Safety Information
Electricity (Continued)
• Power tools plug must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. DO
NOT use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified
plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
• DO NOT expose this power tool to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power
tool will increase the risk of electric shock. DO NOT abuse the power cord. Never
use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep the cord
away from heat, oil and sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled
cords increase the risk of electric shock. When operating a power tool, use an
extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use
reduces the risk of electric shock.
• IMPORTANT: Make sure that the electric circuit is fused, and that the power,
voltage and frequency of the motor is supported by your mains supply. Also, make
sure that your power supply is earthed. Connect your machine to earth. Never
open the ON/OFF switchbox. However, if it should become necessary to do so,
contact a qualified electrician. Make sure that you will never touch live contacts,
specifically when you plug or unplug your machine. This machine and its power
cord must never get into contact with water.
• Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators,
ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is
earthed or grounded.
• To prevent electric shock, use only with an extension cord suitable for outdoor
use. For additional protection, the installation of a residual current device (RCD)
having a rated residual operating current not exceeding 30mA is advisable.
• Before use, check that the extension cord is in good condition. When using an
extension cord, make sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your
product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in
loss of power and overheating.
• Do not allow any part of the machine to make contact with water while it is in
operation. If the appliance becomes wet while turned off, wipe dry before starting.
Do not touch the appliance or its plug with wet hands or while standing in water.
Wearing rubber boots offers some protection.
• Before use, check the supply and extension cord for signs of damage or aging. If
the cord becomes damaged during use, disconnect the cord from the supply
immediately. If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the
manufacturer or a qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.
!
Double-Insulated Appliances
In a double-insulated appliance, two systems of insulation are provided instead of
grounding. Servicing a double-insulated appliance requires extreme care and
knowledge of the system, and should be performed only by qualified service
personnel. Replacement parts for a double-insulated appliance must be identical
to the parts they replace.
!
• The operating noise of the machine can damage your hearing. When wearing
protection such as earplugs or ear defenders to protect your hearing. Long-term
and regular users are advised to have hearing checked regularly. Be especially
vigilant and cautious when wearing ear protection because your ability to hear
alarm warnings will be reduced.
• Noise emissions for this equipment is unavoidable. Carry out noisy work at
approved times and for certain periods. Limit the working time to a minimum. For
your personal protection and protection of people working nearby it is also
advisable for them to wear hearing protection.
• See Certificate of Conformity section for Outdoor Noise declaration of
. . conformity.
www.hyundaipowerproducts.co.uk
10
Safety Information
Vibrations (Where Applicable)
• Prolonged use of hand held (operated) machines will cause the user to feel the
effects of/from vibrations. These vibrations can lead to white finger (Raynaud’s
phenomenon) or carpal tunnel syndrome. This condition reduces the ability of the
hand to feel and regulate temperature, causing numbness and heat sensations
and may cause nerve damage and circulatory tissue death.
• Not all factors that lead to white finger disease are known, but cold weather,
smoking and other diseases that affect blood vessels and blood circulation as well
as large and long-lasting impact of shocks are considered factors in the formation
of white finger. Note the following to reduce the risk of white finger and carpal
tunnel syndrome;
• Wear gloves and keep your hands warm.
• Take regular breaks.
• All of the above precautions may help reduce the risk of white finger disease but
not rule out the carpal tunnel syndrome. Long-term and regular users are therefore
recommended to observe the condition of your hands and fingers. Seek medical
attention immediately if any of the above symptoms should occur.
Noise (Where Applicable)
!
!
Residual Risks
Even when tool is used as prescribed it is not possible to eliminate all residual risk
factors. The following hazards may arise in connection with the tool’s construction
and design:
1. Damage to lungs if an effective dust mask is not worn.
2. Damage to hearing if effective hearing protection is not worn.
Health defects resulting from vibration emission if the power tool is being used over
longer period of time or not adequately managed and properly maintained.

Operation
Cutting A Hedge
1. Cut and remove branches exceeding the cutting capacity of this product using
a proper pruner before operation.
2. Always hold the product firmly with both hands on the front handle and rear
handle. Never operate this product using only one hand.
3. Do not rush and do not attempt to cut too much with one stroke of the cutting
device.
4. First cut both sides from the bottom cutting upwards to the top. This will prevent
any of the cuttings falling into the path of the area still to be cut. See image 1.
5. After cutting the sides proceed to the top. Try to keep the cutting device angled
at approximately 15° to the cutting surface. See image 2.
6. When cutting wide hedges with the cutting area in sight, move the cutting
blade lightly through the cutting surface in a sweeping motion, following the
shape of the hedge or shrub. A slight tilt downwards of the cutting blade in the
direction of motion is recommended for optimum cutting performance.
7. Cut in a number of stages if the area being cut is particularly long to achieve a
better result; smaller cuttings will allow for easy composting.
!
When operating the hedge trimmer, keep the extension cord behind the
trimmer. Never drape it over the hedge being trimmed.
Image 1 Image 2
NOTE: When shaping it is advisable to achieve
a trapezoidal shape (See image 3). A
trapezoidal cut corresponds to the natural
growth of plants and results in optimal hedge
growth, as it will expose more light to the lower
end of the hedge.

Shoulder Strap (E) and the Pole Grip (Q). The HYP2HT550E can fatigue arms quickly,
using the Shoulder Strap (E) and Pole Grip (Q) will help reduce fatigue.
To move the Pole Grip (Q) into a more suitable position, simply twist and add force
in the direction suitable.

Maintenance & Care
Clearing Jams
When trimming, pieces of debris from the hedge can become lodged between the
blades, causing the machine to stop. To clear the obstruction put the machine down
on a level surface, with the power supply switch off. Clear the jam and proceed with
operation
!
WARNING! When carrying out any maintenance, ensure the machine is
unplugged from mains power supply.
To ensure safety and reliability, repairs should only be carried out with genuine
replacement parts only.
!
Cleaning
To clean the body of the machine if required, use a damp cloth and mild soap. DO
NOT use cleaning chemicals, penetrating oils or fuel to clean the body of the machine.
This can cause damage and weaken the plastic.
Blade Lubrication
Firstly remove any debris from the blades. Keeping away from the body of the machine,
apply light machine oil or similar to the parts which make contact.
Blade Damage
If whilst trimming you hit any wire fences, stone posts etc. damage will occur to the
blades, such as nicks or gauges. If the damage does not interfere with the motion of
the blades, no action is required. If there is interference, using a file or sharpening
stone/block, reduce the size of the nick/gauge. If damage is unmaintainable, please
contact us.
