3.1 Cutting season
Observe country-specific or municipal rules and
regulations for cutting hedges.
Do not use your power tool during other people's
rest periods.
3.2 Preparation
Use lopping shears or a chain saw to cut out
thick twigs and branches first.
3.3 Cutting sequence
If a radical cut is necessary, cut a little at a time
in several stages.
Cut the sides of the hedge first, then the top.
3.4 Disposal
Do not throw cuttings in the rubbish bin - they
can be composted.
3.5 Working techniques
3.5.1 Horizontal cut (with angled cutter bar)
Cutting close to the ground from a standing posi‐
tion, e.g. low shrubs.
WARNING
The K variant is not approved for cutting near the
ground.
3.5.2 Vertical cut (with angled cutter bar)
Cutting without standing directly next to the
hedge, e.g. flowerbed between operator and
hedge.
Swing the cutter bar up and down in an arc as
you move along the hedge – use both sides of
the cutting blades.
3.5.3 Vertical cut (with straight cutter bar)
Extra long reach without the need for other aids.
Swing the cutter bar up and down in an arc as
you move along the hedge – use both sides of
the cutting blades.
