5. Before starting the equipment
Before you connect the equipment to the mains
supply make sure that the data on the rating plate
are identical to the mains data.
Warning!
Always pull the power plug before making
adjustments to the equipment.
Assembly of the steady grip
Push the steady grip (Fig. 3/Item 3) in the direc-
tion of the arrow onto the motor housing (Fig. 3)
and secure (Fig. 4) on both sides with 2 screws
(Fig. 4/Item 8).
6. Operation
The hedge trimmer is equipped with a two-
handed safety switch. The machine works only
when the switch on the steady grip (Fig. 5/Item A)
is pressed with one hand and the switch on the
handle (Fig. 5/Item B) is pressed with the other
hand.
Releasing any of the switches will bring the hedge
trimmer to a stop.
In so doing, please check the running of the
blades.
•
Please check that the blades function cor-
rectly. The blades cut on both sides and run
in opposite directions to each other, for gua-
ranteed high cutting performance and quiet
operation.
•
Fasten the extension cable to the cable hol-
der before starting to use the machine (see
Fig. 5).
•
For use in the open air you must only use
extension cables certified for the purpose.
Tips on use
•
The hedge trimmer can be used not only for
trimming hedges but for trimming shrubs and
bushes as well.
•
For optimum trimming performance, guide the
blade teeth at an angle of approx. 15° to the
hedge (see Fig. 6).
•
Since the blades cut on both sides and run
in opposite directions to each other, you can
trim in both directions (see Fig. 7).
•
To achieve a hedge with a uniform height
it is recommended that you stretch a piece
of string along the edge of the hedge for
guidance. Then simply cut away all twigs pro-
jecting above the line (see Fig. 8).
•
The sides of the hedge should be trimmed
with arc-type movements from below upwards
(see Fig. 9).
7. Replacing the power cable
Danger!
If the power cable for this equipment is damaged,
it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its
after-sales service or similarly trained personnel
to avoid danger.
