OPERATION OF THE MACHINE
- Never operate with a loose grip.
- Never touch the cutting device when starting the engine and during operation.
- Operate the Hedge Trimmer in such a manner as to avoid inhalation of the
exhaust gases. Never run the engine in enclosed rooms (Risk of gas poisoning).
Carbon monoxide is an odorless gas.
- All protective installations and guards supplied with the machine must be used
during operation.
- Never operate the engine with a faulty exhaust muffler or if it is missing.
- Use the Hedge Trimmer only in good light and visibility.
- During the winter season beware of slippery or wet areas, ice and snow. (Risk of
slipping.) Always ensure a safe footing.
- Never stand on a ladder and run the Hedge Trimmer. Keep both feet on the
ground.
- Never climb up the trees with the Hedge Trimmer to perform cutting operation.
- Never work on unstable surfaces.
- Remove sand, stone, nails, wire, etc. found within the working area. Foreign
objects may damage the cutting blades.
- Before commencing cutting, the cutting blades must have reached full working
speed.
- Always hold the Hedge Trimmer firmly with both hands on the handles only.
- The right hand grips the front handle.
- This is the way to safely operate the machine.
- Use a firm grip with thumbs and fingers encircling the handles.
- When you release the throttle, it takes a few moments before the cutting blades
stop.
- The Hedge Trimmer must not be used for cutting with fast idle. The cutting speed
cannot be adjusted with the throttle control in fast idle position.
- When cutting a hedge, the machine should be held so that the blades form a 15-
30° angle with the cutting line.
- If the Hedge Trimmer is used with circular movements against the edge of the
hedge, the twigs will be thrown directly to the ground.
- Pay special attention when cutting hedges which are laid out a long a wire-fence
and have grown through the fence.
- The blade must not contact the fence, otherwise the blades may be destroyed.
- Do not use the Hedge Trimmer continuously for a long time. It is normal to take a
break of 10 to 20 minutes after every 50 minutes operation.
- Should the cutting blades hit stones or other hard objects, immediately switch off
the engine and inspect the cutting blades for damage. Replace damaged blades
before re-commencing work.
- The engine must be switched off immediately in case of any engine problems.
- Operate the Hedge Trimmer with as little noise and contamination as possible. In
particular check the correct setting of the carburetor and the fuel/oil ratio.
- Do Not attempt to remove jammed cut material when blades are running. Put unit
down, turn it off, and remove necessary cuttings.
