hedge trimmer, e.g.
- repairing a damaged cable
- cleaning the blades
- troubleshooting
- cleaning and maintenance
or before leaving the tool unattended.
1.2 The hedge trimmer can cause serious injuries!
Read the directions for use carefully in order to
acquaint yourself with the correct way to handle,

hands.
1.4 When working with the hedge trimmer, wear
sturdy shoes and make sure of your footing.
1.5 Never work with the hedge trimmer in the rain
or on wet hedges and never leave the hedge
trimmer outdoors. The hedge trimmer must not
be used if it is wet.
1.6 We recommend that you wear safety goggles
and ear-muffs when working with the hedge
trimmer.
1.7 Wear suitable working clothes such as rubber
gloves and non-slip shoes. Do not wear loose

1.17 Examine the cutting system regularly for signs
of damage and, if necessary, arrange for the
hedge trimmer to be professionally repaired by
the ISC Customer Service Center or a specialist
workshop.
1.18 If the blades become jammed, e.g. due to thick
branches or the like, switch off and unplug the
hedge trimmer immediately. Only then are you
to remove the cause of the obstruction.

children's reach.
1.20 During transportation and storage of the hedge
trimmer, keep the blades covered at all times
with the special guard.

and do not use it on jobs for which it is not
intended, i.e. you are allowed to use the hedge
trimmer only to cut hedges, shrubs and perennials.
1.22 Use only cables and connectors approved for
outdoor use: power cable HO7RN-F 2x1.0 with
integral two-plug plug; extension cable HO7RNF
3G1.5 with rain-water-protected earthing-pin
plug and earthing-contact coupling.
The use of a leakage-current or earth-leakage
circuit-breaker is recommended for operating
electric tools. Ask your electrician!
1.23 The hedge trimmer requires regular inspection
and maintenance. Always replace damaged
blades in pairs. If the hedge trimmer suffers any
damage from impact (falling on hard ground
etc.), have it checked immediately by a specialist.
1.24 Look after your hedge trimmer carefully. Keep
it clean and sharp to ensure efficient and safe
cutting. Follow the maintenance and cleaning
instructions.

prohibits the use of electric hedge trimmers by
persons aged 17 or less. Persons aged 16 and
above may only use electric hedge trimmers if
supervised by an adult.

or excessively worn cutting system.
