Be careful when cutting small branches. These can
get tangled with the blade and can be propelled
unexpectedly towards you causing probable loss of
equilibrium.
7.1. HOW TO HOLD THE MACHINE AND GUIDE IT
WHILST WORKING
Hold the machine with your left hand on the handle
and the other hand in such a position that you can act
over the controls (accelerator and security switch)
with your right hand. If you hold the handles of the
machine firmly, you will reduce significantly the risk
of kick backs and you will increase control of the
machine.
Attention! So as to reduce the risk of loss of
control and possible damages (that could be mortal)
to the user or those surrounding him, never use the
machine one handed.
7.2. HEDGE CUTTING
We recommend that you test yourself firstly with
small branches in an easy position so as to get some
experience before starting with more complex cuts.
Always start the hedge cutter before placing the blade
in the cutting area.
Start cutting with the machine at full throttle and
maintain this full throttle during the duration of the
cutting work.
Once the hedge cutter has started, place the machine
in the hedge in a flat position and carry out long fan
like movements. If you tilt the machine in the cutting
direction you will obtain better cutting results.
If, whilst you cut, the blade blocks, stop the machine
immediately. Before unblocking the blade:
Ensure the machine is fully stopped, the spark plug
disconnected and the blade at a complete standstill.
Check that the temperature of the blade is not
extremely high. If it is, wait a few minutes for the
blade to cool.
Always use security gloves when unblocking the
blade.
With the help of suitable tooling, remove the blocking
element from the blade.
While cutting, in order to be good for the user, the
handle can be rotated 90º. To rotate the handle:
- Turn off the engine (If machine is running).
- Free the handle by pulling the locking lever.
- When the handle is position in the proper position,
loosen the handle locking lever.
- When the handle is blocked, start to work.
