Ensure adequate ventilation when you use the hedge

Check that there are no fasteners are missing or are
loose and that the stop switch and throttle are working
properly.
If the hedge cutter is stuck, switch off the engine
immediately. Push the twigs or branch to the side and
free the hedge cutter.
Make sure that the blade is aligned properly before
using the hedge cutter with articulated arm. Never
adjust the blade when the engine is running. Make sure
that no fuel flows out from the tank, the lid, the fuel line
and the carburettor or other parts, from which fuel can
leak out.
Repair the device if fuel leaks and make sure that there
is no leakage any more.
