Read the directions for use carefully and observe the information provided. It is important to consult these instructions in order to acquaint yourself with the tool, its proper use and safety precautions.

Important! For safety reasons the cordless grass cutter is not to be used by children, young people under 16 years of age, or any other persons who are not acquainted with these directions for use.

The replaceable storage battery supplied with the tool is not charged. Before the tool can be used for the first time you must charge the battery.
The battery pack does not reach its maximum capacitance until it has been charged and discharged approximately five times.
- NC batteries lose their charge even when they are not being used. Regular charging is therefore recommended. Capacity losses can be compensated by using a timer to top-up the charge for 30 minutes every day.
- Please check the data marked on the rating plate of the battery charger. Connect the battery charger only to an identical mains supply to that on the rating plate.
In heavy use the battery will become warm. Allow it to cool to room temperature before commencing with the charging.

2. Safety information

Caution! Danger!

The blade will run on for a few seconds after the tool is switched off!

-Examine the tool each time before you use it. Do not use the tool if any safety devices and/or blades are damaged or worn. Never put safety devices out of operation.
- Use the tool only for the purpose specified in these instructions.
Do not wear loose garments, jewelry, etc. There is a risk of these items getting caught in the machine. Wear non-slip shoes and gloves. Wear long trousers to protect your legs.
Make sure there are no other persons (particularly children) or animals within your working area.
You are responsible for safety in your work area.
Inspect the items you want to cut before starting to work. Remove any foreign objects you find. Watch out for foreign objects while you work. If

GB

you still hit upon an obstacle while cutting, turn off the tool (let go of the ON button) and remove the obstacle.

If the blades become jammed, switch off the tool (let go of the ON button) and remove the obstruction (thick branch, foreign object) with a blunt item. Never use your fingers to clear an obstruction - the pre-loaded blades can cause serious injury.
- Examine the charging cable regularly for signs of damage and age (brittleness). Use only if it is in perfect condition.
Work only in good visibility.
Always make sure of your footing while working. Be careful when stepping backwards. Risk of stumbling!
- Never leave the tool unattended at your work place. If you interrupt your work, leave the tool in a safe place.
If you interrupt your work to move to a different position it is imperative to switch off the tool while you are moving there.
- Never use the tool in the rain or in moist or wet conditions.
- Protect your grass cutter from the damp and rain.
- Keep the battery charger and the grass cutter out of children's reach.
- Do not use the grass cutter or the battery charger in areas where there are vapors or combustible liquids.
- Never throw old batteries in the fire. Risk of explosion!
Used and defective batteries do not belong in the refuse bin. Think of the environment - cadmium is toxic. For proper disposal of used and defective batteries, send them postage-paid to ISC or take them to a special collecting station in your area. Ask at your local council offices for the nearest used battery collecting station.
- Avoid contact with leaky batteries. In case of contact, wash the affected area of skin immediately with water and soap. If battery acid gets in your eye, rinse out the eye with water for at least 10 minutes and consult a doctor at once.
- Protect the battery charger and cable from damage and sharp edges. Damaged cables are to be replaced without delay by an electrician.

3. Proper use

The AG 7.2 and AG 7.2 FG cordless grass cutters are designed for cutting the edges of lawns and small areas of grass in private and hobby gardens.

Tools for private and hobby gardens are not suitable for use in public facilities, parks and sport centers, along roadways, on farms or in the forestry sector.

For the tool to be used properly it is imperative to follow the instructions set out in the manufacturer's directions for use.

Important!

It is prohibited to use the tool to cut hedges or to chop material for composting because of the potential danger to persons and property.

6. Starting up

Charging the NC battery pack

1. Open the battery compartment lid and remove the battery pack from the handle.
2. Check that your mains voltage is the same as that marked on the rating plate of the battery charger. Connect the charging cable to the charging adapter and plug the battery charger in a socket-outlet. The green LED on the charging adapter comes on to indicate that charging voltage is available.
3. Insert the battery pack in the charging adapter. The red LED comes on to indicate that the battery is being charged. An empty battery requires a maximum charging period of 8 hours. The temperature of the battery may rise slightly during the charging operation. This is normal.

N.B.: There is no automatic switch-off when the battery is fully charged.

If the battery fails to charge, please check
- whether there is voltage at the socket-outlet
- whether there is good contact at the charging contacts of the battery charger.

If you still fail to charge the battery, please return

the power supply unit
the charging adaptorand the battery pack

to our Customer Service Center.

Timely recharging of the NC battery pack will help it serve you well for a long time. Recharging is always necessary when you notice a drop in the tool's performance.

Never allow the battery to become fully discharged. The results will be a defective NC battery pack!

Operation

First clear away any stones or other solid objects from where you want to cut. The safety lock-off prevents the cordless grass cutter being switched on accidentally. To switch on the tool you must first release the safety lock-off by sliding it forward. Then press the ON button. To switch off, simply let go of the ON button. When you have finished your work, slide the black blade guard over the blades.

GB

Cutting grass

Simply push the grass cutter on its wheels over the ground. This way you will always obtain a uniform height of cut.

The best results are achieved when the lawn is dry.

When you notice a drop in cutting performance, recharge the grass cutter immediately so that the battery does not become fully discharged.

Important!

It is prohibited to remove or bridge any of the switching elements installed on the tool by the manufacturer (e.g. by securing a button to the handle) as this would prevent the tool from switching off automatically and result in high risk of injury.

7. Fitting the long handle (applies only to the AG 7.2 FG)

No more bending or kneeling to cut the edges of lawns! With the plug-in telescopic handle (5) you can push the cordless grass cutter on wheels over the lawn from a comfortable standing position.

Simply slide the one tube inside the other and fasten together with the clamp coupling (6). Then use the 2 knurled screws (7) to fix the telescopic handle to the integral handle of the cordless grass cutter.

8. Maintenance and cleaning

To achieve good results you should keep the blades sharp at all times. In particular we recommend that you immediately level oil any jags or ridges caused by stones or the like. The tool should be thoroughly cleaned both before and after use. A few drops of oil (e.g., sewing machine oil) will improve the cutting performance of the blades, but never apply any grease to the blades. To ensure constant exact cutting it is also important to remove grass remnants and dirt from between the upper and lower blade.

Important!

Never clean the tool under running water - and particularly never with high pressure - because of the potential danger to persons and property. Keep your cordless grass cutter in a dry and frost-proof place. Choose a place that children are unable to enter.

9. Troubleshooting

The tool does not cut cleanly:

Check the blades and replace them if necessary.

In case of any other faults, please contact the ISCI Customer Service Center.
