NOISE INFORMATION A weighted sound pressure A weighted sound power Wear ear protection LpA: 69.6dB(A) KpA= 3 dB(A) LwA: 82.45dB(A) 9 KwA= 3 dB(A) VIBRATION INFORMATION Vibration total values (triax vector sum) determined according to EN 60745: Vibration emission value: ah = 2.2m/s2 Uncertainty K = 1.5m/s² The declared vibration total value may be used for comparing one tool with another, and may also be used in a preliminary assessment of exposure. WARNING: The vibration emission value during actual use of the power tool can differ from the declared value depending on the ways in which the tool is used dependant on the following examples and other variations on how the tool is used: How the tool is used and the materials being cut or drilled. The tool being in good condition and well maintained The use the correct accessory for the tool and ensuring it is sharp and in good condition. The tightness of the grip on the handles and if any anti vibration accessories are used. And the tool is being used as intended by its design Cordless Hedge Trimmer WG261E WG261E.X and these instructions. This tool may cause hand-arm vibration syndrome if its use is not adequately managed. WARNING: To be accurate, an estimation of exposure level in the actual conditions of use should also take account of all parts of the operating cycle such as the times when the tool is switched off and when it is running idle but not actually doing the job. This may significantly reduce the exposure level over the total working period. Helping to minimise your vibration exposure risk. ALWAYS use sharp chisels, drills and blades Maintain this tool in accordance with these instructions and keep well lubricated (where appropriate) If the tool is to be used regularly then invest in anti vibration accessories. Plan your work schedule to spread any high vibration tool use across a number of days. 4. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS NOTE: Before using the tool, read the instruction book carefully. Intended use The machine is intended for cutting and trimming hedges and bushes in domestic use. 10 WARNING! Do not use the product without attaching the guard and front handle.

NOTE: If the handle is assembled incorrectly, the tool will not power on. Checking the battery charge condition(Fig. C only applies for the battery pack with battery indicator light) Installing and Removing the battery pack FIGURE See Fig. A See Fig. B1, B2, B3 See Fig. C See Fig. D Charging the battery pack Your battery pack is UNCHARGED, you must charge before use. Charging the battery pack More details can be found in charger's manual. OPERATION Starting and stopping See Fig. E1, E2 Top cutting WARNING: If any parts are missing, damaged or broken, do not operate your hedge trimmer until all damaged parts have been replaced or repaired. Failure to do so could result in serious personal injury. DO NOT USE WITHOUT FRONT HANDLE AND SAFETY GUARD. See Fig. F1 Side cutting See Fig. F2 Lubricating the Cutting Blade NOTE: It is important to use only the recommended standard lubricating oil (WD-40) to avoid damage to the blade. See Fig. G HOW TO USE YOUR HEDGE TRIMMER Note that the front switch lever can be activated on three sides, giving you many choices for a comfortable grip. Before cutting an area, inspect it first and remove any foreign objects that could become thrown or entangled in the blades. Always hold the trimmer with both hands and with the blade away from you before turning it on. When trimming new growth, use a wide sweeping action so that the stems are fed directly into the blade. (See Fig. F1&F2) Allow the cutting blades to reach full speed before cutting. When operating, keep the cutting blades away from people and objects such as walls, large stones, trees, vehicles, etc. If the blade stalls, immediately stop the trimmer. Release the two Switch components (6&7) before attempting to clear jammed debris from the cutting blades. Wear gloves when trimming thorny or prickly growth. Do not attempt to cut stems that are too thick for the cutting blade. TOP CUTTING Use a wide sweeping motion (See Fig. F1). A slight downward tilt of the cutting blades in the direction of motion gives the best cutting results. SIDE CUTTING When trimming the sides of the hedge, begin at the bottom and cut upwards (See Fig. F2), tapering Cordless Hedge Trimmer WG261E WG261E.X the hedge inward at the top. This shape will expose more of the hedge, resulting in a more uniformed growth. 5. MAINTENANCE Remove battery before carrying out any adjustment, servicing or maintenance. There are no user serviceable parts in your power tool. Never use water or chemical cleaners to clean your power tool. Wipe clean with a dry cloth. Always store your power tool in a dry place. Keep the motor ventilation slots clean. Keep all working controls free of dust. 7.
