Best time for hedge trimming:
• Leaved hedge: June and October
• Conifer hedge: April and August
• Quickly growing hedge: from May and then every 6 weeks
Pay attention to breeding birds in the hedge. If so, put off hedge trimming or leave this area out.
Angle adjustment
By swivelling the cutter head, the hedge trimmer can be adjusted to the working conditions from
+90° to -75°. Fig. 42.
• Warning! Adjust the angle only when the motor has been turned off.
• Push both levers down and put the cutter head in the required position. Fig. 41
• Release both levers until they click into place in the notch.
• Before use, check that the adjustment levers have clicked into place properly. Fig. 42
Oil the blades and the angle adjustment each time before starting work, with environmentally friend-
ly lubricant.
Regularly oil the blades during working hours as well.
Warning! Oil the tool only when the motor has been turned off.
Caution: Incorrect use and misuse can damage the bush cutter and cause severe injuries because
of pieces hurled away.
To minimize the risk of accidents by use of the cutting blade, take note of following points:
• Never cut shrubbery or wood whose diameter is larger than 2 cm.
• Avoid contact with metal bodies, stones, etc.
• Periodically check the cutting blade for damages. Never continue to use a damaged cutting blade.
• When the cutting blade becomes apparently blunt, it must be sharpened according to instructions.
When the cutting blade is apparently out of balance, it must be replaced.
Working with pole saw
Oiling of the chain and bar
It is recommended to use commercial chain oil.
• Remove the oil tank cap. (Fig. 47 / L)
• Fill the chain oil tank (Fig. 47 / M ) to 80% with chain oil.
• Close Oil tank cap (Fig. 47 / L)
Oil Supply Control
Always make sure the automatic oiler system is working properly. Keep the oil tank filled with Chain,
Bar and Sprocket Oil.
Adequate lubrication of the bar and chain during cutting operations is essential to minimize friction
with the guide bar.
Never starve the bar and chain of lubricating oil. Running the saw dry or with too little oil will de-
crease cutting efficiency, shorten saw chain life, cause rapid dulling of chain, and lead to excessive
wear of bar from overheating. Too little oil is evidenced by smoke or bar discoloration.
To check the saw chain lubrication, hold the chain saw with the saw chain over a piece of paper and
give a few seconds of full throttle.
The oil quantity can be checked on the paper. The chain must always be thrown off a small amount
of oil. After a few seconds, a light oil trail must be visible.
