e) Avoid abnormal working postures. Make
sure you stand squarely and keep your
balance at all times. This will enable you to
control the power tool better in unexpected
situations.

fi tting clothes or jewelry. Keep hair and
clothing away from moving parts. Loose
clothing, jewelry or long hair can be caught by
moving parts.
g) If dust extraction devices and dust
collection devices can be fi tted, they
must be connected and must be used
correctly. The use of a dust extractor can
reduce the dangers posed by dust.
h) Do not allow yourself to be lulled into a
false sense of security and do not ignore
the safety regulations covering electric
power tools, even if you are familiar with
the power tool after having used it many
times. Carelessness can lead to serious
injuries in just a fraction of a second.

correct electric tool for the job in hand.
The correct tool will enable you to work
better and more safely within the specifi c

making any adjustments to the tool,
changing plug-in tool parts or putting the
power tool down. These precautions will
prevent the power tool starting accidentally.
d) Keep unused electric tools out of the
reach of children. Do not allow people
who are not familiar with the power tool
or who have not read these instructions
to use the power tool. Electric tools are
dangerous if they are used by inexperienced
people.
e) Look after power tools and plug-in tools
with care. Check that moving parts
function correctly and do not jam, and
whether any parts are broken or damaged
such that they adversely aff ect the
function of the power tool. Have damaged
parts repaired before you use the power
tool. Many accidents are caused by poorly
maintained electric tools.

f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Carefully maintained cutting tools with sharp
cutting edges will jam less and are easier to
control.
g) Use the power tool, plug-in tools, etc.
as set out in these instructions. Take
account of the conditions in your work
area and the job at hand. Using electric
tools for purposes other than the one for
which they are designed can result in
dangerous situations.
h) Keep the handles and grip surfaces dry,
clean and free from oil and grease. If the
handles and grip surfaces are slippery, it will
not be possible to operate and control the
power tool safely in unforeseen situations.
5. Service
a) Have your power tool repaired only by
trained personnel using only genuine
spare parts. This will ensure that your power
tool remains safe to use.

•
Keep all parts of the body away from the
cutter blades. Do not remove cut material
or hold material to be cut when blades
are moving. Make sure the switch is off
when clearing jammed material. A moment
of inattention while operating the hedge
