ADJUSTING THE ANGLE OF THE BLADE
1. Hold the angle adjustment handle (Fig. 4) with the left hand.
Hold the shaft housing (Fig. 4) with the right hand.
2. With the right thumb, push the adjustment lever (Fig. 4) away
from the indexing ring to unseat the locking pin (Fig. 4).
3. Keep pushing the adjustment lever and rotate the blade to the
desired position using the angle adjustment handle.
4. Align the locking pin with the desired indexing hole in the
indexing ring (Fig. 4).
5. Push the adjustment lever toward the indexing ring to seat the
locking pin in the indexing hole and secure the blade in the
desired position.
TIPS FOR BEST RESULTS
• To trim new growth, use a wide sweeping motion with a slight
downward tilt of the blade.
• To trim old growth with thicker stems, use a sawing motion.
• Do not try to cut stems larger than 7/16 of an inch (11 mm) in
diameter. Use a non-powered hand saw or pruning saw to trim
large stems.
• Use a string to obtain a level hedge. Stretch a string along the
top of the hedge at the desired height and trim the hedge just
above the level of the string.
• To trim the sides of the hedge, sweep the hedge trimmer upward
from the bottom of the hedge to the top. Trim the sides of the
hedge to be slightly narrower at the top (Fig. 5).
WARNING:
Do not clear away any cut material while the
engine is running or the blade is still moving. To avoid
serious personal injury, turn off the engine and allow the
blade to come to a complete stop before removing debris
from the blade.
