2. Always keep the hedge trimmer in front of your body.
Hold handle fi rmly with both hands and stand in a
secure and stable position.
3. Allow the cutting blades to reach full speed before
entering the material to be cut.
4. Always work going away from people and solid objects
such as walls, large stones, trees, vehicles etc.
5. If blade stalls, immediately stop the hedge trimmer.
Disconnect the battery and clear jammed debris
from the cutting blades. Inspect blades and repair or
replace as needed.
Top Cutting
Use a wide sweeping motion. A slight downward tilt of the
cutting blades in the direction of motion gives the best
cutting results.
Side Cutting
When trimming the sides of the hedge, begin at the
bottom and cut upwards, tapering the hedge inward at the
top. This shape will expose more of the hedge, resulting in
more uniformed growth.

For easier operation and longer life, lubricate the cutter
blades before and after every use. Apply the oil so that
it runs between the two blades. Lubricants should be a
non-toxic, non-hazardous, corrosion preventive lubricant
specifi cally for lubricating moving metal parts.
