Safety information
Use and handling of the power tool
a) Do not overload the device. Use the electric
power tool designed for your work. Your work
is performed better and safer with the appropriate
power tool in the specified power range.
b) Do not use a power tool with a defective
switch. An electric power tool which can no lon-
ger be switched on or off is dangerous and must
be repaired.
c) Pull the plug out of the socket and/or remove
the power pack before configuring any device
settings, changing accessory parts or storing
the device away. This precautionary measure
prevents the unintended start of the power tool.
d) Keep unused power tools out of the reach of
children. Do not let people use the device who
are unfamiliar with it or who have not read
these instructions. Electric power tools are dan-
gerous when used by inexperienced persons.
e) Treat power tools with care. Check that mov-
ing parts are in perfect working order and are
not jammed. Also check whether parts are so
damaged that they impair the function of the
power tool. Have damaged parts repaired pri-
or to using the device. Many accidents originate
from poorly maintained electric power tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Cutting
tools with sharp cutting edges which are treated
with care become stuck less frequently and are
easier to run.
g) Use power tools, accessories, insertion tools,
etc. in accordance with these instructions.
Take the work conditions and the activity to be
performed into consideration. The use of elec-
tric power tools for applications other than those
intended may lead to hazardous situations.
Use and handling of the battery tool
a) Charge the power packs only with chargers
that are recommended by the manufacturer.
There is a risk of fire if a charger that is suitable
for a specific type of battery is used with other bat-
teries.
b) Only use the power packs intended for this
purpose in power tools. Use of other power
packs can result in injuries and fires.
c) Keep the unused power pack away from paper
clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other small
metal objects that could cause short circuiting
of the contacts. A short-circuit between the pow-
er pack contacts could result in burns or fire.
d) Liquid may leak from the power pack if it is
used incorrectly. Avoid contact with this liquid.
If contact should occur, rinse off with water. If
the liquid comes into contact with the eyes,
also seek medical assistance. Leaking battery
fluid may lead to skin irritation and burns.
Safety information
Service
a) All repairs to the power tool must be carried
out by qualified specialist technicians and
with original spare parts only. This ensures that
the safety of the power tool is maintained.
Safety information for grass shears
¾ Keep all body parts away from the cutting
blade. Do not attempt to remove grass cut-
tings or hold material to be cut with the blade
running. Only remove jammed grass cuttings
with the device switched off. One moment of
inattentiveness when using the grass shears
could result in serious injuries.
¾ Only carry the grass shears with the motor
switched off and the blade stationary. When
transporting or storing the grass shears, al-
ways pull on the cover. Careful handling of the
device reduces the risk of injury from the blade.
¾ Only hold the power tool by the insulated han-
dles, because the cutting blade can come into
contact with hidden power cables or even its
own power cable. Contact of the cutting blade
with a live cable can conduct electrical voltage
into metallic device parts resulting in an electric
shock.
¾ Check for hidden objects in the lawn, such as
stones, wire, etc..
¾ Hold the device firmly with both hands.
¾ Switch the device off and remove the oper-
ating arm after contact with a foreign body.
Check the device for damage, and, if necessary,
arrange for repair by a specialist workshop.
¾ Switch the device off and remove the operat-
ing arm if the device starts to vibrate exces-
sively. Arrange for the device to be checked and,
if necessary, repaired by a specialist workshop.
Protection of yourself and others
¾ Do not operate the grass shears when there
are people (especially children) or animals in
the immediate vicinity. Ensure children do not
play with the grass shears.
¾ Stop using the device if persons (especially
children) or animals are nearby.
¾ This device must not be used by children or
persons with reduced physical, sensory or
mental capabilities or with inadequate experi-
ence and knowledge. Likewise persons must
be familiar with this instruction manual before
using the device. The minimum age for using
the device may be specified by local or national
legislation.
