WORKING INSTRUCTIONS:
• While cutting, make sure that you do
not touch any objects such as wire
fences or plant supports. This can
cause damage to the cutter bar.
• If the blades become jammed with
solid objects, turn the device off im-
mediately and remove the object.
• Do not cut with blunt or worn blades,
as otherwise you will overload the
motor and gears of your machine.
• Carry the device with the cutting unit
facing backwards. Attach the blade
guard during transport.
CUTTING TECHNIQUES
• Cut thick branches beforehand using
a branch clippers.
• The double-sided cutter bar enables
cutting in both directions or, with a
swinging action, from one side to the
other.
• In case of vertical cutting, move the
hedge trimmer uniformly forward or
up and down in an arc movement.
• In case of horizontal cutting, move
the hedge trimmer in a sickle-shaped
movement to the edge of the hedge,
so that cut branches fall to the
ground.
• In order to achieve long straight lines,
the placing of tensioned guiding cords
is recommended.
