Connecting To Power Supply; Extension Cord - Stihl HSE 61 Manual De Instrucciones

English
Swing the cutting blade from the bottom upwards
in an arc – lower the nose of the blade, move
along the hedge and then swing the blade up
again in an arc.
Any working position above head height is tiring.
To minimize the risk of accidents, work in such
positions for short periods only.
3.6.2 Horizontal cut
Hold the cutting blade at an angle of 0° to 10° as
you swing the hedge trimmer horizontally, using
both sides of the blade.
Swing the cutting blade in an arc towards the
outside of the hedge so that the cuttings are
swept to the ground.
If the hedge is wide, cut it in several passes –
one hand on the front switch lever – one hand on
the control handle.

The minimum fuse protection of the power con‐
nection must comply with the specifications – see

connect the power supply if the differential cur‐
rent to earth exceeds 30 mA.
The power connection must correspond to
IEC 60364 and relevant national regulations.
