OPERATING POLE TRIMMER
USING THE POLE TRIMMER
The Pole Trimmer is a dual-purpose tool. It is
designed to trim and shape tall, hard-to-reach
hedges and bushes with its extended reach
and pivoting power head. You can also adjust
the Pole Trimmer to trim and shape smaller
hedges and shrubs near the ground without
having to bend or stoop.

To use the Pole Trimmer for trimming tall,
hard-to-reach hedges or shrubs, hold the
Pole Trimmer at the positions shown in

TRIMMING A HEDGE

Use the Pole Trimmer properly. Always
wear eye protection, rubber gloves, and
substantial foot wear while using the Pole
Trimmer. Always maintain proper footing
and balance and never overreach when us-
ing Pole Trimmer. Before starting the Pole
Trimmer, hold the unit with both hands on
the grip areas. Make sure that the cutter blade
is not touching anything.
Always keep the extension cord behind the
Pole Trimmer when in use. Do not drape
the cord over the hedge where it may be
cut by the blades.
Use smooth steady sweeping motions to trim
new growth. Do not try to cut too much at
one time. This can cause the Pole Trimmer
to slow down or get jammed, reducing the
cutting effi ciency.
Do not force the Pole Trimmer through dense
growth. A slight back and forth sawing action
may ease the cutting of larger, more dense
growth. If the Pole Trimmer begins to slow
down, reduce the rate of speed at which you
are trying to cut.
If the Pole Trimmer becomes jammed, im-
mediately turn Pole Trimmer off. Disconnect
Pole Trimmer from the power supply and
remove the jammed debris from the cutter
blades.
Do not try to cut branches larger than
3/4 inch in diameter.
For best results, trim the sides of hedges with
an upward sweeping motion. Trim the hedges
so that the top is slightly narrower than the
bottom. To trim extremely level hedges, use a
string stretched along the length of the hedge
as a guide (see Figure 16).
