Operation - Flymo EasiCut Cordless 20V Li Operator's Manual

e) Do not use a battery pack or tool that is damaged or modified.
Damaged or modified batteries may exhibit unpredictable behavior resulting in
fire, explosion or risk of injury.
f) Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire or excessive temperature.
Exposure to fire or temperature above 130 °C may cause explosion.
g) Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the battery pack
or tool outside the temperature range specified in the instructions.
Charging improperly or at temperatures outside the specified range may dam-
age the battery and increase the risk of fire.
6) Service
a) Have your machine serviced by a qualified repair person using only
identical replacement parts.
This will ensure that the safety of the machine is maintained.
b) Never service damaged battery packs. Service of battery packs should
only be performed by the manufacturer or authorised service providers.
Hedge trimmer safety warnings
a) 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 serious personal injury.
b) 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 resultant personal injury from the blades.
c) When transporting or storing the hedge trimmer, always fit the blade
cover. Proper handling of the hedge trimmer will decrease the risk of personal
injury from the blades.
d) When clearing jammed material or servicing the unit, make sure all
power switches are off and the battery pack is removed or discon-
nected. Unexpected actuation of the hedge trimmer while clearing jammed
material or servicing may result in serious personal injury.
e) When clearing jammed material or servicing the unit, make sure all
power switches are off and the lock-off is in the locked position.
Unexpected actuation of the hedge trimmer while clearing jammed material or
servicing may result in serious personal injury.
f) Hold the hedge trimmer by insulated gripping surfaces only, because
the blade may contact hidden wiring.
Blades contacting a "live" wire may make exposed metal parts of the hedge
trimmer "live" and could give the operator an electric shock.
g) Keep all power cords and cables away from cutting area.
Power cords or cables may be hidden in hedges or bushes and can be
accidentally cut by the blade.
h) Do not use the hedge trimmer in bad weather conditions, especially
when there is a risk of lightning.
This decreases the risk of being struck by lightning.
Search hedges and bushes for hidden objects (e. g. wire fences and hidden wires).
The use of a residual current device (RCD) with a trip current of 30 mA or less
is recommended.
Hold the hedge trimmer with both hands on both handles.
The hedge trimmer is intended for use when the user is standing on the ground
and not on a ladder or other unstable surface.
Additional safety warnings
Battery safety
The battery to be charged must be placed on a nonflammable, heat
resistant and non-conductive surface while charging.
The battery must not be charged unattended.
The supply terminals are not to be short-circuited.
Keep corrosive, flammable and easily combustible objects clear of the

DANGER! Risk of explosion!
Protect batteries from heat and fire. Do not leave on radiators or expose
to strong sunshine for long periods.
Do not operate in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Batteries may create sparks which
could ignite the dust or fumes.
Check your battery before each use. Visually check the battery before each use.

40 °C. Allow battery to cool down after long periods of use.
Check the charging cable regularly for signs of damage or ageing (brittleness).
Only use it in perfect condition.
Do not stow or transport the battery above 45 °C or in direct sunlight. Ideally, the
battery should be stored below 25 °C so that self-discharge is low.
Do not expose the battery to rain, water (immersion) or wet conditions.
Keep battery in order (clean) especially air vents.
If usage of the battery is not planned for a certain time (winter period) reload
the battery to avoid a deep discharge.
Do not store the battery in a product to prevent self-discharge, misuse and
accidents.
Do not store the battery in places where static electricity is present.
