To cut around trees, fence posts or
other obstacles, slowly move the de-
vice around the obstacle and cut with
the thread ends.

Avoid any contact with fixed obstacles
(rocks, walls, picket fences, etc.). The
thread would wear out quickly. Use the
edge of the protective cover to keep
the device at the correct distance.
Attention! Do not lay the
cutting head on the ground
during operation!
Working with the 3-tooth
blade
Always wear the harness
and suitable protection clo-
thing when working with the
device. Wear eye, hearing
and head protection.
Ensure that the blade is ins-
talled correctly. Replace da-
maged or blunt tool parts.
There is a risk of injury.
Only use the blade to work on
open, even areas. Carefully inspect
the area to be cut and remove all
foreign bodies. Avoid hitting stones,
metal or other obstacles. The blade
can be damaged and there is a risk
of kickback by the machine.
• When working, hold the cutter above
the ground and slowly swivel the devi-
ce back and forth like a scythe in an
equal arch.
• Do not hold the cutting head at an angle.
• Do not use the device to cut wild
growth or brushwood.
• Regularly check the blades for damage
and replace as needed.

Cutting techniques using the
hedge trimmer
•
Cut thick branches beforehand using a
branch clippers.
•
The double-sided cutter bar enables
cutting in both directions or, with a
swinging action, from one side to the
other.
•
In case of vertical cutting, move the
hedge trimmer uniformly forward or up
and down in an arc movement.
•
In case of horizontal cutting, move
the hedge trimmer in a sickle-shaped
movement to the edge of the hedge, so
that cut branches fall to the ground.
•
In order to achieve long straight lines,
the placing of tensioned guiding cords
is recommended.
Cutting Shaped Hedges:
It is recommended that hedges be cut in
a trapezoidal shape, in order to prevent
stripping off of the lower branches. This cor-
responds to the natural plant growth and
allows the hedge to thrive optimally. During
cutting, only the new annual growths are
reduced and thus a dense branching and a
good screen will develop.
