Adjusting the Telescoping Pole
1. Disconnect the pole hedge trimmer from the power supply.
2. Unclip the cam-lock to release the pole (Fig. 7).
3. Extend the pole to the desired length (Fig. 8).
NOTE: Push poles toward each other to shorten the pole
or pull them away from each other to lengthen the pole.
Only extend the pole to the minimum length required to
reach the hedges to be trimmed.
4. Lock the pole in position by closing the cam-lock (Fig. 9),
and ensure that the pole is secure. If the pole telescopes
when the cam-lock is closed, the nut may need tightening.

WARNING!
Extend the telescoping pole only to the
length required to reach the hedges being trimmed. Adjust
your hand placement on the telescoping pole of the pole
hedge trimmer in order to keep proper balance.
Do not attempt to use the pole hedge trimmer at a length
which does not allow you to achieve proper footing and
balance at all times!
