Check all nuts, bolts and screws at frequent 

intervals for proper tightness to ensure the 

product is in safe working condition. Any 

part that is damaged should be properly 

repaired or replaced by an authorised 

service centre. 

INTENDED USE 

The product is only intended for use 

outdoors. For safety reasons the product 

MUST be adequately controlled by using 

the two-handed operation. The product is 

designed for home or domestic use. It is 

intended to cut and trim hedges, shrubs 

and similar vegetation. 

It should be used in dry, well illuminated 

conditions. 

It is 

NOT intended to cut grass, trees or 

branches. It should not be used for any 

other purpose than hedge trimming. 

RESIDUAL RISK 

Even when the product is used as 

described, it is still impossible to completely 

eliminate certain residual risk factors. The 

following hazards may arise in use and the 

operator should pay special attention to 

avoid the following: 

1.

 

The blades cannot be guarded whilst 

cutting. Contact with the blades can 

cause serious injury. Keep the blade 

away from yourself and others. Cover it 

with the blade protector whenever you 

are not cutting. 

2.

 

Injury caused by vibration. Always use 

the right tool for the job, use 

designated handles and restrict working 

time and exposure. 

3.

 

Exposure to noise can cause hearing 

injury. Wear ear protection and limit 

exposure 

RISK REDUCTION 

It has been reported that vibrations from 

hand-held tools may contribute to a 

condition called Raynaud’s Syndrome in 

certain individuals. Symptoms may include 

tingling, numbness and blanching of the 

fingers, usually apparent upon exposure to 

cold. Hereditary factors, exposure to cold 

and dampness, diet, smoking and work 

practices are all thought to contribute to 

the development of these symptoms. There 

are measures that can be taken by the 

operator to possibly reduce the effects of 

vibration: 

1.

 

Keep your body warm in cold weather. 

When operating the unit wear gloves to 

keep the hands and wrists warm. It is 

reported that cold weather is a major 

factor contributing to Raynaud’s 

Syndrome. 

2.

 

After each period of operation, exercise 

to increase blood circulation. 

3.

 

Take frequent work breaks. Limit the 

amount of exposure per day. 

If you experience any of the symptoms of 

this condition, immediately stop use and 

see your doctor about these symptoms. 

WARNING:  

Injuries may be caused, or aggravated, by 

prolonged use of a tool. When using any 

tool for prolonged periods, ensure you 

take regular breaks. 

DANGER OF FIRE!  

Never charge batteries in the vicinity of 

acids or easily flammable materials. 

Charge battery only at a temperature bet-

ween 10 - 45 °C. After a heavy load, first 

allow the battery to cool. 

 DANGER OF EXPLOSION! 

Protect the device from direct exposure to 

heat and fire. 

Do not place on heating units or expose to 

strong sunlight for an extended period. 

Operate the device only at temperatures 

between -10 °C to + 45 °C.. 

 RISK OF SHORT CIRCUIT! 

For disposal, transport or storage, pack the 

battery in a plastic bag or a cardboard box, 

or isolate the contacts with adhesive tape. 

Do not open the battery pack. 

 

where they could get pinched or cut. 

NEVER 

touch blade or service unit unless the 

battery pack is removed.

 

Switch off and remove the battery pack off 

before:

 

1.

 

adjusting the working position of the 

cutting device

 

2.

 

cleaning or clearing a blockage

 

3.

 

leaving the product unattended

 

4.

 

checking, maintenance or working on 

the machine

 

Do not force the hedge trimmer through 

heavy shrubbery. This can cause the blades 

to bind and slow down. If the blades slow 

down, reduce the pace.

 

Do not attempt to cut stems or twigs that 

are larger than 16 mm thick, or those 

obviously too large to feed into the cutting 

blade. Use a non-powered hand saw or 

pruning saw to trim large stems.

 

Use of hearing protection reduces the 

ability to hear warnings (shouts or alarms). 

The operator must pay extra attention to 

what is going on in the working area.

 

WARNING:  

If the machine is dropped, suffers heavy 

impact or begins to vibrate abnormally, 

immediately stop the machine and inspect 

for damage or identify the cause of the 

vibration. Any damage should be properly 

repaired or replaced by an authorised 

service centre. 

TRANSPORTATION & STORAGE 

Stop the machine, remove the battery and 

allow both to cool before storing or 

transporting

 

Clean all foreign material from the product. 

Store it in a cool dry and well-ventilated 

place that is inaccessible to children. For 

extra safety, store the battery separately 

from the hedge trimmer. Keep away from 

corrosive agents such as garden chemicals 

and de-icing salts. Do not store outdoors.

 

Cover the blade with the blade protector 

before storing the unit, or during 

transportation.

 

For transportation, secure the machine 

against movement or falling to prevent 

injury to persons or damage to the 

machine.  

MAINTENANCE 

WARNING:  

Use only original manufacturer’s 

replacement parts, accessories and 

attachments. Failure to do so can cause 

possible injury, poor performance and may 

void your warranty. 

WARNING:  

Servicing requires extreme care and 

knowledge and should be performed only 

by a qualified service technician. For 

service we suggest you return the product 

to your nearest authorized service center 

for repair. When servicing, use only 

identical replacement parts. 

WARNING:  

The blades are extremely sharp. To 

prevent personal injury, exercise extreme 

caution when cleaning, lubricating and 

fitting or removing the blade protector. 

Remove the battery before adjusting, 

maintaining or cleaning. 

You may make adjustments and repairs 

described here. For other repairs, contact 

the authorised service agent. 

After each use, clean the body and handles 

of the product with a soft dry cloth. 

After each use, clean the debris from the 

blades with a stiff brush, and then carefully 

apply a rust preventative lubricant before 

refitting the blade protector. It is 

recommended you use a rust preventative 

and lubricant spray to apply an even 

distribution and reduce the risk of personal 

injury from contact with the blades. For 

information about suitable spray product, 

check with your local authorised service 

centre. You may wish to lubricate the 

blades lightly before use if necessary, using 

the above method.
