nual growths are reduced and thus
a dense branching and a good
screen will develop.
1. Cut the sides of a hedge first. To do
this, move the hedge trimmer in the
direction of growth from bottom to
top. If you cut down from the top, the
thinner branches will move out, which
may result in some areas having
sparse growth or holes.
2. Cut the top edge, according to taste,
in a flat shape, roof shape or rounded
shape
3. Trim young plants to the required
shape. The main growth should re-
main undamaged until the hedge has
reached the planned height. All other
shoots are lopped off to half size.
Care of Free-Growing Hedges:
Free-growing hedges are not shaped
when cut, although they must be regularly
maintained so the hedge does not be-
come too high.

Maintenance/Cleaning

Pull out the power plug before carry-
ing out any work on the equipment.
Repair and servicing work not
described in this manual should
always be carried by our Service
Centre. Use only original parts.
Wear gloves while handling the
blades.
Carry out the following maintenance and
cleaning work regularly. This will guarantee
a long and reliable service life.
Do not spray the equipment with
water or place it in water. Do not
use detergents or solvents. These
could cause irreparable dam-
age to the equipment. Chemical
substances may attack the plastic
parts of the equipment.
• Before each use, check the hedge
trimmer for obvious defects such as
loose, worn or damaged parts. Check
the secure seating of the bolts in the
cutter bar.
• Do not use the unit if the blades are
blunt or worn. This will overstress the
motor and gearbox of the machine.
• Check coverings and safety devices for
damage and correct seating. Replace
these where necessary.
• Keep the ventilation slots and motor
housing of the device clean. Use a damp
cloth or a brush to do this. Do not wash
down the equipment with water, or sub-
merge it in water.
• Clean the cutter bar carefully after each
use. Wipe it off with an oily cloth or
spray it with a metal protective spray.
• Keep the hedge trimmer dry and cov-
ered with the blade protection supplied
and out of reach of children.
• Keep the hedge trimmer dry and out
of reach of children in the blade guard
supplied.
