Charging Guide
Please charge before use.
Charge-control indicator will flash red if:
– Charger is damaged
– Incorrect charger is installed
The tool has overload protection software. If the software is
activated, the tool will lock to prevent damage. To reset the
protection software, connect the charger. Before re-use, we
recommend to fully charge the tool until the charge-control
indicator is continuously green.
Operation
Unlocking (see figure B1)
Deactivate the safety lock
(6)
by pushing it back. The tool
will open and is now ready for use.
Locking
After usage, close the handles and engage the safety lock
(6)
by pushing it forward. Always keep in locked position, when
not in use.
Gripping position (see figures B2–B4)
Grip the tool at the front, as shown. Do not grip the tool to-
wards the back of the handles or with finger(s) between the
handles.
Power-assisted cutting (see figure B)
This tool provides power-assisted cutting. It is operated like
a pair of manual secateurs and will cut in manual mode
without power-assisted cutting until a certain branch dia-
meter is reached. The tool will start power-assisted cutting
when cutting above this branch diameter by starting the in-
tegrated motor. Noise development while power-assisted
cutting is active, is normal.
Power-assist feature is only active as long as gripping force
is exerted on the handles.
If no force is exerted onto the
handles, the tool stops.
Working Advice
Pruning tips (see figures C1–C10)
Never operate the tool in an awkward posture.
This may
cause serious injury.
Keep your free hand away from the cutting area. Never
touch the blades.
They are very sharp and you may cut
yourself.
C1
Always wear protective gloves while pruning.
C2
Never cut too close to the stem so the wound can
heal properly.
C3
Always make the cut about 8 mm from the bud.
C4
The cut should slope away from the bud so the rain
can run off.
C5
If you remove an entire stem, cut back to the point
where it branched.
C6
Never push the blade of the pruner into the ground to
cut root suckers.
C7
Cut branches one by one as shown.
C8
Remove overcrowds or crossing stems.
C9
Remove thin or weak growth.
C10
Always remove dead, damaged and diseased
branches.
