When placing battery pack in your hedge

either side until it clicks into place and the
lever locks in.
To turn the handle back to center, pull
the rotation lever again, turn the handle
slightly, release the rotation lever and
continue turning the handle until it locks
into place.
ANTI-JAMMING FUNCTION
If the branch is blocked in the blade, press the
anti-jamming button on the control panel, the
blade will reverse four times, and the branch
should be released.
OPERATING TIPS
Do not force the hedge trimmer through
heavy shrubbery. This can cause the
blades to bind and slow down. If the blades
slow down, reduce the pace.
Do not try to cut stems or twigs that are
larger than 15 mm thick, or those obviously
too large to feed into the cutting blade. Use
a non-powered hand saw or pruning saw
to trim large stems.
If desired, you can use a string to help cut
your hedge level. Decide how high you
want the hedge. Then, stretch a piece
of string along the hedge at this height.
Trim the hedge just above this guide line
of string. See Figure 5. Trim the side of a
hedge so that it will be slightly narrower at
the top. See Figure 6. More of the hedge
will be exposed when shaped this way, and
it will be more uniform. If blades do become
jammed, stop the motor, allow the blades
to stop and remove the battery pack before
attempting to remove the obstruction.
Wear gloves when trimming thorny or
prickly growth. When trimming new growth,
use a wide sweeping action, so that the
stems are fed directly into the cutting blade.
Older growth will have thicker stems and
will be trimmed easiest by using a sawing
movement.
