8. Notes on working practice
쎲
The hedge trimmer can be used not only for trim-
ming hedges but for trimming shrubs and bushes
as well.
쎲
For optimum trimming performance, guide the
blade teeth at an angle of approx. 15° to the
hedge (see Fig. 5).
쎲
Since the blades cut on both sides and run in
opposite directions to each other, you can trim in
both directions (see Fig. 6).
쎲
To achieve a hedge with a uniform height it is
recommended that you stretch a piece of string
along the edge of the hedge for guidance. Then
simply cut away all twigs projecting above the
line (see Fig. 7).
쎲
The sides of the hedge should be trimmed with
arc-type movements from below upwards (see
Fig. 8).
9. Maintenance, care and storage
쎲
Always switch off the machine and pull the plug
before you start to clean the machine.
쎲
For optimum results at all times you should regu-
larly clean and lubricate the blades. Remove any
deposits with a brush and apply a light film of oil
(see Fig. 9).
Use biologically degradable oil.
쎲
Clean the plastic body with gentle domestic clea-
ning agent and a damp cloth. Never use aggres-
sive media or solvents.
쎲
It is imperative that you prevent water from pene-
trating the machine. Never spray the machine
down with water.
쎲
For storage purposes the hedge trimmer can be
fastened to the wall with suitable screws and
dowels (see Fig. 10).
10. Troubleshooting
쎲
The machine does not start: Check that the
power cable is correctly connected and check
the mains fuses. If the machine still does not
work even with connected voltage, please
contact the helpline.
11. Disposal
Important!
The hedge trimmer and its accessories are made of
a diversity of materials such as, e.g. metal and plas-
tic.
Defective parts must be disposed of as special
waste. Ask your specialist dealer or local authority for
details about where they can be disposed of!
