2. The hedge trimmer can cause serious injuries! Read the direc-
tions for use carefully in order to acquaint yourself with
- the correct way to handle,
- set up,
- service,
- start and put down the machine.
Familiarize yourself with all the machine's control elements and its
proper use.
3. Always handle the hedge trimmer with both hands.
4. When working with the hedge trimmer, wear sturdy shoes and
make sure of your footing.
5. Never work with the hedge trimmer in the rain or on wet hedges
and never leave the hedge trimmer outdoors. The hedge trimmer
must not be used if it is wet.
6. We recommend that you wear safety goggles and ear-muff s when
working with the hedge trimmer.
7. Wear suitable working clothes such as rubber gloves and non-slip
shoes. Do not wear loose garments. Keep long hair in a hairnet.
8. Avoid abnormal postures and make sure of your footing, particu-
larly when working on ladders and steps.
9. Be sure to hold the hedge trimmer well away from your body when
it is switched on.
10. Make sure there are no other persons or animals within your wor-
king area (radius of swing).
11. Carry the hedge trimmer only by its guide handle.
12. The cutting unit must be checked regularly for damage. If neces-
sary, arrange for the cutting tool to be repaired by your Hornbach
store.
13. If the blades become jammed, e.g. due to thick branches or the
like, switch off and remove the battery immediately. Only then are
you to remove the cause of the obstruction.
14. Keep the hedge trimmer in a dry, safe place out of children's
reach.
