20. Check damaged parts.
Before further use of the tool, a guard or other part
that is damaged should be carefully checked to
determine that it will operate properly and perform
its intended function. Check for alignment of mov-
ing parts, free running of moving parts, breakage
of parts, mounting and any other conditions that
may affect its operation. A guard or other part
that is damaged should be properly repaired or
replaced by an authorized service center unless
otherwise indicated in this instruction manual.
Have defective switches replaced by an autho-
rized service facility. Do not use the tool if the
switch does not turn it on and off.
21. Warning.
The use of any accessory or attachment, other
than those recommended in this instruction man-
ual or the catalog, may present a risk of personal
injury.
22. Have your tool repaired by a qualified person.
This electric tool is in accordance with the relevant
safety requirements. Repairs should only be car-
ried out by qualified persons using original spare
parts, otherwise this may result in considerable
danger to the user.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES
1.
Do not use the hedge trimmer in the rain or in wet
or very damp conditions. The electric motor is not
waterproof.
2.
First-time users should have an experienced
hedge trimmer user show them how to use the
trimmer.
3.
The hedge trimmer must not be used by children
or young persons under 18 years of age. Young
persons over 16 years of age may be exempted
from this restriction if they are undergoing training
under the supervision of an expert.
4.
Use the hedge trimmer only if you are in good
physical condition. If you are tired, your attention
will be reduced. Be especially careful at the end of
a working day. Perform all work calmly and care-
fully. The user is responsible for all damages to
third parties.
5.
Never use the trimmer when under the influence
of alcohol, drugs or medication.
6.
Check to make sure that the voltage and fre-
quency of the power supply correspond to the
specifications given on the identification plate. We
recommend the use of a residual-current-operated
circuit breaker (ground-fault circuit interrupter) or
an earth leakage current protector.
7.
Work gloves of stout leather are part of the basic
equipment of the hedge trimmer and must always
be worn when working with it. Also wear sturdy
shoes with anti-skid soles.
8.
Before starting work check to make sure that the
trimmer is in good and safe working order. Ensure
guards are fitted properly. Check cable for dam-
age before starting work and replace if necessary.
The hedge trimmer must not be used unless fully
assembled.
9.
Keep cable away from the cutting area. Always
work in such a way that the extension power cord
is behind you.
10. Remove plug from the mains immediately if cable
is damaged or cut.
11.
Make sure you have a secure footing before start-
ing operation.
12. Hold the tool firmly when using the tool.
13. Immediately switch off the motor and unplug the
mains plug if the cutter should come into contact
with a fence or other hard object. Check the cutter
for damage, and if damaged repair immediately.
14. Before checking the cutter, taking care of faults,
or removing material caught in the cutter, always
switch off the trimmer and unplug the mains plug.
15. Switch off the trimmer and disconnect and secure
the mains plug before doing any maintenance
work.
16. When moving the hedge trimmer to another loca-
tion, including during work, always unplug the
mains plug and put the blade cover on the cutter
blades. Never carry or transport the trimmer with
the cutter running. Never grasp the cutter with
your hands.
17. Clean the hedge trimmer and especially the cut-
ter after use, and before putting the trimmer into
storage for extended periods. Lightly oil the cutter
and put on the cover. The cover supplied with the
unit can be hung on the wall, providing a safe and
practical way to store the hedge trimmer.
18. Store the hedge trimmer with the cover on, in a dry
room. Keep it out of reach of children. Never store
the trimmer outdoors.
