Stihl HLA 65 Instruction Manual page 17

Overhead Cut (with cutter bar at an
angle)
Hold the hedge trimmer vertically and
swing it in an arc to make maximum use
of its reach.
WARNING
Any working position above head height
is tiring. To minimize the risk of
accidents, work in such positions for
short periods only. Set angle of
adjustable cutter bar to maximum so that
the unit can be held in a lower, less tiring
position (with shoulder strap) while still
providing adequate reach.
HLA 65, HLA 85
Horizontal Cut (with straight cutter bar)
Hold the cutter bar at an angle of 0° to
10° as you swing the hedge trimmer
horizontally.
Swing the cutter bar in an arc towards
the outside of the hedge so that the
cuttings are swept to the ground.
