5.
Maintain power tools and accessories. Check
for misalignment or binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts and any other condition that
may affect the power tool's operation. If dam-
aged, have the power tool repaired before use.
Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained
power tools.
6.
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges
are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
7.
Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits
etc. in accordance with these instructions, tak-
ing into account the working conditions and
the work to be performed. Use of the power tool
for operations different from those intended could
result in a hazardous situation.
8.
Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry,
clean and free from oil and grease. Slippery
handles and grasping surfaces do not allow for
safe handling and control of the tool in unexpected
situations.
9.
When using the tool, do not wear cloth work
gloves which may be entangled. The entangle-
ment of cloth work gloves in the moving parts may
result in personal injury.
Battery tool use and care
Recharge only with the charger specified by
1.
the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for
one type of battery pack may create a risk of fire
when used with another battery pack.
2.
Use power tools only with specifically desig-
nated battery packs. Use of any other battery
packs may create a risk of injury and fire.
3.
When battery pack is not in use, keep it away
from other metal objects, like paper clips,
coins, keys, nails, screws or other small metal
objects, that can make a connection from one
terminal to another. Shorting the battery termi-
nals together may cause burns or a fire.
4.
Under abusive conditions, liquid may be
ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If con-
tact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If
liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical
help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause
irritation or burns.
Do not use a battery pack or tool that is dam-
5.
aged or modified. Damaged or modified batteries
may exhibit unpredictable behaviour resulting in
fire, explosion or risk of injury.
6.
Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire or
excessive temperature. Exposure to fire or tem-
perature above 130 °C may cause explosion.
Follow all charging instructions and do not
7.
charge the battery pack or tool outside the
temperature range specified in the instruc-
tions. Charging improperly or at temperatures
outside the specified range may damage the
battery and increase the risk of fire.
Service
1.
Have your power tool serviced by a qualified
repair person using only identical replacement
parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power
tool is maintained.
2.
Never service damaged battery packs. Service
of battery packs should only be performed by the
manufacturer or authorized service providers.
3.
Follow instruction for lubricating and chang-
ing accessories.
Cordless Pole Hedge Trimmer
Safety Warnings
1.
Keep all parts of the body away from the blade.
Do not remove cut material or hold material
to be cut when blades are moving. Blades
continue to move after the switch is turned off. A
moment of inattention while operating the hedge
trimmer may result in serious personal injury.
Carry the hedge trimmer by the handle with the
2.
blade stopped and taking care not to operate
any power switch. Proper carrying of the hedge
trimmer will decrease the risk of inadvertent start-
ing and resultant personal injury from the blades.
3.
When transporting or storing the hedge trim-
mer, always fit the blade cover. Proper handling
of the hedge trimmer will decrease the risk of
personal injury from the blades.
4.
When clearing jammed material or servicing
the unit, make sure all power switches are off
and the battery pack is removed or discon-
nected. Unexpected actuation of the hedge trim-
mer while clearing jammed material or servicing
may result in serious personal injury.
Hold the hedge trimmer by insulated gripping
5.
surfaces only, because the blade may contact
hidden wiring. Blades contacting a "live" wire
may make exposed metal parts of the hedge trim-
mer "live" and could give the operator an electric
shock.
6.
Keep all power cords and cables away from
cutting area. Power cords or cables may be hid-
den in hedges or bushes and can be accidentally
cut by the blade.
7.
Do not use the hedge trimmer in bad weather
conditions, especially when there is a risk of
lightning. This decreases the risk of being struck
by lightning.
8.
To reduce the risk of electrocution, never use
the pole hedge trimmer near any electrical
power lines. Contact with or use near power lines
may cause serious injury or electric shock result-
ing in death.
9.
Always use two hands when operating the pole
hedge trimmer. Hold the pole hedge trimmer with
both hands to avoid loss of control.
10. Always use head protection when operating
the pole hedge trimmer overhead. Falling debris
can result in serious personal injury.
