6) Service
a) Have your machine serviced by a qualified repair person using only
identical replacement parts.
This will ensure that the safety of the machine is maintained.
b) Never service damaged battery packs. Service of battery packs should
only be performed by the manufacturer or authorised service providers.
National regulation can restrict the use of the lopper.
Daily inspect before use and after dropping or other impacts in order to identify
any significant damage or defects.
1.2.2 Lopper safety warnings:
a) Keep all parts of the body away from the blade. Do not remove cut
material or hold material to be cut when blade is moving. Blades con-
tinue to move after the switch is turned off. A moment of inattention while
operating the lopper may result in serious personal injury.
b) Carry the lopper by the handle with the blade stopped and taking care
not to operate any power switch. Proper carrying of the lopper will decrease
the risk of inadvertent starting and resultant personal injury from the blades.
c) When transporting or storing the lopper, always fit the blade cover.
Proper handling of the lopper will decrease the risk of personal injury from the
blades.
d) When clearing jammed material or servicing the unit, make sure all
power switches are off and the battery pack is removed or disconnected.
Unexpected actuation of the lopper while clearing jammed material or servicing
may result in serious personal injury.
e) When clearing jammed material or servicing the unit, make sure all
power switches are off and the lock-off is in the locked position.
Unexpected actuation of the lopper while clearing jammed material or servicing
may result in serious personal injury.
f) Hold the lopper by insulated gripping surfaces only, because the blade
may contact hidden wiring.
Blades contacting a "live" wire may make exposed metal parts of the lopper "live"
and could give the operator an electric shock.
g) Keep all power cords and cables away from cutting area.
Power cords or cables may be hidden in hedges or bushes and can be
accidentally cut by the blade.
h) Do not use the lopper in bad weather conditions, especially when
there is a risk of lightning. This decreases the risk of being struck by lightning.
1.2.3 Extended-reach lopper safety warnings:
a) To reduce the risk of electrocution, never use the extended-reach lop-
per near any electrical power lines. Contact with or use near power lines may
cause serious injury or electric shock resulting in death.
b) Always use two hands when operating the extended-reach lopper.
Hold the extended-reach lopper with both hands to avoid loss of control.
c) Always use head protection when operating the extended-reach
lopper overhead. Falling debris can result in serious personal injury.
v Search hedges and bushes for hidden objects (e.g. wire fences and hidden
wires).
v Use a residual current device (RCD) with a trip current of 30 mA or less.
v Hold the lopper with both hands on both handles.
v When in use, stand on the floor and not on a ladder or other unstable surface.
v Before using the lopper, make sure that the locking devices of all moving
parts (e.g. the extended shaft and the pivot element) are in the locked position.

v
Do not expose the charger to rain or wet conditions.
Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
v Keep the charger clean. Dirt poses a risk of electric shock.
v Always check the charger, cable and plug before use. Stop using the
charger if you discover any damage. Do not open the charger yourself,
and have it repaired only by a qualified specialist using only original
replacement parts.
Damaged chargers, cables and plugs increase the risk of electric shock.
v Do not operate the charger on an easily ignited surface (e. g. paper,
textiles, etc.) or in a flammable environment.
There is a risk of fire due to the charger heating up during operation.
v In order to avoid safety hazards, if the power supply cord needs to be
replaced, this must be done by GARDENA or by a customer service centre
that is authorised to repair GARDENA power tools.
v Do not operate the product while it is charging.
Products sold in GB only: Your product is fitted with an BS 1363/A approved
electric plug with internal fuse (ASTA approved to BS 1362). If the plug is not
suitable for your socket outlets, it should be cut off and an appropriate plug fitted
in its place by an authorised customer service agent. The replacement plug
should have the same fuse rating as the original plug. The severed plug must be
disposed of to avoid a possible shock hazard and should never be inserted into
a mains socket elsewhere.
v These safety warnings apply only for 18V Li-ion rechargeable batteries
for the POWER FOR ALL system.
v Use the rechargeable battery only with products from POWER FOR
ALL System partners. 18V rechargeable batteries labelled with POWER FOR
ALL are fully compatible with the following products: All 18 V products from

your product.
Only this way can the rechargeable battery and the product be operated without
danger and the rechargeable batteries protected from hazardous overloading.
v Only charge the batteries using chargers recommended by the
manufacturer or by POWER FOR ALL system partners.
A charger that is suitable for one type of battery pack may pose a fire risk
when used with different batteries (Battery type: PBA 18V... / compatible
chargers: AL 18...).
v The battery is supplied partially charged.
To ensure full battery capacity, fully charge the battery in the charger before using
your power tool for the first time.

contact accidentally occurs, rinse off with water. If the liquid comes into
contact with your eyes, seek additional medical attention.
Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.
v If the battery is damaged liquid can be ejected and cover nearby sur-
faces. Check affected parts. Clean these parts or change them if necessary.
v Do not short-circuit the battery pack. When the 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 terminals together may cause burns or a fire.
v The battery contacts can be hot after use. Be careful of the hot
contacts when remove the battery.
v The battery can be damaged by pointed objects such as nails or
screwdrivers or by force applied externally. An internal short circuit may
occur, causing the battery to burn, smoke, explode or overheat.
