Hedge trimmer safety warnings

uKeep all parts of the body away from the blade. Do not

remove cut material or hold material to be cut when

blades are moving. Blades continue to move after the

switch is turned off. A moment of inattention while oper-

ating the hedge trimmer may result in serious personal in-

jury.

uCarry the hedge trimmer by the handle with the blade

stopped and taking care not to operate any power

switch. Proper carrying of the hedge trimmer will de-

crease the risk of inadvertent starting and resultant per-

sonal injury from the blades.

uWhen transporting or storing the hedge trimmer, al-

ways fit the blade cover. Proper handling of the hedge

trimmer will decrease the risk of personal injury from the

blades.

uWhen clearing jammed material or servicing the unit,

make sure all power switches are off and the battery

pack is removed or disconnected. Unexpected actu-

ation of the hedge trimmer while clearing jammed mater-

ial or servicing may result in serious personal injury.

uHold the hedge trimmer by insulated gripping sur-

faces only, because the blade may contact hidden wir-

ing. Blades contacting a "live" wire may make exposed

metal parts of the hedge trimmer "live" and could give the

operator an electric shock.

uKeep all power cords and cables away from cutting

area. Power cords or cables may be hidden in hedges or

bushes and can be accidentally cut by the blade.

uDo not use the hedge trimmer in bad weather condi-

tions, especially when there is a risk of lightning. This

decreases the risk of being struck by lightning.

Additional safety warnings

uThis tool is not intended for use by persons (including

children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental cap-

abilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless

they have been given supervision or instruction concern-

ing use of the appliance by a person responsible for their

safety.

Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not

play with the appliance.

uWhen working with the machine, always hold it firmly

with both hands and provide for a secure stance. The

power tool is guided more secure with both hands.

uAlways ensure all handles and guards are fitted when

using the machine. Never attempt to use an incomplete

machine or one fitted with an unauthorized modification.

uAlways lubricate the cutting blade with protective

spray before use.

uAlways wait until the machine has come to a complete

stop before placing it down.

uOther persons and animals should remain at a distance of

3metres or more when the machine is being used. The

operator is responsible for third persons in the working

area.

uNever grasp the blade of the hedge trimmer.

uChildren or persons unfamiliar with these instructions

must not operate the hedge trimmer. Local regulations

may restrict the age of the operator.

uNever cut a hedge while people, especially children or

pets, are nearby.

uThe user is responsible for accidents or hazards occurring

to other people or their property.

uDo not operate the hedge timmer when barefoot or wear-

ing open sandals, always wear substantial footwear and

long trousers. The use of sturdy gloves, non-skid footwear

and safety glasses is recommended. Do not wear loose

clothing or jewellery which can be caught in moving parts.

uThoroughly inspect the area where the hedge trimmer is

to be used and remove all wires and other foreign objects.

uPrior to operation, check cutter blades, blade bolts and

cutter assembly for wear or damage. Do not operate with

a damaged or excessively worn cutting device.

uKnow how to stop the hedge trimmer quickly in an emer-

gency.

uCut a hedge only in daylight or in good artificial light.

uNever operate the hedge trimmer with defective guards

or without the guard in place.

uAlways ensure all handles and guards supplied are fitted

when using the hedge trimmer. Never attempt to use an

incomplete hedge trimmer or one with an unauthorized

modification.

uNever hold the hedge trimmer by the guard.

uWhen operating the hedge trimmer, ensure to keep

proper footing and balance at all times.

uAlways be aware of your surroundings and stay alert for

possible hazards that you may not hear whilst operating

the hedge trimmer.

uKeep all nuts, bolts and screws tight to ensure that the

hedge trimmer is always in a safe working condition.

uThe hedge trimmer should be stored in a dry, high or

locked up place out of the reach of children.

uReplace worn or damaged parts for safety.

uDo not attempt to repair the machine unless you are quali-

fied to do so.

uEnsure replacement parts fitted are Bosch-approved.

uTo safeguard against contact with the moving cutter

blade, this hedge trimmer is constructed with two

handles each with a blade control (switch). To operate

the hedge trimmer, both controls must be actuated simul-

taneously. Do not use the tool, if it runs without a

switch being actuated or just one switch being actu-

ated.

Recommendations for Optimal Handling of the

Battery Pack

uDo not open the battery. There is a risk of short-circuit-

ing.
