571551 - Petrol Hedge Trimmer Owner’s Manual - May 2014

8  Hedge trimmer functioning 

The Morrison hedge trimmer is equipped with quick stop 
function which stops the knife immediately once the throttle is 
released to prevent a possible accident. 
If you want to switch off the machine, you must move the 
switch 

(pict. a; item 3

) into the “OFF”position.

•  When cutting hedges comply with regulations valid in the 

relevant country and local regulations. 

•  If the branches are bigger than the maximal cutting power, 

they must be removed by other machinery. 

•  If heavy pruning is required, you should work in stages. 

9  Work safely and 

with prudence

1.  Hold the hedge trimmer safely in both hands! 

2.  Trim and cut only wood and wooden objects! 

3.  Work with consideration and do not threaten anyone when 

cutting. Work calmly with prudence! 

4.  Work when it is light and visible! 

5.  Constantly watch the cutting knife! 

6.  Never cut below shoulder height! 

7.  Work only with a sharpened and correctly installed 

cutting knife! 

8.  Do not stand on a ladder when working! 

9.  Work only on sound and stable ground!

10  Maintenance Instructions

ATTENTION! The following instructions are 
valid for standard working conditions. In case 
of aggravated conditions such as heavy dust

11  Fuel data

Refuelling

Mix unleaded petrol with brand oil for two-stroke engines with 
air cooling in the 1:30 ratio. This means that for example 5 l of 
petrol is mixed with 0,16 l of oil. 

12  Repairs/engine failures 

Repairs that require special professional knowledge should be carried out by authorised service centres. 
Unprofessional interference can damage the machine or endanger your safety.
