Use
The blade is designed for branch thickness of max.
10 mm. Cut all thick branches first with shears
before using the clipper.
Hold the safety switch down by gripping it with
one hand and use the other hand to hold the
handle. Press the on/off button (8). The clipper
will start. If the safety switch or on/off switch are
released, the clipper will stop.
Move the clipper from side to side with even
movements to clip the hedge. Always start from
the bottom and side, and repeat the movement
over the same area if the leaves are very thick.
Be very careful when clipping near walls, thick
branches, wire fencing or other obstructions. If the
blade comes in contact with an obstruction, it can
jam or kick back. Stop the clipper immediately if
the blade jams. The blade can be damaged if it
comes into contact with metal, stone or other
solid objects.
Sparks can occur in the motor compartment
during use. This is normal and does not mean the
clipper is defective.
Cleaning and maintenance
Always remove leaves, dirt etc from the clipper.
Wipe all parts of the clipper with a damp cloth.
Lubricate the two parts of the blade with oil.
Keep in a dry place when not in use. Always replace
the protective sleeve (11) on the blade when
transporting or storing the clipper.
