OPERATION
Tips for using hedge trimmer
• Do not use in the rain
• Cut preferably starting with the parts closest to the power supply, by moving away slowly.
• When cutting, make sure that the extension cord is always drawn behind you the side already done.
• Start the trimmer before being in contact with the plant to prevent the blade being blocked.
• For hedge trimmer, alternately using the two sides of the blade.
• For efficiency, tilt the blade about 10 degrees without poking the tooth of the trimmer.
• For horizontal areas, go from the inside to the edge of the fence to cut down the branches on the ground.
• If the height of the hedge is excessive, making several passes. Between each size, cut large branches with pruning shears or a
lopper.
• Work carefully nearby fences to avoid blocking the blade.
• In case of blade blocking, stop the machine before the cleaning.

• Note: In order to ensure long and reliable use of the product, carry out the following maintenance work at regular intervals.
• Check the hedge trimmer at regular intervals to detect visible defects such as a detached, loose or damaged blade support
bar, loose connections or worn or damaged parts.
• Check that the covers and safety devices are not damaged and that they are correctly fitted. The repair or maintenance work
needed must be carried out before using the hedge trimmer.

• When handling or cleaning the blades, wear protective gloves.
• Cleaning the blades after every use and treat them with a maintenance spray. When the work is of rather long duration, we
recommend lubricating the blades at regular intervals using a maintenance spray. Carry out a visual inspection to determine
the condition of the blades.
