To cut a hedge top evenly, it helps to tie a string at the
desired hedge height and to trim along it, using it as a
reference line.
Attaching the chip receiver (optional accessory) on the
tool when trimming the hedge straight can avoid cut off
leaves’ being thrown away.
Rotate the handle for your easy handling before oper-
ation. Refer to the section titled “Handle mounting
position”.
To cut a hedge side evenly, it helps to cut from the
bottom upwards.
Trim boxwood or rhododendron from the base toward
the top for a nice appearance and good job.

(optional accessory)
CAUTION:
•
Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
the battery cartridge is removed before installing
or removing chip receiver.
NOTE:
•
When replacing the chip receiver, always wear
gloves so that hands and face does not directly
contact the blade. Failure to do so may cause
personal injury.
•
Always be sure to remove the blade cover
before installing the chip receiver.
•
The chip receiver receives cut-off leaves and
alleviates collecting thrown-away leaves. This
can be installed on either side of the tool.
