15 Switching the Hedge Trimmer On and Off
15.1 Switching On
WARNING
Never operate your hedge trimmer if it is modified, damaged,
improperly adjusted or maintained, not completely and
securely assembled or not functioning properly, @ 6.4. To
reduce the risk of personal injury, always wear proper
clothing and protective apparel, including proper eye
protection, when operating your hedge trimmer, @ 6.3.
Before switching on:
► Make sure you have a secure and firm footing.
► Stand upright.
► Always hold and operate the hedge trimmer with one hand
firmly on the control handle and the other hand firmly on
the loop handle or front handle.
To switch the hedge trimmer on:
► Unlock the retaining latch (1) by pushing it forward with
your thumb. Hold it in this unlocked position.
► While holding the retaining latch, squeeze the trigger
switch (2) with your index finger.
The cutting blades will start moving.
The motor will not switch on unless the retaining latch is
pushed forward and the trigger switch is pressed at the
same time. Once the trigger switch is activated, you may
release the retaining latch. Holding the Ergo-Lever (3) down
keeps the trigger switch unlocked.
The further the trigger switch is depressed, the faster the
cutting blades will operate.
If you release the trigger switch and Ergo-Lever, you have to
unlock the tool again with the retaining latch.
15.2 Switching Off
WARNING
To reduce the risk of personal injury from unintended
activation or unauthorized use, switch off the motor and
remove the battery before transporting or putting the hedge
trimmer down.
To switch the hedge trimmer off:
► Release the trigger switch and Ergo-Lever so that the
trigger switch springs back to the locked position. In the
locked position, activation of the trigger switch is once
again blocked by the retaining latch.
16.1 Testing the Controls
Before starting work, confirm that the retaining latch (1),
trigger switch (2) and the Ergo-Lever (3) are undamaged
and functioning properly.
