the desired position.

TIPS FOR OPTIMUM USE
See figure 8-9.
„ Start by trimming the top of the hedge. Slightly tilt the
tool (up to 15° relative to the line of cut) so that the
blade tips point slightly towards the hedge (FIG.8).
This will cause the blades to cut more effectively.
Hold the tool at the desired angle and move it
steadily along the line of cut. The doublesided blade
allows you to cut in either direction.
„ In order to obtain a very straight cut, stretch a piece
of string along the length of the hedge at the desired
height. Use the string as a guideline, cutting just
above it.
„ In order to obtain flat sides, cut upwards with the
growth. Younger stems move outwards when the
blade cuts downwards, causing shallow patches in
the hedge. (FIG.9)
„ Take care to avoid any foreign objects. Especially
avoid hard objects such as metal wire and railings,
as these could damage the blades.
„ Regularly oil the blades.
Keep hands away from blade. Contact with blade
will result in serious personal injury.

MAINTENANCE

CLEANING THE MACHINE
After every work session, clean the machine thoroughly
to remove all dust and debris.
„ To reduce fire hazards, keep the machine and, in
particular, the motor free of leaves, branches or
excessive grease.
„ Always clean the machine after use with a damp
cloth dipped in neutral detergent.
„ Remove all traces of humidity using a soft damp
cloth. Humidity can generate risks of electric
shocks.
„ Do not use aggressive detergents or solvents to
clean the plastic parts or handgrips.
„ Do not spray water onto the motor and electrical
components and prevent them from getting wet.
„ To avoid overheating and damage to the motor or
the battery, always keep the cooling air vents clean
and free of debris.
