Using your hedge trimmer
• For your own safety and for best results read
the following user advice and do not use this
product for anything other than its intended
purpose.
• This hedge trimmer is made for cutting hedges
and bushes. All other use that is not specifically
allowed in this manual mat lead to manage to
the hedge trimmer or injury to the user.
Switching on and off (Fig. A)
• To switch the trimmer on, press the safety switch
(7) and the start switch (1) at the same time.
• To switch off, release one or both switches.
Trimming a hedge best method
• Apart from hedges the hedge trimmer may also
be used for cutting bushes.
• The best cutting effect is achieved when hol-
ding the blade at an angle to the of approx. 15°.
• The opposite rotating knives cut on both sides,
and it is therefore possible to trim the hedge in
both directions.
• The side of the hedge are trimmed using curved
8
shaped movements from the bottom and upwards.
• Ideally a hedge should be wider at the bottom
than the top. This will improve light penetration,
keeping the hedge healthy. If possible, trim
both sides of the hedge.
• When trimming the sides of the hedge, trim
from the bottom upwards. This will ensure there
are no hedge trimmings obscuring or interfering
with your cut strokes. The blade should not be
forced to cut too deep. Cut lightly through the
surface of the hedge.
• When trimming the top of the hedge, trim away
from you but do not over-reach. It is much wiser
and safer to move along and cut within your
reach remaining on two feet at all times.
Safety transport
The hedge trimmer has a transport protection
Cover (8) for save transportation of the machine.
5. MAINTENANCE
Before cleaning and maintenance, always
switch off the machine and remove the
battery pack from the machine.
Clean the machine casings regularly with a soft
cloth, preferably after each use. Make sure that the
ventilation openings are free of dust and dirt. Re-
move very persistent dirt using a soft cloth moiste-
ned with soapsuds. Do not use any solvents such
as gasoline, alcohol, ammonia, etc. Chemicals such
as these will damage the synthetic components.
Cutting blade
• Always wear gloves when handling or cleaning
the cutting blade.
• Clean the cutting blade and spray with a
protective oil after every use. We recommend
lubricating the cutting blade with protective oil
at regular intervals during long working periods.
• Visually inspect the condition of the cutting
blade Check that the screws are firmly seated in
the cutter bar.
• Ensure that the blade guard is fitted on the
machine.
Storage
The hedge trimmer should be kept in a safe, dry
place, well out of the reach of children. Do not
place other objects on top of it.
