WORKING TECHNIQUES
• Always wear heavy-duty gloves when repairing the cutting
attachment. This is extremely sharp and can easily cause
cuts.
• Store the machine out of reach of children.
• Use only original spare parts for repairs.
Basic working techniques
• Work with a swinging action from the bottom upwards
when trimming sides.
• Adjust the throttle setting to suit the load.
• When trimming a hedge the engine should always face
away from the hedge.
• Hold the machine as close to your body as possible to get
the best balance.
• Make sure that the tip does not touch the ground.
• Do not rush the work, but work steadily until all the
branches have been cut back cleanly.
Changing the hedge trimmer angle
• Undo the knob.
• Adjust the angle with the help of the handle on the cutting
unit.
• Tighten the knob.
Transport position
Once the work has been completed fold the cutting unit back
against the shaft to simplify transport and storage of the
hedge trimmer.
1 Turn off the engine.
2 Undo the knob.
!
WARNING! Do not hold the cutting head
when you adjust the angle. The blades are
sharp and you could easily cut yourself.
