The Güde hedge trimmer is fitted with two-hand safety
switch. The hedge trimmer operates only when the switch
(fig. 1/5) on the guiding handle (fig. 1/4) is switched by one
hand and the other hand switches the switch on the handle
(fig. 1/6).
Use:
Start trimming always as closest as possible to power
supply source in order to always have power supply behind
you.
Trapezoid trimming conforms to natural growing of plants
and allows the hedge to prosper optimally.
•
First trim the sides from below. Trim the upper side
either straight, roof-shaped or rounded as you like it.
•
The safety blade strip has alternatively arranged
cutters rounded on their sides to reduce injury hazard.
Extra shock protection avoids unpleasant rebounds
from walls, fences etc.
•
If the blade clogs, turn the trimmer off immediately,
disconnect from the power supply and then remove the
clogged piece.
•
Attention: Metal things, e.g. mesh wires, plant supports
etc. may result in damage to the blade strip.
•
The best cutting performance is achieved if you trim
the hedge so that the blade form 15° angle with the
hedge. (fig. 4)
•
In order to achieve equal hedge height, we
recommend install a guiding cord along the hedge. Cut
any protruding branches. (fig. 5)
•
Trim the side areas of the hedge by rounded
movements from below. (fig. 6)
