Preparation for Cutting

Harness
Correct adjustment of the harness makes it possible to balance the
tool correctly and set an appropriate height from the ground (Fig.24).
- Put on the harness.
- Attach the hedgetrimmer to the harness by means of the snap hook
(B, Fig.26).
- Position the hook (C, Fig.26) to obtain the best hedgetrimmer balance.
- Position the buckle (D, Fig.25) to obtain the correct height of the
hedgetrimmer.
Proper Grip on Handles.
26
Refer to Safety Section for appropriate Safety Equipment.
1. Wear non-slip gloves for maximum grip and protection.
When the motor is running, grip the front handle firmly
with your left hand and the back handle with your right
hand (Fig. 27). Check that all parts of the body are kept
away from the blades and muffler. Never use a cross-
handed grip. Left-handers should follow these
instructions too. Keep a proper cutting stance.
2. Maintain a proper grip (B, Fig. 28) on the hedge trimmer whenever
28
the engine is running. The fingers should encircle the handlebar
and the thumb is wrapped under the handlebar.
