Safety Notes Before Cutting

Always disconnect the battery
and ensure the motor has
stopped before cleaning or
making any adjustments.
Before starting work examine the
trimmer and accessories for defects and
damage.
The battery contains acids and chemicals
that can be harmful if the battery is
damaged it must be disposed of properly
and replaced with an identical product.
Check all fittings and fixings are present
and correctly fitted.
Ensure repairs are carried out before using
the trimmer or any of the accessories.
Repairs should only be carried out by
qualified and authorised persons, if in doubt
ask your retailer.
Run the trimmer briefly and check for
unusual sound or vibration, and for any
other signs of damage or deterioration.
Do not use batteries other than those
specified in this manual, the battery supplied
with this product is specifically made for this
tool and the supplied charger. Other
batteries and chargers may case explosions,
leaks or fire.
If you feel any physical discomfort or pain
stop work immediately.
Make sure bystanders are safe, do not
cut if you cannot see the area being cut
Check the area to be cut for
stones and anything that may
be flung by the tool. Remove
wire and string as it may damage
the trimmer.
Some plants and trees contain harmful
substances, always be aware of risks
and take appropriate measures before
beginning work.
Ensure the cutting line is correctly
adjusted. Do not use line designed
for other products.
Always start the trimmer away from the area
to be cut, attempting to cut before the
trimmer reaches operating speed can
damage the tool.
Some small sparks and a slight burning
smell may emanate from the motor, this is
normal and is due to the electronic brake.
If the battery or motor become too hot to
touch stop work immediately.
