e) Maintain power tools and attachments. Check for
misalignment or binding of moving parts, break-
age of parts and any other condition that may af-
fect the power tool's operation. If damaged, have
the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents
are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly main-
tained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less
likely to bind and are easier to control.
g) Use electric tools, insertion tools, etc. according
to these instructions. Take into account the work-
ing conditions and the work to be performed. Use
of the power tool for operations different from those in-
tended could result in a hazardous situation.
h) Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean
and free from oil and grease. Slippery handles and
grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling and
control of the tool in unexpected situations.
5) Battery tool use and care
a) Only charge the batteries with battery chargers
recommended by the manufacturer. A battery char-
ger that is suitable for a particular type of battery pos-
es a fire hazard when used with other batteries.
b) Only use the batteries in power tools that are de-
signed for them. The use of other batteries can lead
to injuries and a risk of fire.
c) Keep the unused battery away from paper clips,
coins, keys, nails, screws or other small metal ob-
jects that could cause a short-circuit between the
contacts. A short-circuit between the contacts of the
battery could result in burns or fires.
d) Liquid may leak from the battery if used incorrect-
ly. Avoid contact with it. In case of accidental con-
tact, rinse with water. If the liquid gets into your
eyes, seek additional medical attention. Leaking
battery fluid may cause skin irritation or burns.
e) Do not use a damaged or modified battery. Dam-
aged or modified batteries can behave unpredictably
and cause fire, explosion or injury.
f) Do not expose a battery to fire or excessive tem-
peratures. Fire or temperatures above 130°C may
cause an explosion.
g) Follow all charging instructions and never charge
the battery or rechargeable tool outside the tem-
perature range specified in the operating manual.
Incorrect charging or charging outside the approved
temperature range can destroy the battery and in-
crease the risk of fire.
6) Service
a) Only have your power tool repaired by qualified
specialists and only with original spare parts. This
will ensure that the safety of the power tool is main-
tained.
b) Never attempt to service damaged batteries. Any
type of battery maintenance shall be carried out only
by the manufacturer or an authorised customer ser-
vice centre.

ment of inattention while operating power tools may
result in serious personal injury.
b) National regulations may restrict the use of the product.

Safety instructions for hedge
trimmers
a) Do not use the hedge trimmer in bad weather con-
ditions, especially when there is a risk of light-
ning. This decreases the risk of being struck by light-
ning.
b) Keep all power cords and cables away from cut-
ting area. Power cords or cables may be hidden in
hedges or bushes and can be accidentally cut by the
blade.
c) Hold the hedge trimmer by insulated gripping sur-
faces only, because the blade may contact hidden
wiring or its own cord. Blades contacting a "live"
wire may make exposed metal parts of the hedge
trimmer "live" and could give the operator an electric
shock.
d) Keep all parts of the body away from the blade. Do
not remove cut material or hold material to be cut
when blades are moving. Blades continue to move
after the switch is turned off. A moment of inattention
while operating the hedge trimmer may result in seri-
ous personal injury.
e) Make sure all switches are off and the battery is
removed before removing trapped clippings or
servicing the product. Unexpected actuation of the
hedge trimmer while clearing jammed material or ser-
vicing may result in serious personal injury.
f) Carry the hedge trimmer by the handle with the
blade stopped and taking care not to operate any
power switch. Proper carrying of the hedge trimmer
will decrease the risk of inadvertent starting and resul-
tant personal injury from the blades.
g) When transporting or storing the hedge trimmer,
always use the blade cover. Proper handling of the
hedge trimmer will decrease the risk of personal injury
from the blades.
5.2.1
a) Always use head protection when operating the
pole hedge trimmer overhead. Falling debris can re-
sult in serious personal injury.
b) Always use two hands when operating the pole
hedge trimmer. Hold the pole hedge trimmer with
both hands to avoid loss of control.
