■ HOW TO USE
• This machine is designed so as to cut twigs upto
8 mm (0.3 inches) thick. Cutting too thick twigs
or metal wires can not only break the blade teeth
but also give damage to the drive mechanism.
• When trimming leaves and thin twigs, guide the
blades as drawing a half circle on the surface, and
you will get a better finish.
• Running the engine at high speed with the blades
Jammed up can shorten the life of clutch parts.
When the blades have been jammed by thick twigs,
stop operation at once and draw your unit off the
objects after stopping the engine. When clipping
comparatively thick twigs, move your unit slowly
back and forth like a saw, and they can be cut to a
fine finish.
•When a new unit is first operated, in the first few
minutes grease may come out of the gear case. But,
since this is excess grease, there is no cause for
alarm. For next use just wipe it off with the engine
stopped.
