Working with the equipment

Do not use the unit when stand-
ing on a ladder or in an unsafe
position. Do not be tempted to
make unconsidered cuts. Doing
so may endanger both yourself
and others.
During cutting work, ensure that no
contact is made with objects, e.g.
such as wire fencing or main plant
stems. This may result in damage
to the cutter bar.
Always hold the equipment firmly
in both hands, with one hand on the
rear handle and the other on the front
handle. Thumbs and fingers must be
firmly around the handles.
Observe the specified working
angle, in order to guarantee safe
working.
Switch off the equipment immedi-
ately in the event that the blades are
blocked by solid objects, pull out the
power plug then remove the object.
Always work away from the mains pow-
er outlet. Set the cutting direction before
starting work. Ensure that the power
cable is kept well away from the work-
ing area. Never lay the cable over the
hedge, where it could easily be caught
up in the trimmer blades.
Do not use the unit if the blades are
blunt or worn. This will overstress the
motor and gearbox of the machine.
Avoid overstraining the equipment dur-
ing work.

Pull out the power plug imme-
diately if the cable is damaged,
badly twisted or has been com-
pletely cut through.

Cutting Techniques

Cut thick branches beforehand using a
branch clippers.
The double-sided cutter bar enables
cutting in both directions or, with a
swinging action, from one side to the
other.
In case of vertical cutting, move the
hedge trimmer uniformly forward or up
and down in an arc movement.
In case of horizontal cutting, move
the hedge trimmer in a sickle-shaped
movement to the edge of the hedge,
so that cut branches fall to the ground.
In order to achieve long straight lines,
the placing of tensioned guiding cords
is recommended.
Cutting Shaped Hedges:
It is recommended that hedges
be cut in a trapezoidal shape, in
order to prevent stripping off of the
lower branches. This corresponds
to the natural plant growth and al-
lows the hedge to thrive optimally.
During cutting, only the new an-
nual growths are reduced and thus
a dense branching and a good
screen will develop.
1. Cut the sides of a hedge first. To do
this, move the hedge trimmer in the
direction of growth from bottom to top.
If you cut down from the top, the thin-
ner branches will move out, which may
result in some areas having sparse
growth or holes.
2. Cut the top edge, according to taste,
