TRIMMING A HEDGE
Use the trimmer properly. Always wear eye
protection, rubber gloves, and substantial foot
wear while using the trimmer (see Figure 9).
Always maintain proper footing and balance.
Never overreach when using trimmer. Before
starting the trimmer, hold the unit with both
hands on the grip areas. Make sure that the
cutter blade is not touching anything.
Use smooth steady sweeping motions to trim
new growth (see Figure 10). Do not try to cut
too much at one time. This can cause the
trimmer to slow down or get jammed, reducing
the cutting efficiency.
Do not force the trimmer through dense
growth. A slight back and forth sawing action
may ease the cutting of larger, more dense
growth. If the trimmer begins to slow down,
reduce the rate of speed at which you are
trying to cut.
If the trimmer becomes jammed, immediately
turn trimmer off. Disconnect trimmer from the
power supply and remove the jammed debris
from the cutter blades.
