Cordless Hedge Trimmer Operating Instructions
WARNING!
trimmer if parts are damaged or missing. Always
replace or repair parts first. Failure to do so can
lead to severe injury.
8. Adjusting the turning handle
To facilitate your work the hedge trimmer are equipped
with a turning rear handle that can be set in 5 different
positions [ right (90°), left (90°) and normal (0°)]. The pur-
pose of this mechanism is that especially for cutting in
vertical direction the hedge shears can be held in their
ergonomically most favourable position whereby an early
fatigue of the user is avoided.
Please proceed as follows to change the position of the
handle:
Release switch (1). Press the locking pin (8). The handle
is now unlocked and can be turned to the desired posi-
tion. In the desired end position, the pin locks back into
place and securing the handle and avoiding an accidental
change of the position.
Please bear in mind that the locking pin (8) can only be
pulled back when the switch (1) is not activated (held
down). Make sure that the locking pin locks into place
(fig. 2 and 3)
again after repositioning the turning handle. Only then the
switch can be activated anew.
9. Holding the hedge trimmer when
in use
This equipment will enable you to cut or trim bushes and
hedges easily and comfortably.
Important tips for hedge trimming
• Ensure that you have a stable foothold and hold the
hedge trimmer with both hands. Stepladders must be
secure and set up on firm ground and, when working
at height, secured to a thick branch as an additional
precaution.
• Keep persons and animals out of the working area.
Blade guard
• Always remove the blade guard before using the
hedge trimmer.
• Always re-fit the blade guard after use, during trans-
port and for storage of the hedge trimmer.
9.1 Trimming of hedges
- Young shoots are best cut in a scythe movement.
- Older and stronger hedges are best cut in a sawing
movement.
- Branches, which are too thick for the hedge trimmer,
should be cut with a saw.
- Sides of hedges should be cut upwards in a taper.
Never attempt to use the hedge
