Guards
Shield
The transparent shield protects your hands and
allows you to cut the hedge perfectly with a good
view of the cutting area.
Impact guard
The projecting guide rail protects you against
unpleasant impacts, e.g. recoil torque of the cutter,
when striking a solid object (wall, ground, etc.).
Two-hand safety circuit
The hedge trimmer is switched on and operated with
both hands. One hand operates the On/Off switch
, the second hand the switch lever on the front
handle
. If you release one of the two switches,
the cutter automatically stops.
Protective gear element
Immediately switch off the hedge trimmer and remove
the battery if solid objects become jammed in the
cutter. When the hedge trimmer has stopped, remove
the jammed object before continuing to work with
the hedge trimmer. The hedge trimmer features
an overload safety device which protects the gears
from mechanical damage if the cutter is blocked.
