Hedge Trimming
Engine exhaust IS HOT, and contains Carbon Monoxide (CO), a poison gas. Breathing CO can cause
unconsciousness, serious injury, or death. Exhaust can cause serious burns. ALWAYS position
unit so that exhaust is directed away from your face and body.
Hedge Trimmer blades are very sharp. Touching them may
lead to severe personal injury. Avoid touching blades
whenever possible, and always wear gloves to protect
hands.
1. Always grip throttle handle with right hand and support
handle with left hand.
2. Hold trimmer firmly and squeeze throttle trigger to
accelerate engine.
3. Tilt trimmer so cutting teeth are angled slightly toward the
hedge or shrub and proceed to cut.
Never remove hands from unit when blades are moving.
The engine continues running even when the blades have stopped due to an obstruction. If this
occurs, stop the engine, disconnect ignition cable and remove the obstruction.
