 Do not carry the grass and hedge shears with the fingers on the ON/OFF
switch. To protect the blades when not in use always slide the blade
protection over the blades. Careful handling with the grass and hedge
shears reduces the risk of injury.
 Do not attempt to remove cut material from the blades or to hold material
to be cut when the blades are running. Remove jammed material from the
blades after the grass and hedge shears is switched off. A moment of
inattention while operat-ing the grass and hedge shears may result in
serious personal injury.
 The blades are very sharp. Do not touch the blades during use and keep
fingers, hair, clothing and similar objects away from the blades. Switch on
the unit only when your fingers and
 feet are clear off the blades. Please note that the blades will still move for
some seconds after switching off. Wait unit the blades have come to a
standstill.
 Keep the blades always sharp and clean. Replace defective or completely
worn blades with original parts only. Blunt blades will overload of the grass
and hedge shears.
 When cutting grass or hedges make sure the blades will not touch stones,
wire etc. Always make sure metal parts, fences etc. cannot be caught in the
blades. This will lead to damage to the blades and the unit. When the blades
become blocked, immediately switch off the unit. Do not force the grass and
hedge shears while cutting. Allow the unit to work at the rate for which it
was designed.
 While trimming scrubs or hedges make sure not to cut hidden electric wires
(fairy lights or similar). Always keep a safe distance to high-voltage power
lines.
 Charge the battery of the grass and hedge shears only with the included
charging station and charger. Do not charge other devices with this
accessory.
 Only charge the battery at an ambient temperature between 10º C and 40º
C. A charged battery can be used to power the unit under ambient
temperature conditions between 0º C and 50º C. Do not expose the battery
to extreme conditions such as heat or impacts. The battery can be damaged
and corro-sive liquid can leak out. Battery acid is very aggressive and can
lead to serious acid burns.
 When not in use, store the battery in a dry place between 10º C and 30º C
out of reach of children and persons in need of supervision.
