Should you encounter any problems when using your cordless
tool, check the following list.
Cutting
1. Assume a secure position, using
two hands to hold the trimmer
and switch on. 2. Trim both sides
of the hedge, starting at the
bottom. This prevents cuttings
falling into the area yet to be cut.
3. Pass the blade lightly through
the surface of the hedge. Do not
attempt to cut too deep. 4. Trim
the top of the hedge. 5. For older
hedges that require cutting back
substantially, use pruning shears
to cut the thicker branches and
then finish the job with the hedge
trimmer.
Pruning
Your hedge trimmer is versatile. It can also be used for
trimming back new growth from small shrubs onto the
driveway or into the garden
CAUTION. Do not use cleaning agents to clean the plastic parts
of the tool. A mild detergent on a damp cloth is recommended.
Water must never come into contact with the tool.
Blade maintenance
Wear gloves when handing or cleaning the cutting blade. Always
clean the cutting blade after operation and lubricate with
protective spray. During longer cutting jobs, we recommend
periodically lubricating the cutting blade with protective spray.
Visually check the condition of the cutting edges of the cutting
blade. Check tightness of blade bolts. Ensure that the blade is
covered with the blade protection supplied.
Lubrication
WARNING. Switch off and remove the battery before carrying
out any maintenance on the tool.
After each use, clean the blades and lightly lubricate with general
purpose oil or spray lubricant.
