Intended Use
The equipment is specified for use only
for the cutting and trimming of hedges,
bushes and ornamental shrubs in the
domestic environment. Any other use that
is not explicitly approved in these instruc-
tions may result in damage to the equip-
ment and represent a serious danger to
the user.
The equipment is designed for use by
adults. Adolescents over the age of 16
may use the device only under supervi-
sion. Do not use the hedge trimmer in the
rain or on wet hedges.
The operator or user is responsible for ac-
cidents or damage to other people or their
property.
The manufacturer is not liable for dam-
ages caused by unspecified use or incor-
rect operation.
Before use, check that the blades

General Description
See the front fold-out page for
illustrations.
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
double-sided safety cutter bar. When
cutting, the blades move backwards and
forwards in linear motion. The impact pro-
tection on the tip of the cutter bar prevents
unpleasant recoils should the trimmer
come into contact 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.
