To use the Pole Trimmer for trimming low- lying foliage
or ground cover, hold the Pole Trimmer at the position
as shown.
Use the Pole Trimmer properly. Always wear eye protec-
tion, rubber gloves, and substantial foot wear while using
the Pole Trimmer. Always maintain proper footing and
balance and never overreach when using Pole Trimmer.
Before starting the Pole Trimmer, hold the unit with both
hands on the grip areas. Make sure that the cutter blade
is not touching anything.
Always keep the extension cord behind the Pole Trimmer
when in use. Do not drape the cord over the hedge where
it may be cut by the blades. Use smooth steady sweeping
motions to trim new growth. Do not try to cut too much at
one time. This can cause the Pole Trimmer to slow down
or get jammed, reducing the cutting efficiency.
Do not force the Pole Trimmer through dense growth. A
slight back and forth sawing action may ease the cutting
of larger, more dense growth. If the Pole Trimmer begins
to slow down, reduce the rate of speed at which you
are trying to cut. If the Pole Trimmer becomes jammed,
immediately turn Pole Trimmer off. Disconnect Pole
Trimmer from the power supply and remove the jammed
debris from the cutter blades.
Do not try to cut branches larger than 20mm in diameter.
For best results, trim the sides of hedges with an upward
sweeping motion. Trim the hedges so that the top is
slightly narrower than the bottom.
Cleaning, maintenance and storage of the pole
trimmer
WARNING: Disconnect Pole Trimmer from power
supply before cleaning or servicing. Severe injury
or death could occur from fire, electrical shock, or
body contact with moving cutter blades.
WARNING: When cleaning Pole Trimmer:
- Do not submerse Pole Trimmer in any liquids.
- Do not use products that contain Ammonia, Chlo-
rine, or abrasives.
- Do not use chlorinated cleaning solvents, Carbon
Tetrachloride, Kerosene, or Gasoline.
Use a soft cloth dampened with a mild soap and water
mixture to wipe Pole Trimmer pole, housing, and cutter
blades clean. Do not spray or pour water directly onto
Pole Trimmer.
• Keep cutting edge sharp and clean for best perfor-
mance and to reduce the risk of injury
• Follow instruction for lubricating and changing ac-
cessories.
• Inspect Pole Trimmer cord periodically, and if dam-
aged, have it repaired by an authorized service facility.
• Inspect extension cords periodically and replace if
damaged.
• Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil and grease.
1. Check Damaged Parts
• If a part is damaged, carefully check the damaged part
before using the Pole Trimmer. Make sure the part will
operate properly and perform its intended function.
• Check for alignment of moving parts, binding of
moving parts, breakage of parts, mounting, and any
other condition that may affect its operation.
2. When servicing Pole Trimmer, use only identical
replacement parts.
3. Store Idle Pole Trimmer Indoors.
When not in use, the Pole Trimmer should be stored indoors
in a dry location. Store Pole Trimmer above the reach of
children or in a locked area out of the reach of children.
When transporting the tool by car, it must be positioned so
that it poses no danger, and secured.
Environmental protection
Dispose of the machine properly after it is worn out. Dis-
connect the mains cable in order to prevent misuse. Do
not dispose of the machine with the household waste. In
the interest of environmental protection, take it to a col-
lection point for electric machines. Your responsible local
authority can provide you with addresses and operating
times. Also take the packaging materials and worn out
accessories to the appropriate collection
Only for EU countries
Do not discard electric tools in the household
waste!
In accordance with European Directive 2012/19/EC on
waste electrical and electronic equipment and its imple-
mentation in national law, waste electric tools must be col-
lected separately for environmentally-compatible re-use.
Recycling alternative to the return invitation:
Instead of returning the electric equipment, the owner is
alternatively obligated to take part in the proper recycling
in the case of relinquishment of ownership. The waste
equipment can also be taken to a collection facility which
disposes of it in the sense of the national recycling man-
agement and waste acts. This does not pertain to the ac-
cessory parts and auxiliary equipment without electrical
components accompanying the waste equipment.
