ing the operating instructions before each use. Before
and during use, the hedge trimmer must be inspected

manufacturer, may be used. The hedge trimmer may
only be used in an outdoor garden area.
• If non-approved or non-original spare parts are used,
the operator shall be liable for any personal injury or
property damage which occurs, and not the manu-

liable for damage resulting for such; the risk shall be
borne solely by the user.
