[. . . ] A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury. Protective equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries. 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. [. . . ] Carefully remove the machine from its packaging and check if the following parts are complete: ­ ­ ­ ­ ­ Hedgecutter Blade guard Battery Battery Charger Operating instructions When parts are missing or damaged, please contact your dealer. 1 Cutting blade 2 Front handle guard 3 Front handle with On/Off switch lever 4 Lock-off button for On/Off switch 5 Rear handle with On/Off switch 6 Battery 7 Ventilation slots 8 Blade guard 9 Battery charger 10 LED indicator 11 Serial number accessories shown or described are not part of the standard delivery scope of the product.

Typically the A-weighted noise levels of the product are: Sound pressure level 77 dB(A); Guaranteed sound power level lower than 90 dB(A). We declare under our sole responsibility that the product described under "Technical Data" is in conformity with the following standards or standardization documents: EN 60745 (battery powered product) and EN 60335 (battery charger) according to the provisions of the directives 2006/95/EC, 2004/108/EC, 98/37/EC (until 28 Dec 2009), 2006/42/EC (from 29 Dec 2009), 2000/14/EC. Eckerhard Strötgen Head of Product Certification Due to the intelligent charging method, the charging condition of the battery is automatically detected and the battery is charged with the optimum charging current, depending on battery temperature and voltage. This gives longer life to the battery and always leaves it fully charged when kept in the charger for storage. Note: The charging procedure is only possible when the battery temperature is within the allowable charging temperature range, see section "Technical Data". flashing Battery Charge Indicator 10 The charging procedure is signalled by a flashing battery charge indicator 10. Continuous Lighting of the Battery Charge Indicator 10 Continuous lighting of the battery charge indicator 10 indicates that the battery is fully charged or that the temperature of the battery is not within the allowable charging temperature range, and cannot be charged for this reason. the battery is charged as soon as the allowable charging temperature range is reached. When the battery is not inserted, continuous lighting of the battery charge indicator 10 indicates that the mains plug is inserted in the socket and that the battery charger is ready for operation. Charging Advice With continuous or several repetitive charging cycles without interruption, the charger can warm up. This is not meaningful and does not indicate a technical defect of the battery charger. A significantly reduced working period after charging indicates that the battery is used and must be replaced. The battery is equipped with a NTC temperature control which allows charging only within a temperature range of between 0 °C and 45 °C. Warning: Switch off and remove battery from machine before adjusting or cleaning. The blades continue to move for a fraction of a second after the hedgecutter is switched off. To ensure full capacity of the battery, completely charge the battery in the battery charger before using your power tool for the first time. The lithium ion battery can be charged at any time without reducing its service life. [. . . ] It has effective protection against internal overpressure and short circuiting as well as devices for the prevention of violent rupture and dangerous reverse current flow. the lithium-equivalent content in the battery is below applicable limit values. Therefore, the battery is not subject to national or international regulations pertaining to dangerous mediums, neither as an individual component nor when inserted into a machine. However, the regulations governing dangerous goods may be relevant when transporting several batteries. [. . . ]
