Overhead cut
(with angled cutter bar)
Hold the hedge cutter vertically and
swing it in an arc to make maximum use
of its reach.
Any working position above head
height is tiring. To minimize the risk
of accidents, work in such positions
for short periods only. Set angle of
adjustable cutter bar to maximum so
that the unit can be held in a lower,
less tiring position (with harness)
while still providing adequate
vertical reach.
HL 100
Horizontal cut
(with straight cutter bar)
Cutting without standing directly in front
of the hedge, e.g. reaching over a
flowerbed.
