* The actual runtime under load of a fully charged battery depends on how you work and on the load put on the trimmer during operation.

Noise and vibration values have been determined according to the standards and regulations mentioned in the declaration of conformity.

Technical and optical changes may be undertaken in the course of further development without notice. All dimensions, references and information in this instruction manual are therefore not guaranteed. Legal claims made on the basis of the instruction manual can therefore not be considered as valid.

The stated vibration emission value was measured in accordance with a standard testing procedure and may be used to compare one power tool to another.

The stated vibration emission value may also be used for a preliminary exposure assessment.

Warning:

ribration emission value may differ during actual use of the power tool from the stated value depending on the manner in which the power tool is used.

Safety precautions aimed at pro- tecting the user should be based on estimated exposure under actual usage conditions (all parts of the operating cycle are to be considered, including, for example, times during which the power tool is turned off and times when the tool is turned on but is running idle).

General safety instructions for power tools

WARNING! Read all safety directions and instructions. Omissions in the compliance with safety directions and instructions can cause electrical shock, fire and/or severe injuries.

Retain all safety directions and instructions for future use.

The term "Power Tools" used in the safety instructions refers to mains-operated power tools (with power cord) and to battery-operated power tools (without power cord).

1) WORK AREA SAFETY

a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.

b) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of fl ammable liquids,

GB

gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
c) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Dis-tractions can cause you to lose control.
2) ELECTRICAL SAFETY
a) 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.
b) 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.
c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
d) 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 or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
f) If operation of the electric device in a damp environment is inevitable, please use a fault-current circuit breaker. The use of a fault-current circuit breaker reduces the risk of electrocution.

3) PERSONAL SAFETY

Please note that children, individuals with limited physical, sensory or mental capabilities, those with insufficient experience or knowledge or individuals who are not familiar with the instructions must never be permitted to use the machine. Local regulations may specify an age restriction for the user.

a) 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 white operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
b) 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.
c) 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.
d) 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.
e) Do not overreach. 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 jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves 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 collection can reduce dust-related hazards.

.h) Never let children or persons who are unfamiliar with these instructions use the machine.

i) Stop using the machine when persons – especially children – or pets are nearby.

j) Use the machine only in daylight or with good artificial lighting.

k) Always keep your hands and feet away from the cutting equipment, especially while starting the engine.

I) Never install metallic cutting elements.

m) Prior to commissioning and after any impact, check for signs of wear and damages, and have any necessary repairs performed.

n) Never use the machine with damaged or missing protective equipment.

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 controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.

c) Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack from the power tool

• before making any adjust -ments, changing accessories, or storing power tools.
• whenever the user no longer remains in the vicinity of the machine.
• before the removal of blockages.
• before checking, cleaning or working on the machine.
• • after touching a foreign body in order to check the machine for damage.
• for an immediate check if the machine begins to vibrate excessively.

Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.

d) 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.

e) Maintain power tools. 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.

f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.

g) 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.

GB

5) CAREFUL HANDLING AND USE OF BATTERY DEVICES

a) Charge the batteries only in chargers that are recommended by the manufacturer. Risk of fire if a charger that is suitable for a specific type of battery is used with other batteries.
b) In the power tools, use only the batteries designed for the purpose. The use of other batteries may result in injuries and risk of fire.
c) Keep the unused battery away from paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws and other small metal objects, which could cause bridging of the contacts. A short circuit between the battery contacts may cause burns or fire.
d) If used incorrectly, liquid may leak from the battery. Avoid contact with this. In the event of accidental contact, rinse off with water. If the liquid gets into eyes, seek medical assistance. Leaking battery fluid may cause skin irritations or burns.

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.

Special Safety Directions

1) SPECIAL SAFETY DIRECTIONS FOR HEDGE TRIMMERS

If the blades are blocked by solid objects, the indicator flashes red on the display (C 16) and an audible warning sound is heard.

• Turn off the device immediately
• Remove the battery
• Then remove the object.
• Avoid over-stressing the device while working.

Cutting Techniques

• Cut thick branches beforehand using a branch clippers.
• The double-sided cutter bar enables cutting in both directions or, with a swinging action, from one side to the other.
• In case of vertical cutting, move the hedge trimmer uniformly forward or up and down in an arc movement.
• In case of horizontal cutting, move the hedge trimmer in a sickle-shaped movement to the edge of the hedge, so that cut branches fall to the ground.
• In order to achieve long straight lines, the placing of tensioned guiding cords is recommended.

Cutting Shaped Hedges:

It is recommended that hedges be cut in a trapezoidal shape, in order to prevent stripping off of the lower branches. This corresponds to the natural plant growth and al-

GB

lows the hedge to thrive optimally. During cutting, only the new annual growths are reduced and thus a dense branching and a good screen will develop.

• Cut the sides of a hedge first. To do this, move the hedge trimmer in the direction of growth from bottom to top. If you cut down from the top, the thinner branches will move out, which may result in some areas having sparse growth or holes.
• Cut the top edge, according to taste, in a flat shape, roof shape or rounded shape
• Trim young plants to the required shape. The main growth should remain undamaged until the hedge has reached the planned height. All other shoots are lopped off to half size.

Care of Free-Growing Hedges:

Free-growing hedges are not shaped when cut, although they must be regularly maintained so the hedge does not become too high.

Cleaning and Maintenance

Repair and servicing work not described in this manual should always be carried by our Service Centre. Use only original parts.
