HEDGE TRIMMING TECHNIQUES
Trim sides of a hedge first, and then the top.
Vertical cut:
• With the single-sided blade hedge-trimmer,
model HT2301 always cut from the bottom up
(OP8). With the 2-sided blade model CHT2301
use an arcing cut from the bottom upwards, then
downwards to use both sides of the blades
(OP9).
Horizontal cut:
• In order to get the best cutting results, slightly tilt
the blade (5÷10°) towards the cutting direction
(OP10, OP11).
Cut slowly, specially with thick hedges.
WARNING
Always follow the safety precautions.
The hedge-trimmer must only be used to trim
hedges or small bushes. It is forbidden to cut
other types of material. Do not use the hedge-
trimmer as a lever to lift, move or break objects,
nor lock it on fixed supports. It is forbidden to
apply tools or applications that are not the
ones indicated by the manufacturer onto the
hedge-trimmer's power take-off. Do not use it
for pruning trees or cutting grass.
