Working Technique
Vertical Cut
Swing the cutting blade from the bottom
upwards in an arc – lower the nose of the
blade, move along the hedge and then
swing the blade up again in an arc.
Any working position above head height
is tiring. To minimize the risk of
accidents, work in such positions for
short periods only.
Horizontal Cut
Hold the cutter bar at an angle of 0° to
10° as you swing the hedge trimmer
horizontally.
Swing the cutting blade in an arc
towards the outside of the hedge so that
the cuttings are swept to the ground.
Repeat the procedure several times on
wide hedges.
The voltage and frequency of your
power supply and the voltage and
frequency specified on the unit must be
the same.
The connection to the power supply
must be protected by a fuse or a circuit
breaker with a minimum rating in
accordance with the specifications – see
"Specifications."
The power tool must be connected to the
power supply via a Ground Fault Circuit
Interrupter (GFCI). Receptacles are
available having built-in GFCI protection
and may be used for this measure of
safety.
The electrical power supply connection
must comply with all applicable
standards and regulations.
Polarized Plug
To reduce the risk of electrical shock,
this equipment has a polarized plug (one
blade is wider than the other). The plug
of the power tool will fit into a polarized
extension cord only one way. If the plug
does not fit fully into the extension cord,
reverse the plug. If the plug still does not
fit, obtain a correct polarized extension
cord. A polarized extension cord will
require the use of a polarized wall outlet.
This plug will fit in a polarized wall outlet
one way. If the plug does not fit fully in
the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does
not fit, contact a qualified electrician to
install the proper wall outlet. Do not
change the equipment plug, extension
cord receptacle, or extension cord plug
in any way.
