USING THE HEDGE TRIMMER
LEVEL HEDGES - To obtain exceptionally level hedges, a piece of
string can be stretched along the length of the hedge as a guide. (Fig.
38)
CAUTION: Do not use the 18 inch trimmer for cutting stems greater
than .7‖. Use the trimmer only for cutting normal shrubbery found
around houses and buildings.
TRIMMING NEW GROWTH—A wide, sweeping motion, feeding the
blade teeth through the twigs is most effective. A slight downward tilt
of the blade in the direction of the motion gives the best cutting.
BEFORE USING: Fill oil well with new quality bar and chain oil.
Unused SAE30 weight motor oil may be substituted.
If you drop the product, carefully inspect it for damage. If the blade is
bent or cracked, handles broken or if you see any other condition that
may affect the product's operation, it must be repaired before putting
it back into use. Call our customer service help line at 1-800-313-
5111 for assistance.
CAUTION: Do not at any time let brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum
based products, penetrating oils, etc., come in contact with plastic
parts. They contain chemicals that can damage, weaken or destroy
plastic.
Make sure the unit is detached from the power supply, then use only
mild soap and a damp cloth to clean the tool. Never let any liquid get
inside the tool; never immerse any part of the tool into a liquid.
IMPORTANT: To assure product SAFETY and RELIABILITY,
repairs, maintenance and adjustment should be performed by a
qualified individual using identical replacement parts only.
Ensure that the plastic bar covers are in place when storing.
For smooth and fast cutting, chain needs to be maintained properly.
The chain requires sharpening when the wood chips are small and
powdery, the chain must be forced through the wood during cutting,
or the chain cuts to one side. Refer to instructions earlier in this man-
ual for instructions on properly sharpening the chain.
LUBRICATION SYSTEM FOR POLE/CHAIN SAW
The chain is automatically lubricated.
Use only new bar and chain oil or unused SAE 30 weight motor oil
may be substituted. Never use wasted oil, low quality oil, or insuffi-
cient oil. This could damage the pump; the bar and the chain which
may result in serious personal injury.
Check oil level before each work session, refill if less than ¼ full.
If the lubrication system does not work properly, check if the oil filter
and all oil-ways are clean and free from obstructions. If it is still not
working, call our customer service help line at 1-800-313-5111 for
assistance.
GUIDE BAR MAINTENANCE
When the guide bar shows signs of wear, reverse it on the saw to
distribute the wear for maximum bar life. The bar should be cleaned
every day of use and checked for wear and damage.
TRIMMING INSTRUCTIONS
FIG.38
MAINTENANCE
SIDE-TRIMMING HEDGES—Begin at the bottom and sweep up.
(Fig. 39)
Do not force the trimmer through dense growth. A slight back and
forth sawing action may ease the cutting of larger, more dense
growth. If the trimmer begins to slow down, reduce the rate of speed
at which you are trying to cut. If the trimmer becomes jammed,
immediately turn trimmer off. Disconnect trimmer from the power
supply and remove the jammed debris from the cutting blades.
Feathering or burring of the bar rails is a normal process of bar wear.
Such faults should be smoothed with a file as soon as they occur.
A bar with any of the following faults should be replaced.
- Wear inside the bar rails which permits the chain to lay over
side ways.
- Bent guide bar
- Cracked or broken rails
- Spread rails
In addition, guide bars with a sprocket at their tip must be lubricated
frequently with a grease syringe to extend the guide bar life. Using a
grease syringe, lubricate weekly in the lubricating hole.
LUBRICATION SYSTEM FOR POLE HEDGE TRIMMER/HEDGE
TRIMMER (Fig. 40)
The cutting blades are made from high quality, hardened steel and
with normal usage, they will not require re-sharpening. However, if
you accidentally hit a wire fence, stones, glass or other hard objects,
you may put a nick in the blade. There is no need to remove this nick
as long as it doesn't interfere with the movement of the blade. If it
does interfere, make sure the unit is detached from the power supply
and use a fine toothed file or sharpening stone to remove the nick.
Fertilizers and other garden chemicals contain agents which greatly
accelerate the corrosion of metals Do not store the tool on or
adjacent to fertilizers or chemicals.
LUBRICATE BLADES - Stop the unit and disconnect the power cord.
Then remove any debris on blades. Apply a light machine oil along
the edge of the top and bottom blade supports. Make sure handles
remain clean and dry.
