Using the Unit
Cutting season
Observe all country-specific and local
regulations and ordinances regarding
hedge trimming.
!
In order to reduce the risk of fire, do not
modify or remove any part of the muffler
or spark arresting.
Warning
Keep cutting tool sharp. Tighten all nuts,
bolts and screws except the carburetor
adjustment screws after each use.
Keep spark plug and wire connection
tight and clean. The spark plug electrode
gap should be checked with a feeler
gauge at least every 50 operating hours
and reset if necessary. Fit a new spark
plug if the electrodes are badly pitted.
Do not use your hedge
trimmer during other
people's rest periods.
Preparations
Before starting work,
scare away small animals
so that they cannot be
injured.
For any maintenance please refer to the
maintenance chart and to the warranty
statement near the end of this manual.
Store hedge trimmer in a dry, high or
locked location out of reach of children.
Before storing for longer than a few
days, always empty the fuel tank.
Use lopping shears to cut out thick
branches first.
Cutting techniques
Vertical cut:
To cut the sides of a hedge, swing the
cutting blade from the bottom upward in
an arc - lower the nose of the cutting
blade, move along and then swing the
cutting blade upward again.
Cutting sequence
If a radical cut is necessary, cut a little at
a time in several passes.
Cut both sides of the hedge first, then
the top.
