5. Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified
repair person using only identical replacement
parts. This will ensure that the safety of the
power tool is maintained.
Hedge trimmer safety warnings:
• Keep all parts of the body away from the cutter blade.
Do not remove cut material or hold material to be cut
when blades are moving. Make sure the switch is off
when clearing jammed material. A moment of
inattention while operating the hedge trimmer may
result in serious personal injury.
• Carry the hedge trimmer by the handle with the cutter
blade stopped. When transporting or storing the
hedge trimmer always fit the cutting device cover.
Proper handling of the hedge trimmer will reduce
possible personal injury from the cutter blades.
• Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces
only, because the cutter blade may contact hidden
wiring or its own cord. Cutter blades contacting a
"live" wire may make exposed metal parts of the
power tool "live" and could give the operator an
electric shock.
Keep cable away from the cutting area. During
•
operation the cable may be hidden in shrubs and can
be accidentally cut by the blade.
