Important - Before starting work
- Check the blades proper operation. The blades work in opposite direction and have two cutting
sides to provide greater cutting capacity and performance.
- Repeat several times the starting and stoppage of the machine to become familiar with it.
- Make trial work on small shrubs or hedges to become familiar with handling the machine.
1. Ensure that tool is properly connected to power supply. Lay the extension cord behind you.
2. Wear appropriate protective equipment.

8. Once work is finished, stop product by releasing the switch (4) or (5).
Note: do not put down product until the cutting blade has completely stopped moving.
5.3- Tips
- In addition to its trimming function, the tool can be used to cut small brushes or trim small bushes.
- The trimming cut will be improved if an angle of 5°, between the hedge and the blade, is kept
during the operation. (Fig.2)
- Both sides of the cutting blades allow to trim both ways: from right to left or left to right (Fig. 3).
- To achieve a regular trim, we recommend you to limit the side of the hedge with a wire or line.
Only the branches higher than the top of the wire or line should be cut (Fig.4).
- The sides of a hedge should be trimmed from bottom to top (Fig. 5).
