Hedge Trimming
Engine exhaust IS HOT, and contains Carbon Monoxide (CO), a
poison gas. Breathing CO can cause unconsciousness, serious
injury, or death. Exhaust can cause serious burns. ALWAYS
position unit so that exhaust is directed away from your face and
body.
Hedge Trimmer blades are very sharp. Touching them may lead to
severe personal injury. Avoid touching blades whenever possible,
and always wear gloves to protect hands.
1.
Always grip throttle handle with right
hand and support handle with left
hand.
2.
Hold trimmer firmly and squeeze
throttle trigger to accelerate engine.
3.
Tilt trimmer so cutting teeth are
angled slightly toward the hedge or
shrub and proceed to cut.
Never remove hands from unit when blades are moving.
The engine continues running even when the blades have stopped
due to an obstruction. If this occurs, stop the engine, disconnect
ignition cable and remove the obstruction.
