Trimming Instructions

Always hold the trimmer, as shown in the illustrations in
this manual, with one hand on the switch handle and one
hand on the bail handle (figure H). Never hold the unit by
the blade guard.
Trimming new growth (Fig. I)
u
A wide, sweeping motion, feeding the blade teeth through
the twigs is most effective. A slight downward tilt of the
blade, in the direction of motion gives the best cutting.
Warning! Do not cut stems greater than 19mm.
Use the trimmer only for cutting normal shrubbery around
houses and buildings.
Level hedges (Fig. J)
u
To obtain exceptionally level hedges a piece of string can
be stretched along the length of the hedge as a guide.

u
Hold the trimmer as shown and begin at the bottom and
sweep up.
POWERCOMMAND
If you encounter a jam, depress the POWERCOMMAND
button (4) shown in figure l. The blades will move back and
forth in a slower, more forceful rhythm to help cut through dif-
ficult branches. Release the button to return to normal hedge
trimming usage.
Note: Once the button is released, the blades will immediately
return to full speed.
Note: The blades will stop when the button is held for 15 sec-
onds. To reengage the POWERCOMMAND feature, release
the button and depress it again. DO NOT continuously hold
the POWERCOMMAND button during normal hedge trimming.
Maintenance
Your BLACK+DECKER corded/cordless appliance/tool has
been designed to operate over a long period of time with a
minimum of maintenance. Continuous satisfactory operation
depends upon proper tool care and regular cleaning.
Warning! Before performing any maintenance on corded/
cordless power tools:
u
Switch off and unplug the appliance/tool.
u
Or switch off and remove the battery from the appliance/
tool if the appliance/tool has a separate battery pack.
u
Or run the battery down completely if it is integral and then
switch off.
u
Unplug the charger before cleaning it. Your charger does
not require any maintenance apart from regular cleaning.
u
Regularly clean the ventilation slots in your appliance/tool/
charger using a soft brush or dry cloth.
u
Regularly clean the motor housing using a damp cloth. Do
not use any abrasive or solvent-based cleaner.
u
After use, carefully clean the blades. After cleaning, apply
a film of light machine oil to prevent the blades from rust -
ing.
T he cutting blades are made from high quality, hardened steel
and with normal usage, they will not require resharpening.
However, if you accidentally hit a wire fence, stones, glass or
other hard objects, you may put a nick in the blade. There is
no need to remove this nick as long as it does not interfere
with the movement of the blade.
