A hedge trimmer can be used to cut shrubs
and bushes as well as hedges.
To obtain the best cutting results, hold the
hedge trimmer so that the cutter teeth are
at an angle of approx. 15° in relation to the
hedge (see Fig. 10).
The twin-bladed cutters rotate in opposite
directions, thus enabling cutting in both direc-
tions (see Fig. 11).
To ensure that you cut the hedge to a level
height, we recommend tying a guide line of
string or similar along the hedge. Cut off all
branches that protrude beyond the guide line
(see Fig. 12).
Cut the sides of the hedge with curve-shaped
movements from the bottom up (see Figure
13).
(wear work gloves to prevent injury when you
do so).
store it out of children's reach.
