Cut and remove branches exceeding the cutting capacity of this product using a hand pruner before opera-
tion. N.B. Jamming the blade on large branches can cause damage.
Always hold the product firmly with both hands on the gripping surface and handle. Never operate this
product using only one hand. N.B. Try to keep the blades angled at approximately 15° to the cutting
surface.
Cut both sides from the bottom cutting upwards, this will prevent any of the cuttings falling into the path of
the area still to be cut.
After cutting the sides proceed to the top.
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 shurb. A slight tilt downwards of the
cutting blade in the direction of motion is recommended for optimum cutting performance.
Move the trimmer with slow motion forward when cutting an area out of sight.
Do not rush and do not attempt to cut too much with one stroke of the cutting blade.
Cut in a number of stages if the area being cut is particularly long to achieve a better result.
