WARNING: If any parts are missing, damaged or broken, do not operate your Hedge Trimmer until all
damaged parts have been replaced or repaired. Failure to do so could result in serious personal injury. DO
NOT USE WITHOUT HANDLE AND GUARD.
2. HOW TO USE YOUR HEDGE TRIMMER
Inspect the area to be cut before each use, remove objects which can be thrown or become entangled in the
cutting blades.
Always hold the Hedge Trimmer with both hands and with the blade away from you before turning it on.
Always keep the power cord behind the Hedge Trimmer when in use. Do not place it over the hedge that
you are trimming where it may be cut by the blade.
When trimming new growth, use a wide sweeping action so that the stems are fed directly into the blade.
Allow the cutting blades to reach full speed before entering the material to be cut.
Always work in the direction going away from people and solid objects such as walls, large stones, trees, vehicles
etc.
If the blade stalls, immediately stop the Hedge Trimmer. Disconnect the Hedge Trimmer from the electrical outlet
and clear the jammed debris from the cutting blade.
Wear gloves when trimming thorny or prickly growth.
Move the Hedge Trimmer to feed the branches directly into the blade cutting edges.
Do not try to cut stems that are too large to feed into the cutting blade.
TOP CUTTING (See Fig. E)
Use a wide sweeping motion. A slight downward tilt of the cutting blades in the direction of motion gives the best
cutting results.
