CAUTION:
Avoid operating the tool in very
hot weather as much as practicable. When operat-
ing the tool, be careful of your physical condition.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to accidentally
contact a metal fence or other hard objects while
trimming. The shear blades may break and cause
an injury.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to allow the shear
blades to contact the ground. The tool may recoil
and cause an injury.
CAUTION:
Overreaching with a hedge trim-
mer, particularly from a ladder, is extremely
dangerous. Do not work while standing on anything
wobbly or infirm.
NOTICE:
Do not attempt to cut branches thicker
than 10 mm (3/8") in diameter with the tool. Cut
branches to 10 cm (4") lower than the cutting height
using branch cutters before using the tool.
► ( 1) Cutting height (2) 10 cm (4")
NOTICE:
Do not cut down dead trees or similar
hard objects. Doing so may damage the tool.
NOTICE:
Do not trim the grass or weeds while
using the shear blades. The shear blades may
become tangled in the grass or weeds.
Hold the tool with both hands, press the switch lever
and pull the switch trigger while pressing the lock-off
lever, and then move it forward.
For basic operation, tilt the shear blades toward the
trimming direction and move it calmly and slowly at the
speed rate of 3 to 4 seconds per meter.
To cut a hedge top evenly, tie a string at the desired
height and trim along it.

If the chip receiver is attached to the shear blades, it
gathers discarded leaves and makes clean-up after-
ward much easier.
