: To switch the unit on, press down
both the front-handle switch (1) and
the rear trigger switch (2).
To switch the unit off, release either the
trigger switch or front-handle switch or
both.
Release of either switch should cause
the top and bottom blades to come to a
stop with the teeth in an overlapping
position.

Overload Circuit Breaker
The overload circuit breaker in the
powerhead cuts off the power supply to
the hedge trimmer in case of mechanical
overload, e.g. due to blocked cutting
blades while front-handle and rear
trigger switches remain activated.
If the overload circuit breaker has cut
off the power supply:
: Release both the front-handle and
rear trigger switches.
: Unplug the hedge trimmer from the
extension cord.
: Clear the cutting blades from all
obstructions which caused the
blocking.
: Wait for the circuit breaker to cool
down for approximately 1 minute.
Connect the hedge trimmer to the
extension cord again. If the motor does
not start when both the front-handle and
rear trigger switches are activated, the
overload circuit breaker has not cooled
down sufficiently.
Once the motor starts:
Run your hedge trimmer for about 15
seconds off-load. This helps to cool
down the motor and the overload circuit
breaker and helps to prevent an
undesired tripping of the circuit breaker
due to heat still retained from the earlier
overload.

Storing the Machine

For periods of about 3 months or longer:
: Clean the cutting blades, check
condition and spray with STIHL
resin solvent.
: Fit the blade scabbard
: Thoroughly clean the machine
: Store the machine in a dry and high
or locked location – out of the reach
of children and other unauthorized
persons.
