This product is equipped with a block release system. If the blade jams, the blades automatically retract allowing the
jam to be cleared easily. Release the triggers, remove jammed material, and then squeeze the trigger again to restart
the hedge trimmer.
OPERATING TIPS
•
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.
•
Do not try to cut stems or twigs that are larger than 20mm thick. Use a non-powered hand saw or pruning saw
to trim large stems.
•
If desired, you can use a string to help you level the hedge level. Decide how high you want the hedge to be.
Then stretch a piece of string along the hedge at this height. Trim the hedge just above this guideline of string.
•
If the blades do become jammed, stop the motor, allow the blades to stop and remove the battery pack before
attempting to remove the obstruction.
