How To Use; Caring For Your Hedgetrimmer - Flymo EasiCut 420 Original Instructions Manual

How to Use your hedge trimmer
1. Inspect area to be cut before each use - remove ob-
jects which can be thrown or become entangled in the
cutting blades.
2. Always keep the hedge trimmer in front of your body.
Hold handle firmly with both hands and stand in a se-
cure and stable position.
3. Allow the cutting blades to reach full speed before en-
tering the material to be cut.
4. Always work going away from people and solid objects
such as walls, large stones, trees, vehicles etc.
5. If blade stalls, immediately stop the hedge trimmer.
Disconnect the hedge trimmer from the power source
and clear jammed debris from the cutting blades. In-
spect blades and repair or replace as needed.
Top Cutting
Use a wide sweeping motion. (M) A slight downward tilt
of the cutting blades in the direction of motion gives the
best cutting results.
Side Cutting
When trimming the sides of the hedge, begin at the bottom and cut
upwards (N), tapering the hedge inward at the top. This shape will
expose more of the hedge, resulting in more uniformed growth.
• WARNING
Disconnect from the mains electricity supply, before
attempting any maintenance or adjustment.
Cleaning (P)
1. Using a soft brush - remove debris from all air intakes
and cutting blade.
2. Wipe over surface of your hedge trimmer with a dry
cloth.
• IMPORTANT
Never use water for cleaning your hedge trimmer. Do
not clean with chemicals, including petrol, or sol-
vents - some can destroy critical plastic parts.
Lubricating the Cutting Blade
For easier operation and longer life, lubricate the cutter
blades before and after use. Apply the oil so that it runs be-
tween the two blades. (R).
At the end of the Cutting Season.
1. Clean your hedge trimmer thoroughly.
2. Check that all nuts and bolts are secure.
3. Visually inspect the hedge trimmer for any worn or dam-
aged parts, contact your local Service Centre if any parts
require replacement.
