Operating the Hedge Trimmer
Step 4 - Trimming (continued)
Always start with the sides. Guide the hedge trimmer along an arch route up and down and keep
cutting. You should be using both blade sides.
When cutting hold the hedge trimmer at the angle of about 15° and guide it horizontally across
the hedge. When cutting the top part guide the trimmer in a sickle like movement toward the
hedge edges. Cut branches will then fall on the ground.
- Do not cut hedges out of the main trimming and pruning season.
- If the branches are bigger than 22mm, they must be removed by pruning shears.
- If heavy pruning is required, you should work in stages.
Stopping
Stopping
The hedge trimmer is equipped with an automatic brake system for quick stop which stops the
blade immediately once the throttle is released to prevent a possible accident.
If you want to switch off the machine completely, you must move the switch into the "OFF"
position.
