Safety instructions for hedge
trimmers
Keep all body parts away from the cutter.
Never attempt to remove the clippings
while the blade is running or hold material
which is to be cut. Before removing any
jammed clippings, switch off the unit.
A moment of inattention when using the
hedge trimmer may result in serious
injuries.
Carry the hedge trimmer by the handle
when the blade has stopped. When
transporting or storing the hedge trimmer,
always remove the battery and pull on the
guard. Handle the unit carefully to reduce
the risk of injury from the blade.
Hold the electric power tool by the
insulated handle surfaces only, as the
cutter may touch concealed power lines.
If the cutter comes into contact with a live
line, metallic parts of the unit may become
energised and cause an electric shock.
