Makita BUH481 Instruction Manual page 5

The declared vibration emission value has been
•
measured in accordance with the standard test
method and may be used for comparing one tool
with another.
The declared vibration emission value may also be
•
used in a preliminary assessment of exposure.
WARNING:
The vibration emission during actual use of the
•
power tool can differ from the declared emission
value depending on the ways in which the tool is
used.
Be sure to identify safety measures to protect the
•
operator that are based on an estimation of
exposure in the actual conditions of use (taking
account of all parts of the operating cycle such as
the times when the tool is switched off and when it
is running idle in addition to the trigger time).

CORDLESS HEDGE TRIMMER
SAFETY WARNINGS
1. Keep all parts of the body away from the
cutter blade. Do not remove cut material or
hold material to be cut when blades are
moving. Make sure the switch is off when
clearing jammed
inattention while operating the hedge trimmer
may result in serious personal injury.
2. Carry the hedge trimmer by the handle with
the cutter blade stopped. When transporting
or storing the hedge trimmer always fit the
cutting device cover. Proper handling of the
hedge trimmer will reduce possible personal
injury from the cutter blades.
3. Hold the power tool by insulated gripping
surfaces only, because the cutter blade may
contact hidden wiring. Cutter blades contacting
a "live" wire may make exposed metal parts of the
power tool "live" and could give the operator an
electric shock.
4. Do not use the hedge trimmer in the rain or in wet
or very damp conditions. The electric motor is not
waterproof.
5. First-time users should have an experienced hedge
trimmer user show them how to use the trimmer.
6. The hedge trimmer must not be used by children
or young persons under 18 years of age. Young
