OPERATION TIPS

• Start by trimming the top of the hedge. Slightly tilt the
tool (up to 15° relative to the line of cut) so that the blade
tips point slightly towards the hedge. This will cause the
blades to cut more effectively. Hold the tool at the desired
angle and move it steadily along the line of cut. The
doublesided blade allows you to cut in either direction.
• In order to obtain a very straight cut, stretch a piece of
string along the length of the hedge at the desired height.
Use the string as a guideline, cutting just above it.
• In order to obtain flat sides, cut upwards with the growth.
Younger stems move outwards when the blade cuts
downwards, causing shallow patches in the hedge.
• Take care to avoid any foreign objects. Especially avoid
hard objects such as metal wire and railings, as these
could damage the blades.
• Regularly oil the blades.
Keep hands away from blade while operating. Contact with
blade will result in serious personal injury.
