to our customer service center.
To ensure that items are properly packaged
and delivered when you send them to us,
please contact our customer service or the
point of sale at which the equipment was
purchased.
When shipping or disposing of batteries and
cordless tools, always ensure that they are
packed individually in plastic bags to prevent
short circuits and fi res.
To ensure that the battery pack provides long ser-
vice, you should take care to recharge it promptly.
You must recharge the battery pack when you
notice that the performance of the device drops.
Never allow the battery pack to become fully di-
scharged. This will cause it to develop a defect.
5.3 Battery capacity indicator (Fig. 6)
Press the battery capacity indicator switch (item
A). The battery capacity indicator (item B) shows
the charge status of the battery using 3 LEDs.
All 3 LEDs are lit:
The battery is fully charged.
2 or 1 LED(s) are lit:
The battery has an adequate remaining charge.
1 LED fl ashes:
The battery is empty, recharge the battery.
All LEDs blink:
The battery temperature is too low. Remove the
battery from the equipment, keep it at room tem-
perature for one day. If the fault reoccurs, this me-
ans that the rechargeable battery has undergone
exhaustive discharge and is defective. Remove
the battery from the equipment. Never use or
charge a defective battery.

switch is released, the cutters will stop moving.
Please watch out for the cutters as they slow
down to a standstill.
6.2 Speed control (Fig. 7)
The tool comes with an electronic speed con-
troller for setting the cutting speed. Two speed
settings are possible.
(level 1 – ECO/Item D – level 2 – MAX/Item E)
1. You can change the cutting speed by pres-
sing the "SET" pushbutton (Item F). Switching
over is possible only when the motor is not
running.
2. If the tool is not used for a period of 15 minu-
tes, the LED will go out.
6.3 Anti-blocking system
The tool features an anti-blocking system which
overcomes blade blockages caused by branches.
The blades move back and forth several times in
order to cut through any jammed branches.
What to do if the blockage cannot be over-
come
1. Stop the equipment.
2. Remove the battery.
3. Remove the jammed material from the blade
(wear work gloves to prevent injury when you
do so).
Notes for use
•
A hedge trimmer can be used to cut shrubs
and bushes as well as hedges.
•
To obtain the best cutting results, hold the
hedge trimmer so that the cutter teeth are
at an angle of approx. 15° in relation to the
hedge (see Fig. 8).
•
The twin-bladed cutters rotate in opposite
directions, thus enabling cutting in both direc-
tions (see Fig. 9).
•
To ensure that you cut the hedge to a level
height, we recommend tying a guide line of
string or similar along the hedge. Cut off all
branches that protrude beyond the guide line
(see Fig. 10).
Warning! Be particularly attentive when cutting
along the guide line. Do not cut through the guide
line. This could get entangled in the blades and
lead to injuries or damage to property.
Cuttings collector (Fig. 11-13)
For horizontal cutting we recommend that you
install the cuttings collector. This enables you to
remove the cuttings easily and keep the top of
