Using the Hedge Trimmer
Cutting Season
!
Warning!
Observe country-specific or municipal
rules and regulatons for cutting hedges.
Always stop the engine and make sure
that the cutting tool is stopped before
doing any maintenance or repair work or
cleaning the power tool. Do not attempt
any maintenance or repair work not
described in your KombiEngine and
KombiTool instruction manuals. Have
such work performed by your STIHL
servicing dealer only.
Do not use your hedge trimmer during
rest periods customary in the
neigborhood.
Cutting Sequence
If a radical cut is necessary, cut a little at
a time in several stages.
Wear gloves when handling or
performing maintenance on blades.
Use lopping shears to cut out thick
branches first.
!
Warning!
Cut the sides of the hedge first, then the
top.
Never repair damaged cutting attach-
ments by welding, straightening or
modifying the shape. This may cause
parts of the cutting tool to come off and
result in serious or fatal injuries.
Disposal
Horizontal Cut
– with angled cutter bar
Do not throw cuttings in the garbage
can – they can be composted!
Keep the cutting tool sharp. Tighten all
nuts, bolts and screws, except the
carburetor adjustment screws, after
each use.
Cutting close to the ground from a
standing position, e.g. low shrubs.
Working Technique
Swing the cutter bar back and forth
down in an arc as you move along – use
both sides of the cutting blades.
Store the power tool in a dry and high or
locked location out of reach of children.
Always wear the shoulder strap.
