Function Description

The electric hedge trimmer is driven by an

electronic motor. The equipment is double-

insulated for safety and does not require

earthing.

The hedge trimmer is equipped with a dou-

ble-sided safety cutter bar. When cutting,

the blades move backwards and forwards

in linear motion. The impact protection on

the tip of the cutter bar prevents unpleasant

recoils should the trimmer come into con-

tact with walls, fences and so on.

The unit can only be operated with the

deadman switch depressed, in order to

protect the operator. In addition, the hand

guard protects against branches and briars.

Please note the following descriptions for

the function of the operating components.

Operating the Hedge

Trimmer

Do not use the equipment with-

out the hand guard. Wear suitable

clothing and work gloves when

working with the equipment. En-

sure that the equipment is func-

tional before each use.

There is a risk of personal injury

and property damage!

The On/Off switch and the safety

switch must not be held closed.

They must switch off the motor

when on is released. Should a

switch be damaged, stop working

with the equipment. Ensure that

the mains voltage value matches

the label on the equipment.

There is a risk of electric shock!

Note noise protection and local

specifications.

Switching On and Off

Ensure that you are standing in a

firm position with both hands grip-

ping the hedge trimmer away from

the body. Ensure that the trimmer

is in contact with no other objects

before switching on.

1. For tension relief of the cable,

form a loop of the end of the

extension cable and bring this

through the opening at the han-

dle and suspend in the tension

relief at the grip (7).

2. Connect the device to the mains

voltage.
