GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS
WARNING
Read all safety warnings and instructions. Failure to
follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric
shock, fire and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your mains-
operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless)
power tool.
WORK AREA SAFETY
Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark
areas invite accidents.
Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres,
such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases
or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the
dust or fumes.
Keep children and bystanders away while operating a
power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify
the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with
earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and
matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces
such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is
earthed or grounded.
Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.
Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric
shock.
Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying,
pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away
from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged
or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
When operating a power tool outdoors, use an
extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord
suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
If operating a power tool in a damp location is
unavoidable, use a ground fault circuit interrupter
(GFCI) protected supply. Use of a GFCI reduces the risk
of electric shock.
PERSONAL SAFETY
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common
sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power
tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs,
alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while
operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye
protection. Protective equipment such as dust mask, non-
skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for
appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in
the off-position before connecting to power source
and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool.
Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or
energising power tools that have the switch on invites
accidents.
Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning
the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to
a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal
injury.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at
all times. This enables better control of the power tool in
unexpected situations.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery.
Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving
parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught
in moving parts.
If devices are provided for the connection of dust
extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are
connected and properly used. Use of dust collection
can reduce dust-related hazards.
Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long
hair. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be drawn
into air vents.
Do not use on a ladder or unstable support. Stable
footing on a solid surface enables better control of the
power tool in unexpected situations.
Do not operate the power tool while barefoot or when
wearing sandals or similar lightweight footwear.
POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power
tool for your application. The correct power tool will
do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was
designed.
Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn
it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled
with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or
the battery pack from the power tool before making
any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing
power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce
the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and
do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool
or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power
tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or
binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any
other condition that may affect the power tool’s
operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired
before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly
maintained power tools.

GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS
HEDGE TRIMMER SAFETY WARNINGS
Keep all parts of the body away from the cutter blade.
Do not remove cut material or hold material to be cut
when blades are moving. Make sure the switch is off
when clearing jammed material. Blades coast after turn
off. A moment of inattention while operating the hedge
trimmer may result in serious personal injury.
Carry the hedge trimmer by the handle with the cutter
blade stopped. Proper handling of the hedge trimmer will
reduce possible personal injury from the cutter blades.
Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces only,
because the cutter blade may contact hidden wiring
or its own cord. Cutter blades contacting a “live” wire
may make exposed metal parts of the power tool “live”
and could give the operator an electric shock.
DANGER — Keep hands away from blade. Contact with
blade will result in serious personal injury.
WARNING Only use with handle and guard properly
assembled to hedge trimmer. The use of the hedge trimmer
without the proper guard or handle provided may result
in serious personal injury.
Use non-slip, heavy-duty protective gloves when operating
the shrubber and when installing or removing blades.
Replace any blade or other parts that are cracked or
damaged. Always make sure blade is installed correctly
and securely fastened before each use. Failure to do so can
cause serious personal injury to the operator, bystanders,
or damage to the unit.
Never cut any material over 5/16 in. diameter.
Maintain a firm grip on handle while cutting with a blade.
Keep the blade away from body.
Know how to stop the unit quickly in an emergency.
Disable motor by moving latch on bottom cover to the un-
lock position before making any adjustments or changing
accessories. Remove blades and store them in a separate
location out of the reach of children before storing the
shrubber. Such preventive safety measures reduce the
risk of starting the product accidentally.
Service on the product must be performed by qualified
repair personnel only. Service or maintenance performed
by unqualified personnel could result in injury to the user
or damage to the product.
Always stop the motor by removing finger from switch
trigger, ensure the blades have stopped moving, and
disable motor when not in use by moving latch on bottom
cover to the unlock position; perform these steps before
attempting to clean any obstruction caught or jammed in
the blade, or before removing, installing, or making any
blade adjustments.
Never use shrubber if the switch will not turn the unit on
or off. A unit that cannot be controlled by the switch is
dangerous and must be repaired before use.
Shrubber is for cutting hedges and shrubbery only. Do not
use for any other purpose.
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained
cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to
bind and are easier to control.
Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc., in
accordance with these instructions, taking into account
the working conditions and the work to be performed.
Use of the power tool for operations different from those
intended could result in a hazardous situation.
BATTERY TOOL USE AND CARE
Recharge only with the charger specified by the
manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type
of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with
another battery pack.
Use power tools only with specifically designated
battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may create
a risk of injury and fire.
When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from
other metal objects, like paper clips, coins, keys, nails,
screws or other small metal objects, that can make a
connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the
battery terminals together may cause burns or a fire.
Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from
the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally
occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes,
additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the
battery may cause irritation or burns.
SERVICE
Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair
person using only identical replacement parts. This
will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
Page 5 — English
HEDGE TRIMMER SAFETY WARNINGS
Maintain shrubber with care. Keep cutting edge sharp
and clean for best performance and to reduce the risk
of injury. Follow instructions for lubricating and changing
accessories. Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil
and grease.
Battery tools do not have to be plugged into an electrical
outlet; therefore, they are always in operating condition.
Be aware of possible hazards when not using your battery
tool or when changing accessories. Following this rule will
reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, or serious personal
injury.
Do not place battery tools or their batteries near fire or
heat. This will reduce the risk of explosion and possibly
injury.
Do not crush, drop or damage battery pack. Do not
use a battery pack or charger that has been dropped or
received a sharp blow. A damaged battery is subject to
explosion. Properly dispose of a dropped or damaged

CUTTING TIPS
See Figure 4.
DANGER:
Never cut near electric cords or lines. If blade jams on
any electrical cord or line, DO NOT TOUCH THE BLADE!
IT CAN BECOME ELECTRICALLY LIVE AND VERY
DANGEROUS. Continue to hold the shrubber by the
handle or lay it down and away from you in a safe manner.
Disconnect the electrical service to the damaged line or
cord before attempting to free the blade from the line or
cord. Contact with the blade, other conductive parts of
the shrubber, or live electric cords or lines will result in
death by electrocution or serious injury.
WARNING:
Clear the area to be cut before each use. Remove all
objects such as cords, lights, wire, or loose string which
can become entangled in the cutting blade and create a
risk of serious personal injury.
Do not force the shrubber through heavy shrubbery. This
can cause the blades to bind and slow down. If the blades
slow down, reduce the pace.
Do not attempt to cut stems or twigs that are larger than
5/16 in. thick, or those obviously too large to feed into the
cutting blade. Use a non-powered hand saw or pruning
saw to trim large stems.
If desired, you can use a string to help cut your hedge
level. Decide how high you want the hedge. Stretch a
piece of string along the hedge at the desired height.
Trim the hedge just above the guide line of string. Trim
the side of a hedge so that it will be slightly narrower at
the top. More of the hedge will be exposed when shaped
this way, and it will be more uniform.
Wear gloves when trimming thorny or prickly growth.
When trimming new growth, use a wide sweeping action,
so that the stems are fed directly into the cutting blade.
Older growth will have thicker stems and will be trimmed
easiest by using a sawing movement.
OPERATING THE SHRUBBER
WARNING:
Read the safety information for safe operation using the
blade. Extreme care must be taken when using blades
to ensure safe operation. Refer to Important Safety
Instructions and Specific Safety Rules.
Use a firm grip on the handle. The unit is used for cutting
in either direction in a slow, sweeping action from side to
side.
Stand so that you are stable and balanced on both feet.
Inspect and clear the area of any hidden objects.
Never use the shrubber near power lines, fencing, posts,
buildings, or other immovable objects.
Never use a blade after hitting a hard object without first
inspecting it for damage. Do not use if any damage is
detected.
Page 11 — English
MAINTENANCE
WARNING:
Blades are sharp. When handling the blade assembly,
wear non-slip, heavy-duty protective gloves. Do not place
your hand or fingers between blades or in any position
where they could get pinched or cut. NEVER touch blades

AVERTISSEMENT
Lire tous les avertissements et toutes les instructions.
Ne pas suivre l’ensemble des avertissements et des
instructions peut entraîner une électrocution, un incendie
ou des blessures graves.
Conserver les avertissements et les instructions à des
fins de référence ultérieure.
Le terme « outil motorisé »,
utilisé dans tous les avertissements ci-dessous désigne tout
outil fonctionnant sur secteur (câblé) ou sur piles (sans fil).
SÉCURITÉ DU LIEU DE TRAVAIL
Garder le lieu de travail propre et bien éclairé. Les
endroits encombrés ou sombre s sont propices aux
accidents.
Ne pas utiliser d’outils électriques dans des
atmosphères explosives, par exemple en présence de
liquides, gaz ou poussières inflammables. Les outils
électriques produisent des étincelles risquant d’enflammer
les poussières ou vapeurs.
Garder les enfants et badauds à l’écart pendant
l’utilisation d’un outil électrique. Les distractions peuvent
causer une perte de contrôle.
SÉCURITÉ ÉLECTRIQUE
Les fiches des outils électriques doivent correspondre
à la prise secteur utilisée. Ne jamais modifier la fiche,
de quelque façon que ce soit. Ne jamais utiliser
d’adaptateurs de fiche avec des outils mis à la terre.
Les fiches et prises non modifiées réduisent le risque de
choc électrique.
Éviter tout contact du corps avec des surfaces mises
à la terre, telles que tuyaux, radiateurs, cuisinières et
réfrigérateurs. Le risque de choc électrique est accru
lorsque le corps est mis à la terre.
Ne pas exposer les outils électriques à l’eau ou
l’humidité. La pénétration d’eau dans ces outils accroît
le risque de choc électrique.
Ne pas maltraiter le cordon d’alimentation. Ne jamais
utiliser le cordon d’alimentation pour transporter
l’outil et ne jamais débrancher ce dernier en tirant sur
le cordon. Garder le cordon à l’écart de la chaleur,
de l’huile, des objets tranchants et des pièces en
mouvement. Un cordon endommagé ou emmêlé accroît
le risque de choc électrique.
Pour les travaux à l’extérieur, utiliser un cordon
spécialement conçu à cet effet. Utiliser un cordon conçu
pour l’usage extrérieur pour réduire les risques de choc
électrique.
S’il est nécessaire d’utiliser l’outil électrique dans un

peut causer des blessures.
Ne pas travailler hors de portée. Toujours se tenir
bien campé et en équilibre. Ceci permettra de mieux
contrôler l’outil en cas de situation imprévue.
Porter une tenue appropriée. Ne porter ni vêtements
amples, ni bijoux. Garder les cheveux, les vêtements
et les gants à l’écart des pièces en mouvement. Les
vêtements amples, bijoux et cheveux longs peuvent se
prendre dans les pièces en mouvement.
Si les outils sont équipés de dispositifs de
dépoussiérage, s’assurer qu’ils sont connectés et
correctement utilisés. L’usage de ces dispositifs de
dépoussiérage peut réduire les dangers présentés par
la poussière.
Ne porter ni vêtements amples, ni bijoux. Attacher
ou couvrir les cheveux longs. Les vêtements amples,
bijoux et cheveux longs peuvent se prendre dans les

Éloigner toute partie du corps des lames. Ne retirer
les matériaux coincés ou suspendus ou de les tenir
lorsque les lames sont en mouvement. S’assurer que
l’interrupteur est à la position OFF (éteint) lorsque
l’on déloge les débris de matériaux. La lame termine
son mouvement une fois l’outil éteint. Un moment
d’inattention pendant l’utilisation du taille-haie peut
occasionner une blessure grave.
Transporter le taille-haie par la poignée et s’assurer
que la lame est immobile. Une manipulation adéquate
du taille-haie réduira les risques de blessures dues aux
lames.
Soutenir l’outil électrique par les prises isolées
seulement, car les lames peuvent toucher un fil
camouflé ou son propre cordon d’alimentation. Le
contact des lames avec un fil sous tension « électrifie » les
pièces métalliques exposées de l’outil et peut électrocuter
l’utilisateur.
DANGER — Éloigner les mains des lames. Le contact
avec les lames peut provoquer des blessures graves.
AVERTISSEMENT — Seulement l’usage avec la poignée
et le garde est assemblé se couvrir convenablement la
taille-haies. L’usage de la taille-haies sans le garde ou la
poignée correct fournie peut avoir pour résultat sérieuse
personnelle la blessure.
Porter des gants épais lors de l’utilisation du ciseaux,
ainsi que lors de le nettoyage, l’installation et du retrait
des lames.
Remplace toute lame ou autre pièce craquée ou
endommagée. S’assurer que la lame est correctement
installée et solidement assujettie avant chaque utilisation.
Le non respect de cette directive peut occasionner
des blessures graves à l’opérateur ou aux personnes à
proximité, ou endommager l’unité.

enfants et ne laisser personne n’étant pas familiarisé
avec l’outil ou ces instructions utiliser l’outil. Dans les
mains de personnes n’ayant pas reçu des instructions
adéquates, les outils sont dangereux.
Entretenir les outils motorisés. Vérifier qu’aucune pièce
mobile n’est mal alignée ou bloquée, qu’aucune pièce
n’est brisée et s’assurer qu’aucun autre problème ne
risque d’affecter le bon fonctionnement de l’outil. En
cas de dommages faire réparer l’outil avant de l’utiliser
de nouveau. Beaucoup d’accidents sont causés par des
outils mal entretenus.
Garder les outils bien affûtés et propres. Des outils
correctement entretenus et dont les tranchants sont bien
affûtés risquent moins de se bloquer et sont plus faciles
à contrôler.
Utiliser l’outil, les accessoires et embouts, etc.,
conformément à ces instrutions pour les applications
pour lesquelles ils sont conçus, en tenant compte des
conditions et du type de travail à exécuter. L’usage
d’un outil motorisé pour des applications pour lesquelles
il n’est pas conçu peut être dangereux.
UTILISATION ET ENTRETIEN DE LA PILE
Ne recharger qu’avec l’appareil spécifié par le
fabricant. Un chargeur approprié pour un type de pile
peut créer un risque d’incendie s’il est utilisé avec un
autre type de pile.
Utiliser exclusivement le bloc-pile spécifiquement
indiqué pour l’outil. L’usage de tout autre bloc peut créer
un risque de blessures et d’incendie.
Lorsque le bloc-piles n’est pas en usage, le garder à
l’écart d’articles tels qu’attaches trombones, pièces de
monnaie, clous, vis ou autres petits objets métalliques
risquant d’établir le contact entre les deux bornes. La
mise en court-circuit des bornes de piles peut causer des
étincelles, des brûlures ou un incendie.
En cas d’usage abusif, du liquide peut s’échapper des
piles. Éviter tout contact avec ce liquide. En cas de
contact accidentel, rincer immédiatement les parties
atteintes avec de l’eau. En cas d’éclaboussure dans
les yeux consulter un médecin. Le liquide s’échappant
des piles peut causer des irritations ou des brûlures.
