NOTE:
Try to keep the cutting device angled at a
pproximately 15° to
the cutting surface.
1. Ensure that no people or animals are in the work area.
2. Attach the sweeper (1) to the cutting device (blade) (13) if necessary.
3. Ensure that the rear handle (8) is locked into one of the five pre-setting
position.
4. Cut and remove branches exceeding the cutting capacity of this product
using a proper pruner before operation.
5. Always hold the product firmly with both hands on front handle (4) and the
rear handle (8). Never operate this product using only one hand.
6. Do not rush and do not attempt to cut too much with one stroke of the cutting
device.
7. First cutting both sides from the bottom upwards to the top. This will prevent
any of the cuttings falling into the path of the area still to be cut (Fig. 9).
8. After cutting the sides proceed to the top. Try to keep the cutting device
angled at approximately 15° to the cutting surface (Fig. 10).
9. When cutting wide hedges with the cutting area in sight move the cutting
blade lightly through the cutting surface in a sweeping motion following the
shape of the hedge or shrub. A slight tilt downwards of the cutting blade in
the direction of motion is recommended for optimum cutting performance.
10.Cut in a number of stages to achieve a better result rather than trying to cut
in one go if the area being cut is particularly long (Fig. 11); smaller cuttings
will allow for easy composting.
