WARNING:
Battery tools are always in operating condition. Remove
battery pack when transporting or carrying hedge trimmer
to avoid accidental starting, which may result in serious
injury.
For complete charging instructions, refer to the Operator's
Manuals for your RYOBI battery pack and charger models.
ADJUSTING PIVOTING HEAD
See Figure 5.
 Remove the battery pack if installed.
 Place the hedge trimmer on a sturdy flat surface.
 Push pivot button and adjust trimmer head until it snaps
securely into place at one of the four positions indicated
by the notches.
WARNING:
Do not place hand between pivoting head and threaded
base. Placement of your hand or fingers in this area could
result in a pinch point injury.
STARTING/STOPPING THE HEDGE TRIMMER
See Figure 6.
To start the motor:
 Hold the hedge trimmer and ensure that you are well away
from anything that may contact the blade.
 Press and hold the trigger lock-out.
 Depress the switch trigger.
To start the motor:
 Release the trigger to stop the hedge trimmer. Upon
release of the trigger, the trigger lock will automatically
reset to the locked position.

CUTTING TIPS

See Figures 7 - 9.
DANGER:
Never cut near power lines, electric cords, or other
electric sources. 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.
OPERATION
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.
 Never use the hedge trimmer near power lines, fencing,
posts, buildings, or other immovable objects.
 Inspect and clear the area of any hidden objects.
 Never use a blade after hitting a hard object without first
inspecting it for damage. Do not use if any damage is
detected.
 To protect yourself from electrocution, do not operate
within 50 feet of overhead electrical lines.
 Stand so that you are stable and balanced on both feet.
 Wear gloves when trimming thorny or prickly growth.
 Before starting the hedge trimmer, hold the unit with both
hands with the cutting blades directed away from you.
Always use the hedge trimmer properly.
 Always hold hedge trimmer with both hands when
operating. Use a firm grip on the front handle/shaft and
rear handle. The unit is used for cutting in either direction
in a slow, sweeping action from side to side.
 If desired, you can use a string to help cut your hedge
level. Decide how high you want the hedge. Then, stretch
a piece of string along the hedge at this height. Trim the
hedge just above this guide line of string. Trim the side
of a hedge so that it will be slightly narrower at the top.
More of the hedge will be exposed when shaped this way,
and it will be more uniform.
 When trimming new growth, use a wide sweeping action,
so that the stems are fed directly into the cutting blade.
Older growth will have thicker stems and will be trimmed
easiest by using a sawing movement.
 Do not force the hedge trimmer through heavy shrubbery.
This can cause the blades to bind and slow down. If the
blades slow down, reduce the pace.
 Do not try to cut stems or twigs that are larger than
5/8 in. thick, or those obviously too large to feed into the
cutting blade. Use a non-powered hand saw or pruning
saw to trim large stems.
 If blades do become jammed, stop the motor, allow
the blades to stop and remove the battery pack before
attempting to remove the obstruction.
