OPERATION
Connect the tool plug to an approved extension lead
■
(if required) and protect the plug connection with the
pull-relief (5) (Fig. 2).
Once plugged to electric supply, the live tool indicator
■
(9) shows a blue light, which means this tool is ready
for use.
RANGE OF USE
Cutting and trimming of hedges, bushes and ornamental
shrubs in the domestic sector only. All other uses are
expressly excluded.
SWITCHING ON AND OFF
This tool is equipped with a two-hands safety switching
system. This system prevents starting the tool
inadvertently and will only allow operation while holding
the tool with both hands.
To switch on: Press the bow grip On/Off switch (3)
■
and the On/Off switch at rotational handle (4)
with both hands at the same time.
To switch off: Release On/Off switch (3) and/or
■
rotational handle switch (4).
The brake control will stop the blade within one
■
second.
Note: The sparking (flashing) resulting in the area of
the vent slits / top of the main enclosure is normal
and will not damage the tool.
When you stop your equipment, be sure that the
■
cutting system comes to complete stop before
proceeding further.
Note: This tool cannot be started if the lock switch (8)
is pulled backward and/or the rotational handle (4) is
being turned.
ADJUSTING THE TURNING HANDLE
To facilitate your work, the hedge trimmer is equipped
with a turning rear handle that can be set in 5 different
positions (Normal, +/-45 and +/-90 degrees).
This mechanism provides ergonomically comfortable
positions when cutting vertical or angled planes, avoiding
early fatigue experienced with other hedge trimmers.
Follow below steps to change the position of the handle:
Release the On/Off switch (4), pull the lock button (8)
■
backward (Fig. 3a). The rotational handle is now
unlocked and can be turned to the desired position
(Fig. 3b & 3c).

In the desired end position, release the lock button (8)
■
back into place to secure the handle position.
Please bear in mind that the lock button (8) can only be
pulled back when the On/Off switch (4) is not activated.
Make sure that the lock button fully engages into the
housing again after repositioning the turning handle.
Only then can this tool be activated.
CUTTING HEDGES
Clean up the cutting area before starting. Take away
■
stones, glass pieces, nails, metallic cable and any
objects that can be projected or get caught during
the cutting.
Using pruning shears, first prune out branches of a
■
diameter greater than 27 mm.
Young buds can be trimmed easily with a scythe
■
movement; older and bigger hedges can be trimmed
easily with a sawing movement.
The knock-on protector (7) prevents unpleasant
■
backlash from contact with walls, fences, etc.
If hard objects become jammed in the cutter blade,
■
switch off the tool immediately, pull out plug first and
only then remove the objects.
Metal objects such as wire fences and plant supports
■
can damage the blade. Do not let the cutting blades
come in contact with materials that can not be
trimmed, such as stones or metal.
Always lay the lead away from the working area.
■
Always work away from the power socket. For this
reason, decide on the direction of cut before
beginning work.
DISPOSAL
Waste electrical products should not be disposed of
together with household waste. Please recycle where
facilities exist. Check with your local authority or retailer
for recycling advice.
