Hedge Trimming
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 support handle with
right hand, and throttle 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.
MAINTENANCE
Moving parts can amputate fingers or cause severe injuries.
Keep hands, clothing and loose objects away from all openings.
Always stop engine, disconnect spark plug, and make sure all
moving parts have come to a complete stop before removing
obstructions, clearing debris, or servicing unit. Allow unit to
cool before performing service. Wear gloves to protect hands
from sharp edges and hot surfaces.
