Operation
Tips for Optimum Use
(See figure 4-5)
•
Start by trimming the top of the hedge. Slightly tilt the tool (up to 15° relative
to the line of cut) so that the blade tips point slightly towards the hedge. This
will cause the blades to cut more effectively. Hold the tool at the desired
angle and move it steadily along the line of cut. The doublesided blade allows
you to cut in either direction.
•
In order to obtain a very straight cut, stretch a piece of string along the length
of the hedge at the desired height. Use the string as a guideline, cutting just
above it.
•
In order to obtain flat sides, cut upwards with the growth. Younger stems
move outwards when the blade cuts downwards, causing shallow patches
in the hedge.
•
Take care to avoid any foreign objects. Especially avoid hard objects such as
metal wire and railings, as these could damage the blades.
•
Regularly oil the blades.

•
To reduce fire hazards, keep the machine and, in particular, the motor free
