• Always hold the equipment firmly in
both hands, with one hand on the rear
handle and the other on the front han-
dle. Thumbs and fingers must be firmly
around the handles.
• Switch off the equipment immedi-
ately in the event that the blades are
blocked by solid objects, pull out the
power plug then remove the object.
• Always work away from the mains
power outlet. Set the cutting direction
before starting work. Ensure that the
power cable is kept well away from the
working area. Never lay the cable over
the hedge, where it could easily be
caught up in the trimmer blades.
• Avoid overstraining the equipment dur-
ing work.
Pull out the power plug imme
-
diately if the cable is damaged,
badly twisted or has been com
-
pletely cut through.

1. Release the indexing by pushing
the safety slide (11) forward.
2. The tubular shank can now op-
tionally be turned 45° / 90° to the
right or the left (see the scale on
the device).
Cutting Techniques
• Cut thick branches beforehand using a
branch clippers.
• The double-sided cutter bar enables
cutting in both directions or, with a
swinging action, from one side to the
other.
• In case of vertical cutting, move the
hedge trimmer uniformly forward or up
and down in an arc movement.
• In case of horizontal cutting, move
the hedge trimmer in a sickle-shaped
movement to the edge of the hedge,
so that cut branches fall to the ground.
•
In order to achieve long straight
lines, the placing of tensioned guid-
ing cords is recommended.
Cutting Shaped Hedges:
It is recommended that hedges be cut in a
trapezoidal shape, in order to prevent strip-
ping off of the lower branches. This cor-
responds to the natural plant growth and
allows the hedge to thrive optimally. During
cutting, only the new annual growths are
reduced and thus a dense branching and a
good screen will develop.
1. Cut the sides of a hedge first.
To do this, move the hedge trim-
mer in the direction of growth
from bottom to top. If you cut
down from the top, the thinner
branches will move out, which
may result in some areas having
sparse growth or holes.
2. Cut the top edge, according to
taste, in a flat shape, roof shape
or rounded shape
3. Trim young plants to the required
shape. The main growth should
remain undamaged until the
hedge has reached the planned
height. All other shoots are
lopped off to half size.
Care of Free-Growing Hedges:
Free-growing hedges are not shaped when
cut, although they must be regularly main-
tained so the hedge does not become too
high.
