Always keep both hands on the hedge trimmer/branch lopper handles. Never hold shrubs or branches with one
hand and operate hedge trimmer /branch lopper with the other. Failure to heed this warning can result in serious
injury or even death
.
WARNING:
Clear the area to be cut before each use. Remove all objects such as cords, lights, wire, or loose string which can
become entangled in the cutting blade and create a risk of serious personal injury.
When operating the hedge trimmer/branch lopper, keep the mains lead behind the trimmer/lopper. Never drape it
over the hedge /branches being cut.
Do not force the hedge trimmer/branch lopper through heavy shrubbery. This can cause the blades to bind and
slow down. If the blades slow down, reduce the pace or diameter of the branches.
If blades become jammed, stop the motor, allow the blades to stop, and disconnect the plug from the power source
before attempting to remove the obstruction.
If desired, you can use a string to help cut your hedge level. Decide how high you want the hedge. Stretch a piece
of string along the hedge at the desired height. Trim the hedge just above the guide line of string. Trim the side of a
hedge so that it will be slightly narrower at the top. More of the hedge will be exposed when shaped this way, and
it will be more uniform. Take extra care not to cut or entangle the string in the cutting blades of the trimmer.
Wear gloves when trimming/cutting branches, thorny or prickly growth hedges. When trimming new growth, use a
wide sweeping action, so that the stems are fed directly into the cutting blade. Older growth will have thicker
stems and will be trimmed easiest by using a sawing movement.
