Noise information: Measured values determined according to EN
62841.
Typically, the A-weighted noise levels of the tool are:
Sound pressure level / Uncertainty K
Sound power level / Uncertainty K
Always wear ear protectors!
Vibration information: Total vibration values (vector sum in the
three axes) determined according to EN 62841.
Vibration emission value a / Uncertainty K
h
Vibration front handle
Vibration rear handle
For technical data and approvals of application heads for use on various powerbases please refer to the operating instructions of the used
application head.
WARNING!
The vibration and noise emission level given in this information sheet has been measured in accordance with a standardized test given in EN
62841 and may be used to compare one tool with another. It may be used for a preliminary assessment of exposure.
The declared vibration and noise emission level represents the main applications of the tool. However if the tool is used for diff erent
applications, with diff erent accessories or poorly maintained, the vibration and noise emission may diff er. This may signifi cantly increase the
exposure level over the total working period.
An estimation of the level of exposure to vibration and noise should also take into account the times when the tool is switched off or when it is
running but not actually doing the job. This may signifi cantly reduce the exposure level over the total working period.
Identify additional safety measures to protect the operator from the eff ects of vibration and/or noise such as: maintain the tool and the
accessories, keep the hands warm, organization of work patterns.
WARNING
Read all safety warnings, instructions,
illustrations and specifi cations provided with this power tool.
Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric
shock, fi re and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
CORDLESS HEDGE TRIMMER SAFETY WARNINGS
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.
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.
Wear ear protection. Adequate protective equipment will reduce
the risk of hearing loss.
Hold the hedge trimmer by insulated gripping surfaces only,
because the blade may contact hidden wiring. Blades contacting
a "live" wire may make exposed metal parts of the hedge trimmer
"live" and could give the operator an electric shock.
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.
When clearing jammed material or servicing the hedge trimmer,
make sure all power switches are off and the battery pack is
removed or disconnected. Unexpected actuation of the hedge
trimmer while clearing jammed material or servicing may result in
serious personal injury.
Carry the hedge trimmer by the handle with the blade stopped
and taking care not to operate any power switch. Proper carrying
of the hedge trimmer will decrease the risk of inadvertent starting
and resultant personal injury from the blades.
When transporting or storing the hedge trimmer, always use the
blade cover. Proper handling of the hedge trimmer will decrease the
risk of personal injury from the blades.
Always use head protection when operating the extended-reach
hedge trimmer overhead. Falling debris can result in serious
personal injury.
Always use two hands when operating the extended-reach
hedge trimmer. Hold the extended-reach hedge trimmer with both
ENGLISH
hands to avoid loss of control.
To reduce the risk of electrocution, never use the extended-
reach hedge trimmer near any electrical power lines. Contact
with or use near power lines may cause serious injury or electric
shock resulting in death.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY WARNINGS
Never allow children, persons with reduced physical, sensory
or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge or
people unfamiliar with these instructions to use the machine, local
regulations may restrict the age of the operator.
Clear the work area before each use. Remove all objects, such
as cords, lights, wires, or strings which can be thrown or become
entangled in the cutting means.
Check the hedge for foreign objects, such as wire fences.
Never use the product near posts, fences, buildings, or other
immovable objects.
Beware of thrown objects; keep all bystanders, children, and pets at
least 15 m away from work area.
Do not operate in poor lighting. The operator requires a clear view of
the work area to identify potential hazards.
Inspect the product before each use. Check for loose fasteners,
etc. Make sure all guards and handles are properly and securely
attached. Replace any damaged parts before use. Check for battery
pack leaks.
Do not modify the product in any way.
Do not allow children or untrained individuals to use the product.
Wear full eye and hearing protection while operating the product.
If working in an area where there is a risk of falling objects, wear
appropiate head protection.
Secure long hair so it is above shoulder level to prevent
entanglement in moving parts.
Do not use the product when you are tired, ill, or under the
infl uenceof alcohol, drugs, or medication.
Keep fi rmfooting and balance. Do not overreach. Overreaching can
result in loss of balance.
Always keep proper footing and operate the hedge trimmer only
when standing on fi xed, secure and level surface. Slippery or
unstable surfaces may cause a loss of balance or control of the
hedge trimmer.
Before starting the product, make sure the cutting blades will not
come in contact with anything.
While operating the hedge trimmer, always hold it fi rmly with both
hands by the two handles. Ensure that the operating position is
safe and secure. The manufacturer does not recommend the use of
steps or ladders. If higher trimming is required, use an extended-
reach tool.
Blades are sharp. When handling the blade assembly, wear non-
slip, heavy duty protective gloves. Do not place your hand or fi ngers
between blades or in any position where they could get pinched or
cut. Never touch the blade nor service the product unless the battery
pack is removed.
Do not force the product through heavy shrubbery. This can cause
the blades to bind and slow down. If the blades slow down, reduce
the pace.
Do not attempt to cut stems or twigs that are larger than 19 mm, or
those obviously too large to feed into the cutting blade.
Use a non-powered hand saw or pruning saw to trim large stems.
Use of hearing protection reduces the ability to hear warnings
(shouts or alarms). The operator must pay extra attention to what is
going on in the working area.
WARNING! If the machine is dropped, suff ers heavy impact
or begins to vibrate abnormally, immediately stop the machine
and inspect for damage or identify the cause of the vibration.
Any damage should be properly repaired or replaced by an
MILWAUKEE service station.
Remove the battery pack before starting any work on the machine.
Do not dispose of used battery packs in the household refuse or by
burning them. Milwaukee Distributors off er to retrieve old batteries to
protect our environment.
Do not store the battery pack together with metal objects (short
circuit risk).
Use only System M18 chargers for charging System M18 battery
packs. Do not use battery packs from other systems.
Battery acid may leak from damaged batteries under extreme load
or extreme temperatures. In case of contact with battery acid wash
it off immediately with soap and water. In case of eye contact rinse
thoroughly for at least 10 minutes and immediately seek medical
attention.
Warning! To reduce the risk of fi re, personal injury, and product
damage due to a short circuit, never immerse your tool, battery pack
or charger in fl uid or allow a fl uid to fl ow inside them. Corrosive or
conductive fl uids, such as seawater, certain industrial chemicals,
and bleach or bleach containing products, etc., can cause a short
circuit.
