Work practice
•
A hedge trimmer can be used to cut shrubs
and bushes as well as hedges.
•
To obtain the best cutting results, hold the
)
-1
hedge trimmer so that the cutter teeth are
at an angle of approx. 15° in relation to the
hedge (see Figure 5).
•
The twin-bladed cutters rotate in opposite
directions, thus enabling cutting in both
directions (see Figure 6).
•
It is recommended to tie a guide line of string
or the like along the hedge so that you cut the
hedge to a level height. Cut off all branches
which protrude beyond the guide line (see
Figure 7).
•
Cut the sides of the hedge with curve-shaped
movements from the bottom up (see Figure
8).
