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 3/4”. 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 attempting 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 safety
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.
