General Power Tool Safety Warnings

⚠ WARNING! Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and specifica-

tions provided with this power tool. Fail- ure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious in- jury. 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.

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 flammable liquids, 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. Distractions 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 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. PERSONAL SAFETY

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 while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
b) Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as a 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 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 collection 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 controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.

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 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 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.

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.

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. SERVICE

a) 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.

Hedge trimmer safety warnings

a. 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.

b. 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.

c. Wear ear protection. Adequate protective equipment will reduce the risk of hearing loss.

d. Hold the hedge trimmer by insulated gripping surfaces 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.

e. 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.

f. When clearing jammed material or servicing the headge trimmer, 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.

g. 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.

h. 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.

Extended-reach hedge trimmer safety warnings

a. Always use head protection when operating the extended-reach hedge trimmer overhead. Falling debris can result in serious personal injury.

b. Always use two hands when operating the extended-reach hedge trimmer.

Hold the extended-reach hedge trimmer with both hands to avoid loss of control.

c. To reduce the risk of electrocution, never use the extended-reach hedge trimmer near any electrical power lines. Contact with or use near power lines may cause serious injury or electric shock resulting in death.

• NOTICE! Damage to the safety cutter bar (1). While cutting, make sure that you do not touch any objects, such as wire fences or plant supports.

• Check the device before each use for obvious defects such as loose, worn or damaged parts.

• Always wear sturdy shoes, long trousers, ear protection, work gloves and protective goggles when operating the device.

• The device is only intended for work where you are standing on the ground and not on a ladder or other unstable surface.
• The on/off switch and the safety switch must not be locked. The engine must be switched off when the switch has been released.
• Do not use the device if a switch is damaged.
• If the safety cutter bar (1) is obstructed by solid objects, switch off the device immediately, disconnect the mains plug. Only then should you remove the object.
• Always work in a direction away from the power outlet. This means you need to determine the cutting direction before starting work. Ensure that the extension cable is not within the working range. Never place the power cord (18) over the hedge where it can easily be caught by the safety cutter bar (1).
• NOTICE! Do not attempt to turn the insulated grip surfaces (28) as this may damage the device. To turn the handle, see "Adjusting the handle, p. 26".

Cutting techniques

• Cut out thick branches in advance using lopping shears.
• The double-sided safety cutter bar (1) enables trimming in both directions, or via pendulum movements from one side to the other.
• When cutting vertically, move the hedge trimmer in a steady forward motion, or up and down in an arch-shaped motion.
• When cutting horizontally, move the hedge trimmer in a sickle-shaped motion to the edge of the hedge so that cut branches fall to the ground.
• We recommend tying cords to achieve long, straight lines.

Trimming shaped hedges

It is advisable to trim hedges in a trapezoidal shape to prevent the lower branches from becoming bare. This corresponds to the plant's natural growth and allows hedges to thrive optimally. Only the new annual shoots are reduced during cutting to allow dense branching and good protection of privacy.

1. First trim the sides of the hedge. To do so, move the hedge trimmer from bottom to top in the direction of growth. If you cut downwards, thinner branches will move outwards which may cause thin patches or gaps.
2. Then trim the top edge as desired: straight, pitch-shaped or round.
3. Trim plants while young to achieve the desired shape. The main shoot should be left intact until the hedge has achieved the intended height. All other shoots are to be cut in half.

Cutting free-growing hedges

Free-growing hedges are not be trimmed into shapes but still need to be regularly cut to ensure they do not become too tall.

NOTICE! Please also observe the illustrations on the fold-out page on how to use the device.

NOTICE! Damage to the safety cutter bar (1). While cutting, make sure that you do not touch any objects, such as wire fences or plant supports.

Service

Guarantee

Dear Customer,

This product is provided with a 3 year guarantee from the date of purchase. In case of defects, you have statutory rights against the seller of the product. These statutory rights are not restricted by our guarantee presented below.

Terms of Guarantee

The guarantee period begins on the date of purchase. Please retain the original receipt. This document is required as proof of purchase. If a material or manufacturing defect occurs within three years of the date of purchase of this product, we will repair or replace – at our choice – the product for you free of charge. This guarantee requires the defective product and proof of purchase to be presented within the three-year period with a brief written description of what constitutes the defect and when it occurred. If the defect is covered by our guarantee, you will receive either the repaired product or a new product. No new guarantee period begins on repair or replacement of the product.

Guarantee Period and Statutory Claims for Defects

The guarantee period is not extended by the guarantee service. This also applies for replaced or repaired parts. Any damages and defects already present at the time of purchase must be reported immediately after unpacking. Repairs arising after expiry of the guarantee period are chargeable.

Guarantee Cover

The product has been carefully produced in accordance with strict quality guidelines and conscientiously checked prior to delivery.

The guarantee applies for all material and manufacturing defects. This guarantee does not extend to cover product parts that are subject to normal wear and may therefore be considered as wearing parts (e.g. Safety cutter bar) or to cover damage to breakable parts.

This guarantee shall be invalid if the product has been damaged, used incorrectly or not maintained. Precise adherence to all of the instructions specified in the operating manual is required for proper use of the product. Intended uses and actions against which the operating manual advises or warns must be categorically avoided.

The product is designed only for private and not commercial use. The guarantee will be invalidated in case of misuse or improper handling, use of force, or interventions not undertaken by our authorised service branch.
