the
brush cutter fitted
with
the
hedge trimming device.
Before starting
work
please:
- Check that all the screws on the machine and the
blade
are
tightly fastened;
- check that the blades are sharp
and
there
are
no
signs of any damage;
-
check
that
the
protection devices
are
well fa-
stened
and
working efficiently;
-
check
that
the
handgrips are well fastened
• Directions
tor
use
-
Cut
branches
up
to
a maximum diameter
of
5
mm; cutting branches with a larger
diameter
could damage
the
hedge
trimmer.
-
ONLY
adjust
the
tilt
angle
with
the
motor
switched off. SWITCH OFF
the
motor before re-
moving
any
branches caught
up
in the blades.

and without interruptions, especially
in
the
case of
very
thick hedges.
