Before starting the hedge trimmer, maintain proper footing and balance and do not
overreach. Wear safety goggles, non-skid footwear and rubber gloves. Hold the
unit with both hands with the cutting blades directed away from you.
Do not trim too much at once. This can cause the blades to bind and slow down,
reducing the cutting efficiency.
Do not force the hedge trimmer through heavy shrubbery. This can cause the
blades to bind and slow down. If the blades slow down, reduce the pace of your
work.
When trimming new growth, use a wide sweeping action, so that the stems are
fed directly into the cutting blade. Older growth will have thicker stems and will be
trimmed most easily by using a back-and-forth motion.
Always cut stems or twigs that are less than 1.2 in (30.5 mm). thick. Use a non-
powered hand saw or pruning saw to trim large stems.
