Noise/Vibration Information

Sound emission values determined according to
EN 60745-2-13.
Typically the A-weighted noise levels of the product are:
Sound pressure level 84 dB(A); Uncertainty K=3 dB
sound power level 95 dB(A); Uncertainty K=1 dB.

The vibration level given in this information sheet has been
measured in accordance with a standardised test given in
EN 60745 and may be used to compare one tool with
another. It may be used for a preliminary assessment of
exposure.
The declared vibration emission level represents the main
applications of the tool. However if the tool is used for
different applications, with different accessories or insertion
tools or is poorly maintained, the vibration emission may
differ. This may significantly increase the exposure level over
the total working period.
An estimation of the level of exposure to vibration should also
take into account the times when the tool is switched off or
when it is running but not actually doing the job. This may
significantly reduce the exposure level over the total working
period.
Identify additional safety measures to protect the operator
from the effects of vibration such as: maintain the tool and the
accessories, keep the hands warm, organisation of work
patterns.

Battery Charging
 Do not use other battery chargers. The supplied battery
charger is designed for the Lithium-Ion battery in your
garden product.
 Observe the mains voltage! The voltage of the power
supply must correspond with the data given on the
nameplate of the battery charger. Battery chargers
marked with 230 V can also be operated with 220 V.
The battery is equipped with temperature monitoring that
allows charging only in the temperature range between 0 °C
and 45 °C. In this manner, a high battery service life is
achieved.
Note: The battery supplied is partially charged. 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. Interrupting the charging procedure
does not damage the battery.
The "Electronic Cell Protection (ECP)" protects the lithium-
ion battery against deep discharging. When the battery is run
down or discharged, the garden product is shut off by means
of a protective circuit: The garden product no longer
operates.
been automatically switched off. The battery can be
damaged.
Observe the notes for disposal of the battery.
Charging Procedure
The charging procedure starts as soon as the mains plug of
the battery charger is plugged into the socket outlet and the
battery 17 is inserted into the charging compartment.
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.
Do not continue to press the On/Off
switch after the garden product has
