8 WORKING INSTRUCTIONS
Keep your fingers away from the blades.
8.1 Shrub shear (Fig 6)
8.1.1 Cutting hedges
Before cutting check the hedge for foreign objects e. g. wire fences.
Cut stems up to 6 mm in thickness. When cutting, move steadily along the line of cut, so that
stems are fed
directly into the cutter blades. The double edge of the cutting blade enables
cutting to either direction, or with a
side to side motion.
After use replace the blade transport guard.
Recommended cutting/trimming times:
•
Cut hedges with deciduous leaves in June and October.
•
Cut evergreen hedges in April and August.
•
Cut conifer and other fast growing shrubs approx. every six weeks from May onwards.
8.2 Grass shear (Fig 7)
8.2.1 Edging
Guide the machine along the edge of the lawn. Do not allow the blade to contact paved
surfaces, stones or
garden walls, since this will wear the blade rapidly.
