5. HOW TO USE YOUR HEDGE
TRIMMER
Before cutting an area, inspect it first and remove
any foreign objects that could become thrown or
entangled in the blades. Always hold the trimmer
with both hands and with the blade away from you
before turning it on.
When trimming new growth, use a wide sweeping
action so that the stems are fed directly into the
blade.
Allow the cutting blades to reach full speed before
cutting. When operating, keep the cutting blades
away from people and objects such as walls, large
stones, trees, vehicles, etc.
If the blade stalls, immediately stop the trimmer.
Release the two Switch Levers before attempting to
clear jammed debris from the cutting blades.
Wear gloves when trimming thorny or prickly growth.
Do not attempt to cut stems that are too thick for the
cutting blade.
Top cutting
Use a wide sweeping motion (See Fig. E1). A slight
downward tilt of the cutting blades in the direction of
motion gives the best cutting results.
Side cutting
When trimming the sides of the hedge, begin at the
bottom and cut upwards, tapering the hedge inward
at the top. This shape will expose more of the hedge,
resulting in a more uniformed growth
6. MAINTENANCE
