How to use
•
The blades spacing is 28 mm. Cutting too thick twigs or metal wires can not only break the blade
teeth but also give damage to the drive mechanism. When trimming leaves and thin twigs, guide
the blades as drawing a half circle on the surface, and you will get a better finish.
•
Running the engine at high speed with the blades jammed up can shorten the life of clutch parts.
When the blades have been jammed by thick twigs, stop operation at once and draw your unit
off the objects after stopping the engine. When clipping comparatively thick twigs, move your
unit slowly back and forth like a saw, and they can be cut to a fine finish.
NOTE:
When a new unit is first operated, in the first few minutes grease may come out of the gear
case. But, since this is excess grease, there is no cause for alarm. For next use, just wipe it off with the
engine stopped.
Hedge trimming techniques
Trim sides of a hedge first and then top.
Vertical cut:
With the 2-sided blade model CHT2250, perform an arcing cut from the bottom
upwards, then downwards to use both sides of the blades (OP7).
Horizontal cut:
In order to get the best cutting results, slightly tilt the blade (5°
–10°) towards the
cutting direction (OP8). Cut slowly, especially with thick hedges.
WARNING:
Always follow the safety precautions. The hedge-trimmer must only be used to trim
hedges or small bushes. It is forbidden to cut other types of material. Do not use the hedge-trimmer as
a lever to lift, move, or break objects, nor lock it on fixed supports. It is forbidden to apply tools or
applications that are not the ones indicated by the manufacturer onto the power take-off of the hedge-
trimmer. Do not use it for pruning trees or cutting grass.
