TRIMMING INSTRUCTIONS
1. EXTENSION CORD – (Figure 8 & 10)
Always keep extension cord behind
trimmer and away from the trimming
operation. Never drape it over a
hedge being trimmed. If you cut or
damage the cord, unplug it at the
electrical outlet immediately, before
inspecting or repairing cord.
4. WORKING POSITION – (Figure 10)
Maintain proper footing and balance
and do not overreach. Wear safety
goggles, non-skid footwear and rubber
gloves when trimming. Hold the tool
firmly in both hands and turn the tool
ON. Always hold the trimmer, with
one hand on the switch handle and
one hand on the bail handle. Never
hold the tool by the blade guard.
3. TRIMMING NEW GROWTH -
(Figure 11) – A wide, sweeping motion,
feeding the blade teeth through the
twigs is most effective. A slight
downward tilt of the blade, in the
direction of motion gives the best
cutting.
CAUTION: Do not use the trimmer for
cutting stems greater than its capacity.
Use the trimmer only for cutting normal
shrubbery found around houses and
buildings.
