SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS - POLE HEDGE TRIMMER
Keep all parts of the body in safe distance from the
knife.Do not try to remove the material being cut or
hold material to be cut when the knife is running.
Jammed cuttings to be removed only when the
machine is off and the battery taken out. A moment of
inattention when using the hedge trimmer may result in
serious injuries.
Carry the hedge trimmer by the handle when the
knife is off. Fit the protective cover whenever the
hedge trimmer is to be transported or stored. Careful
treatment with the appliance reduces the risk of injury by
the blade. Hold the power tools by the insulated handles
as the cutting knife may come into contact with hidden
cables/lines. Contact of the cutting knife with a live con-
ductor may bring the metal parts of the appliance under
voltage and cause electric shock.
WARNING
The powertool has a large range. In order to reduce the
risk of personal or even fata linjury to bystanders from
falling objects or inadvertent contact with the moving
cutter blades of your powertool always keep by standers
at least 50 feet (15 m) away when the powertool is
running.
Before you start work, examine the work area for stones,
fence wire, metal or other solid objects which could
damage the cutter blades. Take particular care when
cutting next to wire fences. Do not touch the wire with
the cutting blades. When working close to the ground,
make sure that no sand, grit or stones get between the
cutter bladers.

configuration increases the risk of personal injury and
should never be done.
