How to Use

How to Use your Hedgetrimmer

1.Inspect area to be cut before each use - remove objects which can be thrown or become entangled in the cutting blades.

2.Always keep the Hedgetrimmer in front of your body. Hold handle firmly with both hands and stand in a secure and stable position.

3.Allow the cutting blades to reach full speed before entering the material to be cut.

4.Always work going away from people and solid objects such as walls, large stones, trees, vehicles etc.

5.If blade stalls, immediately stop the Hedgetrimmer. Disconnect the Hedgetrimmer from the power source and clear jammed debris from the cutting blades. Inspect blades

and repair or replace as needed.

Top Cutting

Use a wide sweeping motion. See Fig. G. 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. H), tapering the

hedge inward at the top. This shape will expose more of the hedge, resulting in more uniformed growth.
