Specic Safety Warnings for Hedge
Trimmer/Pole Hedge Trimmer
1. Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning
the power tool on. A wrench or key left attached to the
rotating part of the power tool may result in personal
injury.
2. If devices or facilities are available for the extraction and
collection of dust, ensure these are connected or properly
used. Use of these devices can reduce dust related
hazards.
3. Remove any blade that has been damaged. Always make
sure that the blade is installed correctly and securely
fastened before each use. Failure to do so can cause
serious injury.
4. Hold the pole hedge trimmer by insulated gripping
surfaces only, because the cutter blade may contact
hidden wiring or its own cord. Cutter blades contacting a
"live" wire may electrify exposed metal parts of the power
tool and could give the operator an electric shock.
5. Maintain a rm grip on both handles while cutting with the
blade. Keep the blade away from body.
6. Hold pole hedge trimmer properly, e.g., with both hands
if two handles are provided. Loss of control can cause
personal injury.
7. Keep extension cord away from cutting area. During
operation the extension cord may be hidden in shrubs and
can be accidentally cut by the blade.
8. Check the hedge for foreign objects before operation,
e.g., center fences. Take care that the cutting device does
not come in contact with wire or other metal objects.
9. Keep all parts of the body away from the cutting blade.
Do not remove cut material or hold material to be cut
when blades are moving. Make sure the switch is o when
clearing jammed material. A moment of inattention while
operating the pole hedge trimmer may result in serious
personal injury.
10. Carry the hedge trimmer by the handle with the cutting
blade stopped. When transporting or storing the hedge
trimmer always keep the blade covered. Proper handling
of the hedge trimmer will reduce possible personal injury
from the cutter blades.
11. Do not use the hedge trimmer if the switch does not turn it
on and o. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with
the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
12. Use the pole hedge trimmer and accessories in
accordance with these instructions, taking into account
the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use
of the power tool for operations dierent from intended
use could lead to a hazardous situation.
13. The product should be supplied via a residual current
device (RCD) with a tripping current of not more than
30 mA.
