Intended use

As required, this device may be converted via
simple replacement of the included attachments
into grass shears or bush shears.
Hints for your work with the tool
The shrub trimmer cuts ornamental shrubs and
light undergrowth or bushes. The device is also
well-suited for ornamental cuts as, for example,
for the care of graves.
The battery-powered grass- and shrub
shear can not and should not replace your
hedge shears.
They are exclusively designed to trim and cut
back ornamental shrubs and brushwood with
a low wood thickness. Any other use is not
deemed appropriate and the manufacturer/ sup-
plier is not liable for damages resulting from
such use.
The grass shears allow for clean cuts of lawn
edges or hardly accessible lawn areas.
As the device is operated with one hand
please be careful not to move the other
hand near the running cutting tools.
Each type of use other than those given in these
instructions for use can damage the machine
and cause serious risk to the user.
Please always observe the safety instructions
in order to safeguard your guarantee claim and
in the interests of product safety. Due to the
machine's design, we are unable to fully exclude
all residual risks.
Residual dangers
Residual risks always remain even if the hedge
trimmer is used properly. The hedge trimmer's
design can entail the following hazards:
• Contact can be made with the unprotected
blade (resulting in cutting injuries)
• Reaching into or grabbing the hedge trimmer
while it is in operation (resulting in cutting in-
juries)
• Unanticipated, sudden movement of the plant
material being cut (resulting in cutting injuries)
• Ejection or catapulting of damaged cutting
teeth
• Ejection or catapulting of the plant material be-
ing cut
