2. LEVEL HEDGES—To obtain exceptionally level
hedges, a piece of string can be stretched along
the length of the hedge as a guide.
CAUTION: Do not use the trimmer for cutting
stems greater than 5/8”. Use the trimmer only for
cutting normal shrubbery found around houses
and buildings.
WARNING: Always keep both hands on the hedge
trimmer handles. Never hold shrubs with one hand
and operate the hedge trimmer with the other.
Improper operation of the hedge trimmer could
result in serious injury.
DANGER: Never cut near electric cords or lines.
If blade jams on any electrical cord or line, DO
NOT TOUCH THE BLADE! IT CAN BECOME
ELECTRICALLY LIVE AND VERY DANGEROUS.
Continue to hold the hedge trimmer by the
insulated rear handle or lay it down and away from
you in a safe manner. Disconnect the electrical
service to the damaged line or cord before at-
tempting to free the blade from the line or cord.
Contact with the blade, other conductive parts of
the hedge trimmer, or live electric cords or lines
will result in death by electrocution or serious
injury.
WARNING: Clear the area to be cut before each
use. Remove all objects such as cords, lights,
wire, or loose string which can become entangled
in the cutting blade and create a risk of serious
personal injury.
1. WORKING POSITION– Maintain proper footing
and balance and do not overreach. Wear safety
goggles, non--skid footwear and rubber gloves
when trimming. Hold the tool firmly in both hands
and turn the tool ON. Always hold the trimmer, as
shown, with right hand on the switch handle and
left hand on the front. Never hold the tool by the
blade guard. Keep unit below waist level.
3. TRIMMING NEW GROWTH—A wide, sweeping
motion, feeding the blade teeth through the twigs
is most effective. A slight downward tilt of the
blade in the direction of the motion gives the best
cutting.
4. SIDE-TRIMMING HEDGES—Rotate handle to
desired angle.Begin at the bottom and sweep up.
