• The trimmer works best with dry hedges and bushes but it can be used safely with wet
growth due to the low voltage design.
• A wide sweeping cutting motion away from the body is recommended, and will get the
greatest amount of trimming per charge.
• This unit should NOT be used for large trees and hedges with limbs in excess of 3/8th of
an inch in diameter.
• Watch out for foreign objects. Avoid trimming near wiring or other objects that could jam
the blades or cause a hazardous situation.
CAUTION: If the blades become jammed or stalled on a branch, stick, or foreign object,
release the trigger immediately. Failure to stop the unit when the blades are jammed will
cause excessive battery drainage, shorten the motor life, and trip the circuit breaker
Clearing Jams
After the blades have completely stopped, carefully remove the obstruction
CAUTION: To prevent injury, keep hands away from trigger during clearing of jams. To
prevent injury, do not use the ReadyHedger
to jam, call the service number listed below.
MAINTENANCE
BLADE CLEANING – After you have finished trimming, you may find that dirt
and vegetation have accumulated on the blades. Use a dry scrub brush to clean
debris off of blades. A penetrating oil spray can be used to soften hard deposits.
Turn tool "ON" to help dislodge any deposits.
WARNING: To prevent injury, keep hands away from the trigger during cleaning of blades.
BLADE LUBRICATION – After using the unit in wet conditions, wipe the blades with a
cloth and allow them to dry. Then, with a rag, apply a thin film of light oil to the top and
bottom of blades. DO NOT over oil. Turn the unit ON for a few seconds to work lubricant
between the blades.
LUBRICATION – Aside from blade lubrication, no periodic lubrication of other Ready-
®
Hedger
parts is required.
CLEANING OF PLASTIC PARTS – Use only a dry brush or a cloth with warm water
and mild soap to clean plastic parts. Many household cleaners contain chemicals, which
could damage the plastic. Never use gasoline, turpentine, paint thinner or similar fluids.
Never spray-wash tool or immerse in water. Water or liquid inside the tool can cause serious
damage to the unit.
