SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WORKPLACE SAFETY
- Always keep the workplace clean and well-lit. Cluttered and poorly lit workplaces increase the risk of accidents.
- Do not use the device in potentially explosive areas, such as in the vicinity of flammable liquids, gases, vapours or dust. The device can generate sparks, which can ignite dust or fumes.
- Keep children and bystanders clear when operating the device. Distractions can lead to loss of control of the device.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
- The plug on the device must be suited to the socket, and must not be modified in any way. Do not use adapter plugs with earthed power tools. This will avoid the risk of electric shock.
- Do not use the device in the rain or in any other damp environment. If water enters the device, this will increase the risk of electric shock.
- Always handle the cord with care. Never use the cord to carry, drag or unplug the device. Keep the cable clear from heat sources, oils, sharp edges and moving parts. Damaged or tangled cables increase the risk of electric shock.
- When using the device outdoors, only ever use an extension cable that is suitable for outdoor use.
PERSONAL SAFETY
- Remain alert and apply common sense when operating the device. Do not use the device when you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A brief lapse of concentration while operating the device could result in serious personal injury.
- Always use appropriate protective equipment. Wear eye protection, a dust mask, safety shoes, helmet and/or hearing protection that is required for the respective conditions; these reduce the risk of injury.
- Avoid unintentional starting of the device. Ensure that the device switch is in the OFF position before inserting the battery pack, picking up, or operating the device. Powering up the tool with the switch turned to ON can lead to accidents.
- Remove the adjustment key before switching on the device. If a wrench or adjustment key is left on the rotating part of the power section, this can lead to injuries.
- Do not over-tighten the attachment. Always make sure that you can maintain a strong and balanced stance. This assures better control in unexpected situations.
- Do not over-estimate your capacities. Make sure you have a secure stance and balance at all times. This allows for better control over the device in unforeseen situations.
- Wear appropriate clothing. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Make sure that hair, clothing and gloves cannot become caught in the moving parts.
- Never attempt to remove the cut material or hold the material to be cut while the blades are moving.
- With the blade stopped, carry the trimmer/shears by the handle, being careful not to trigger any power switches.
- Just one moment of carelessness during operation could result in serious injury.
- Always attach the blade cover when transporting or storing.
- When removing jammed material or performing maintenance on the appliance, make sure all switches are off and that the power cord is unplugged.
- Do not use the hedge trimmer/grass shears in bad weather, especially when there is a risk of lightning.
- Please check hedges and shrubs beforehand for foreign objects, e.g. wire fences and hidden cables.
- Only use the hedge trimmer while close to the ground; never use while on ladders or other unstable supports.
- Wear hearing protection. Appropriate protective equipment reduces the risk of hearing loss.

WARNING: To avoid the risk of injury, remove the battery pack from the
tool before making any adjustments, removing
Removing the attachment
(rear trimmer and grass shears) Press the side buttons of the trimmer/shears
and slide the attachment forward from the head
- WARNING: Danger of electric shock. Under no circumstances should this apparatus be used near water.
- WARNING: Never attempt to lock the switch when it is in the ON position.
- CAUTION: Allow the tool to run at the required speed and do not exert force upon it. Avoid overloading.
- WARNING: The blades continue to move even after the device has been switched off.
IMPORTANT: Before using the tool, carefully read the operating
instructions for the power unit and all safety instructions and details
relating to the installation and removal of the attachments.
OPERATION
NOTE: This tool attachment can only be moved clockwise, and therefore the
switch of the power unit cannot be switched to the anti-clockwise direction.
- To switch on the tool, press the activated locking button and hold it down (5), then press the on/off button of the power unit all the way down.
- After the blades start operating, release the activated locking button (5).
- To turn the tool off, release the power button.
NOTE: The lock button can be activated on either the left or right of the
attachment. (see figure 2)
GRASS TRIMMING (see figure 3) The blade of the grass shear (2) is designed to
trim grass and weeds.
For optimal cutting results, only cut the grass when dry, and hold the tool. Keep your hand at a safe distance from the blade. Make sure you are in a stable working position in order to avoid slipping. Make sure you maintain a reasonable distance.
- When cutting long grass, work gradually from the top downwards. Cut in small increments.
- Keep the tool away from hard objects and delicate plants.
- If the tool slows down during operation, reduce the forcefulness with which you are operating it.
- To make a deeper cut into the vegetation, tilt the tool slightly.
- Be careful not to cut foreign objects. In particular, avoid hard objects such as metal wires and railings, as these can damage the blades.
NOTE: Before first use, spray the blade with a fine coat of multipurpose
oil and repeat the process if the blade is dry.
HEDGE TRIMMING (see figure 4)
The trimming blade (3) is designed to trim shrubs and hedges. For optimal
cutting performance, tilt the tool slightly (about 15° off the cutting line)
so that the blade tip lightly touches the edge. This makes the blades cut more
efficiently.
-
Start trimming at the top of the hedge. Hold
the tool at the desired angle and move it evenly along the cutting line. The double-sided blade allows you to cut in both directions. -
To achieve a flawless straight cut, we recommend stretching a string along the hedge at the desired height, and using it as a guide to cut the hedge directly above it.
-
To achieve flat sides, cut upwards in the direction of growth. Younger branches are able to move outward when the blade cuts downward, so that the hedge thins out at this point.
-
Be careful not to cut foreign objects. In particular, avoid hard objects such as metal wires and railings, as these can damage the blades.
NOTE: Oil the blade regularly.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
WARNING: Switch off the tool and disconnect it from the power supply (remove the battery pack) before cleaning and maintaining the tool in order to avoid any risk of electric shock or unintentional start-up.
- Wipe the tool clean with a dry or damp cloth. Never use a soaked cloth.
- Do not use cleaning agents that contain solvents or corrosive or abrasive additives, as otherwise there is a risk of damage to the surface.
Make sure that the ventilation openings are not covered, in order to avoid the risk of overheating.
