waterproof.
6. First-time users should have an experienced hedge
trimmer user show them how to use the trimmer.

responsible for all damages to third parties.
9. Never use the trimmer when under the influence of
alcohol, drugs or medication.
10. Check to make sure that the voltage and frequency of

of 30 mA or less, or an earth leakage current
protector.

equipment of the hedge trimmer and must always be
worn when working with it. Also wear sturdy shoes
with anti-skid soles.

mains plug if the cutter should come into contact with
a fence or other hard object. Check the cutter for
damage, and if damaged repair immediately.
19. Before checking the cutter, taking care of faults, or
removing material caught in the cutter, always switch
off the trimmer and unplug the mains plug.
20. Switch off the trimmer and disconnect and secure the
mains plug before doing any maintenance work.

carry or transport the trimmer with the cutter running.
Never grasp the cutter with your hands.
22. Clean the hedge trimmer and especially the cutter
after use, and before putting the trimmer into storage
