FUEL
Petrol is very flammable. Avoid smoking or fuelling the hedge
trimmer anywhere near a flame or sparks. Allow the engine to cool be -
fore re-fuelling. Fuel the engine at least 3m away from your work area.
• Use a ratio of 25 :1 unleaded petrol to 2-stroke oil . F or semi-synthetic or
s ynthetic oil s use the manufacturer's ratio. M ix in the mixing bottle provided.
• Unscrew the fuel cap, and fuel the machine to 80% capacity. Fasten the fuel
cap tightly and wipe up any spillage.
• Ensure that any stored petrol/oil mixture (2-stroke) is clearly marked in a sepa-
rate can and only stored for 4-6 weeks. If the hedge trimmer is not going to
be used for a long period, drain the mixture from the fuel tank, start the engine
and drain the carburettor of any remaining fuel.
• Dispose of any unwanted 2-stroke mixture at an authorised recycling point.
Always hold the hedge trimmer firmly with both hands when using.
Before cutting ensure that the blades are running at full speed and be aware that
the blades may keep moving after you have released the throttle.
This hedge trimmer has a twist handle which rotates through 180 degrees and is
ideal for cutting shaped hedges.
It is advisable to cut a hedge from the bottom up sweeping the cutter bar in an arc
as you move along the hedge. The double edged cutter blades allows use by left
or right handed operators.
To cut the top of the hedge, hold the cutter bar at an angle of 0-10 degrees as you
swing the hedge trimmer horizontally. Sweep the cutter bar in an arc towards the
outside of the hedge so that the cuttings are swept onto the ground.
Pay special attention when cutting hedges which are laid out along a wire fence.
If the blades makes contact with the wire damage may occur.
Do not use the hedge trimmer for long periods at a time - take a break of 10-15
mins after 50 mins use or after using one tank of fuel.
If the blades hit a stone, wire or other foreign object, turn off the engine and check
for any damage immediately. Replace any damaged blades before continuing.
Do not attempt to remove any twigs or branches jammed in the cutter blades with-
out first turning the machine off.
