or two-stroke engine oil does not have the proper additives for air-cooled, two-stroke engines
and can cause engine damages.

ADJUSTING THE CUTTING BLADES
CAUTION-DO NOT TOUCH THE SHARPENED EDGES OF THE CUTTING
BLADES. THE CUTTING BLADES ARE EXTREMELY SHARP AND
DANGEROUS AT ALL TIMES. ALWAYS WEAR GLOVES TO HELP PROTECT
YOUR HANDS AND FINGERS FROM INJURY.
Before operating the Hedge Trimmer it is necessary to check the adjustment of the cutting
blades. Blades that are too loose may vibrate, and will not provide a clean, smooth cut.
CAUTION-BLADES THAT ARE TOO TIGHT CAN CAUSE OVERLOADING
WHICH MAY DAMAGE THE EQUIPMENT.
To adjust the cutting blades, refer to the illustrations and locate the screws.
Loosen the nuts.
Gently turn the screws in until snug, then turn the
screws back out one-fourth to a half. While hold-
ing the screws in place, tighten the nuts. Liberally
coat the cutting blades with light oil. Start the
engine and operate the Hedge Trimmer at full
speed for at least one minute. Stop the engine,
and when the blades are motionless, touch the
blades with your hand.
The blades should be warm, but if they are too hot
to touch, loosen the screws 1/8 turn.
