PIVOTING THE TRIMMER HEAD (FIG. F)

WARNING!

adjustment work

.

Push the angle adjustment locking knob(3) inward. 
Grasp the power head motor housing and rotate the power head to either of the 5 positions 

(Fig. F).
Release the locking knob.
It should snap back into a seated position. If it does not, rotate the power head back and 

forth slightly until the button snaps back into its seated position. The power head is now 

locked into position and ready for use.

PUTTING ON THE SHOULDER STRAP (FIG. G1, G2)

Place the shoulder strap(14) over your left shoulder (Fig. G2).
Fasten the snap hook on the securing clip on the shaft (Fig. G1).
The length of the shoulder strap can be adjusted.

USING THE TELESCOPIC HEDGE TRIMMER (FIG. H-K)

The telescopic Trimmer is a dual- purpose tool. It is designed to trim and shape tall, hard-

to reach hedges and bushes with its extended reach and pivoting power head. You can 

also adjust the Telescopic Trimmer to trim and shape smaller hedges and shrubs near 

the ground without having to bend or stoop.
To use the Telescopic Trimmer for trimming tall, hard-to-reach hedges or shrubs, hold 

the Telescopic Trimmer at the positions shown. Pivot the power head to several different 

positions to shape or sculpt shrubs or hedges (Fig. H).
To use the Telescopic Trimmer for trimming smaller hedges or shrubs, hold the Telescopic 

Trimmer at the positions as shown (Fig. I).
To use the Telescopic Trimmer for trimming the bottoms and sides of hedges and shrubs, 

hold the Telescopic Trimmer at the positions as shown (Fig. J).
To use the Telescopic Trimmer for trimming low lying foliage or ground cover, hold the 

Telescopic Trimmer at the position as shown (Fig. K).
Use the Telescopic Trimmer properly. Always wear eye protection, rubber gloves, and 

substantial foot wear while using the Telescopic Trimmer. Always maintain proper footing 

and balance and never overreach when using Telescopic Trimmer.
Before starting the Telescopic Trimmer, hold the tool with both hands on the grip areas. 

Make sure that the cutter blade is not touching anything.
Do not try to cut too much at one time. This can cause the Telescopic Trimmer to slow 

down or get jammed, reducing the cutting efficiency.

Do not force the Telescopic Trimmer through dense growth. A slight back and forth 

sawing action may ease the cutting of larger, more dense growth. If the Telescopic 

Trimmer begins to slow down or becomes jammed, immediately turn Telescopic Trimmer 

off and remove the battery pack off. Wait for the cutting blade to cool before removing 

any blockage.
Do not try to cut branches larger than 18mm in diameter.
For best results, trim the sides of hedges with an upward sweeping motion. Trim the 

hedges so that the top is slightly narrower than the bottom.
