Electrical Safety
 Warning! Switch off, remove plug from mains before
adjusting, cleaning or if cable is cut, damaged or entan-
gled.
 The blades continue to move for a few seconds after
the hedgecutter is switched off. Caution! Do not touch
the moving blades.
Your machine is double insulated for safety and requires no
earth connection. The operating voltage is 230 V AC, 50 Hz
(for non-EU countries 220 V, 240 V as applicable). Only use
approved extension cables. Contact your Bosch Service Cen-
tre for details.
Extension cords should only be used if they comply with
H05VV-F or H05RN-F types.
It is recommended for increased electrical safety to use a Resid-
ual Current Device (RCD) with a tripping current of not more
than 30 mA. Always check your RCD every time you use it.
Refer to the instruction manual of the extension cord, lead,
reel manufacturer and your local wiring regulations.
For products not sold in GB:
WARNING: For your safety, it is required that the plug at-
tached to the product is connected with the extension cord.
The coupling of the extension cord must be protected against
splash water, be made of rubber or coated with rubber. The
extension cord must be used with a cable strain relief.
The connection lead must be inspected for signs of damage at
regular intervals and may only be used if in perfect condition.
If the supply cable on the product is damaged, it must only be
replaced by a Bosch Service Centre.
Products sold in GB only: Your product is fitted with a
BS 1363/A approved electric plug with internal fuse (ASTA
approved to BS 1362).
If the plug is not suitable for your socket outlets, it should be
cut off and an appropriate plug fitted in its place by an author-
ised customer service agent. The replacement plug should
have the same fuse rating as the original plug.
The severed plug must be disposed of to avoid a possible
shock hazard and should never be inserted into a mains sock-
et elsewhere.
Products sold in AUS and NZ only: Use a residual current de-
vice (RCD) with a rated residual current of 30 mA or less.
