Operating Tips

The unit is used for cutting in either direction in a slow, sweeping
action from side to side.
Stand so that you are stable and balanced on both feet. Do not
overreach.
Inspect and clear the area of any hidden objects.
Never use the hedge trimmer near power lines, fencing, posts,
buildings, or other immovable objects.
Never use a blade after hitting a hard object without first inspecting
it for damage. Do not use if any damage is detected.
Never touch blades or service unit with the power supply
connected.
Do not force the hedge trimmer through heavy shrubbery. This
can cause the blades to bind and slow down. If the blades slow
down, reduce the pace.
1
Do not attempt to cut stems or twigs that are larger than 5/8 inch (
mm), or those obviously too large to feed into the cutting blade.
Use a non-powered hand saw or pruning saw to trim large stems.
If blades do become jammed, stop the motor, allow the blades
to stop, and remove the battery before attempting to remove the
obstruction.
If desired, you can use a string to help cut your hedge level.
Decide how high you want the hedge. Stretch a piece of string
along the hedge at the desired height. Trim the hedge just above
the guide line of string.
Trim the side of a hedge so that it will be slightly narrower at the
top. More of the hedge will be exposed when shaped this way, and
it will be more uniform.
Wear gloves when trimming thorny or prickly growth. When
trimming new growth, use a wide sweeping action, so that the
stems are fed directly into the cutting blade. Older growth will
have thicker stems and will be trimmed easiest by using a sawing
movement.
