT

Before transporting, carry out the following measures:

  1. Switch off the appliance.
  2. Remove the rechargeable battery from the appliance.
  3. Pack the battery properly.

AL-KO HT 2000 - TRANSPORT - 1

NOTE

The nominal energy of the rechargeable battery is less than 100 Wh. Therefore, heed the following transport instructions.

The li-ion rechargeable battery contained in the appliance is subject to the hazardous goods law, but can be transported under simplified conditions:

The undamaged rechargeable battery can be transported on public roads by the private user without further conditions provided it is packaged for retail sale and the transport serves personal purposes. The weight limits for batteries sent separately must be observed:

Max. 30 kg total weight per package when transported by road, rail and water
No upper limit for air transport but max. 2 pieces per package

If damage to the battery (e.g. due to the appliance falling) is suspected, transport is not permissible.

■ Commercial users who carry out the transport in connection with their main activity (e.g. delivery from and to building sites, or demonstrations) can also take advantage of this simplification.

In both cases, it is essential to take the mandatory precautions mentioned above to prevent any leakage of the contents. In other cases, it is essential to comply with the regulations of the hazardous goods law. In the case of non-compliance, severe penalties can be imposed on the sender and possibly the transporter.

Additional notes on transport and shipment

■ Only transport or ship lithium-ion rechargeable batteries in an undamaged state.
- Secure the appliance in such a way as to prevent it from starting to operate inadvertently during transport.
- Secure the appliance with strong outer packaging (cardboard shipment box). Use the manufacturer's original packaging if possible.
■ Ensure correct identification and documentation of the consignment during transport or dispatch (e.g. by parcel or forwarding):

When transporting by road, rail and water, a warning sticker must be applied to the packaging when the battery/batteries accompany the appliance. No warning sticker is necessary if the battery/batteries are installed or fitted into the appliance, since the outer packaging/original

packaging must already comply with specific regulations.

A warning sticker must always be placed on the packaging when transporting by air. The maximum weight limits for batteries sent together with the appliance must be observed: max. 5 kg battery weight per package and max. 2 pieces per package, if the battery/batteries are accompanying the appliance.

■ Please find out in advance whether transport is possible with the selected service provider, and show your shipment.

We recommend involving a hazardous goods specialist in the preparation of the shipment. Please heed any other national regulations.

11 STORAGE

11.1 Storage of the appliance

  • Thoroughly clean the appliance and its accessories after each use and – if present – attach all covers.
    ■ Store the appliance in a dry place protected against frost.
  • Keep out of the reach of children and unauthorised persons.

11.2 Storing the rechargeable battery and charging unit

AL-KO HT 2000 - Storing the rechargeable battery and charging unit - 1

DANGER!

Danger of explosion and fire!

Persons will be fatally or severely injured if the rechargeable battery explodes because it was stored in front of naked flames or heat sources.

■ Store the rechargeable battery in cool and dry conditions, but not in front of naked flames or heat sources.

AL-KO HT 2000 - Danger of explosion and fire! - 1

NOTE

When charging, the rechargeable battery is protected from overcharging due to automatic detection of the charge status and thus can remain connected to the charging unit for some time, but not permanently.

■ Store the battery in a dry, frost-free place at the prescribed storage temperature (see operating instructions for the battery) and with a charge of approx. 40 - 60 %.
■ Due to a risk of short-circuit, do not store the battery near metallic or acid-containing objects.
■ Recharge the rechargeable battery for approx. 2 hours after approx. 6 months' storage.
