provide greater cutting capacity and performance.

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).

Important :
- Large branches should be cut with shears.
- In case the blades get blocked, stop and unplug the hedge trimmer. Then, remove the blockage.
