Operating the hedge trimmer

WARNING. Do not use the hedge trimmer in the rain or store the hedge trimmer in wet conditions.

WARNING. If cordset is cut or damaged remove it emmediately from the power point.

This product requires the use of two hands to ensure safe operation.

Inspect the area to be cut before starting. Remove any objects or debris that could be thrown, jammed or become entangled in the blades.

Adopt a stable stance always keeping the Hedge Trimmer in front of your body. Grip the front handle bar switch with one hand. With the other hand grip the rear handle and with your fingers squeeze the trigger switch.

Allow the cutting blades to reach full speed before commencing the cut.

When cutting always move in a forward direction and never backwards, you could fall over unseen obstacles.

Never work towards people or solid objects such as walls, trees or vehicles etc.

If during cutting the blade stalls, stop the Hedge Trimmer immediately and disconnect it from the mains supply before investigating the cause.

Remove any jammed debris from the blades and examine them for any damage before re-commencing cutting.

Always replace any damaged blades.

Shaping

1. Trim a hedge so that it is wider at the bottom than the top.

2.This improves light penetration and promotes healthy growth.

3.Narrow the hedge approximately 100mm for every metre in height.

4.A bush can be round or

column shaped.

Cutting

1. Assume a secure position, using two hands to hold the trimmer and switch on.

2. Trim both sides of the hedge, starting at the bottom. This prevents cuttings falling into the area yet to be cut.

3.Pass the blade lightly through the surface of the hedge. Do not attempt to cut too deep.

4.Trim the top of the hedge.

5.For older hedges that require cutting back substantially, use pruning shears to cut the thicker branches and then finish the job with the hedge trimmer.

WARNING. Do not let the blade come into contact with fencing wire or any other object that could damage it.

Pruning

Your hedge trimmer is versatile. It can also be used for trimming back new growth from small shrubs onto the driveway or into the garden.

Lubrication

WARNING. Always ensure that the trimmer is switched off and the plug is removed from the power point before making any adjustments.

1.After each use, clean the blades and lightly lubricate with general purpose oil or spray lubricant.
