5. 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. G)
Use a wide sweeping motion. A slight
downward tilt of the cutting blades in the
direction of motion gives the best cutting
results.
SIDE CUTTING (See Fig. H)
When trimming the sides of the hedge, begin
at the bottom and cut upwards, tapering
the hedge inward at the top. This shape will
expose more of the hedge, resulting in a
more uniformed growth.
WARNING: Check extension cords
before each use. If damaged replace
immediately. Never use your tool with a
damaged cord since touching the damaged
