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

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.
