Hedge Trimmer  WG212E
4) POWER TOOL USE AND CARE 
a) 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. 
b) 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.
c) 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. 
d) 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. 
e) 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. 
f)  Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. 
Properly maintained cutting tools with 
sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind 
and are easier to control. 
g) 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. 
5) SERVICE
a) 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.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY 
POINTS FOR YOUR HEDGE 
TRIMMER
1. 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. A moment 
of inattention while operating the hedge 
trimmer may result in serious personal 
injury.
2. Carry the hedge trimmer by the 
handle with the cutter blade stopped. 
When transporting or storing the 
hedge trimmer always fit the cutting 
device cover. Proper handling of the 
hedge trimmer will reduce possible 
personal injury from the cutter blades.
3. 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.
4. Keep cable away from cutting area. 
During operation the cable may be hidden 
in shrubs and can be accidentally cut by 
the blade.
5. Check the hedge for foreign objects, 
e.g. wire fences
6. Hold the hedge trimmer properly, e.g. 
with both hands if two handles are 
provided
