Operation
1. Start trimming at the point nearest to the electricity supply and work away from it.
2. Keep the mains cable behind you at all times. Make sure that it is not in the path of the blade.
3. When trimming the blade should be tilted towards the hedge. Always trim from the bottom
upwards.
4. Trim the sides of the hedge first and then trim the top.
5. If the branches are very long, they should be cut back in several stages.
6. Make sure that there are no hard objects in the hedge such as railings, that could damage the
blade.
7. If the blade becomes jammed, switch off and disconnect from the mains supply before clearing
the obstruction.
8. Do not force the hedge trimmer to cut over sized branches. These should be cut by hand using
secateurs or shears.
