WORKING TECHNIQUES • Check the working area for foreign objects such as electricity cables, insects and animals, etc, or other objects that could damage the cutting attachment, such as metal items. • If any foreign object is hit or if vibrations occur stop the machine immediately. Disconnect the HT lead from the spark plug. Check that the machine is not damaged. Repair any damage. • If anything jams in the blades while you are working, switch off the engine and wait until it has stopped completely before cleaning the blades. Disconnect the HT lead from the spark plug. Safety instructions after completing work • The transport guard should always be fitted to the cutting attachment when the machine is not in use. • Make sure the cutting attachment has stopped before cleaning, carrying out repairs or an inspection. Disconnect the HT lead from the spark plug. • Always wear heavy-duty gloves when repairing the cutting attachment. This is extremely sharp and can easily cause cuts. • Hold the machine as close to your body as possible to get the best balance. • Make sure that the tip does not touch the ground. • Do not rush the work, but work steadily until all the branches have been cut back cleanly. Changing the hedge trimmer angle • Loosen the knob on the shaft (clockwise). • Store the machine out of reach of children. • Use only original spare parts for repairs. Basic working techniques • Work with a swinging action from the bottom upwards when trimming sides. • Press the cutting unit against the hedge or some other firm surface until the required angle is set. • Turn the knob (anti-clockwise). • Adjust the throttle setting to suit the load. • When trimming a hedge the engine should always face away from the hedge. 16 - English WARNING! Do not hold the cutting head ! when you adjust the angle. The blades are sharp and you could easily cut yourself.
