•
The twin-bladed cutters rotate in opposite directions, thus enab-
ling cutting in both directions (see Figure 8).
•
It is recommended to tie a guide line of string or the like along the
hedge so that you cut the hedge to a level height. Cut off all bran-
ches which protrude beyond the guide line (see Figure 9).
•
Cut the sides of the hedge with curve-shaped movements from
the bottom up (see Figure 10).
7. Care and maintenance
•
Always keep the tool clean and dry and protect it from oil and gre-
ase.
•
Wear safety goggles to protect your eyes during cleaning.
•
Always keep the tool and the air vents clean in order to ensure
safe and correct use.
•
Check the ventilation grilles at the motor and at the On/Off switch
for dust and foreign bodies. Remove layers of dust with a soft
brush.
•
If required, use a soft damp rag to wipe the tool housing clean.
You can use a mild cleaning agent but no alcohol, petrol or other
cleaning agent.
•
Never use aggressive cleaning agents to clean plastic parts.
•
Lubricate all moving parts regularly.
•
Check all fasteners regularly. Vibrations might cause fasteners to
become loose in the course of time.
•
The cutters should be cleaned and lubricated at regular intervals
in order to ensure best performance at all times. Remove deposits
with a brush and apply a thin film of oil (Figure 11).
•
For storage, the hedge trimmer can be hung up on a nail, screw or
similar in a borehole on the impact guard, with blade guard moun-
ted (Fig. 12)
