Further Safety Instructions - PrimAster PMAHS 2025 Operating Instructions Manual

GB ENGLISH
c) 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.
d) 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.
e) 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.
f) 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.
g) When transporting or storing the hedge trim-
mer, always fit the blade cover. Proper handling
of the hedge trimmer will decrease the risk of
personal injury from the blades.
