• Do not press the throttle trigger during this operation!
Proceed as follows:

apply the throttle trigger again.

• You can swivel the handle even with the engine idling because the hedge-trim-
mer is equipped with a blade brake that maintains the blades at a standstill.
HEDGE TRIMMING TECHNIQUES
Trim sides of a hedge first, and then the top.
Vertical cut:
• Use an arcing cut from the bottom upwards, then downwards to use both sides
of the blades.
