ENGLISH
Switching on and off (fig. A)
For your safety, this tool is equipped with a
double switching system. This system prevents
starting the tool inadvertently and will only allow
operation while holding the tool with both hands.
Switching on
Squeeze both the front handle switch (1) and
the trigger switch (2).
Switching off
Release the front handle switch (1) or the
trigger switch (2).
Never attempt to lock a switch in the on
position.
Hints for optimum use
Slightly tilt the tool (up to 15° relative to the
line of cut) so that the blade tips point slightly
towards the hedge (fig. D). This will cause the
blades to cut more effectively.
Start by trimming the top of the hedge.
Hold the tool at the desired angle and move it
steadily along the line of cut. The double-sided
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.
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.
Guidelines for trimming (UK & Ireland)
Trim hedges and shrubs with seasonal leaves
(new leaves every year) in June and October.
Trim evergreens in April and August.
Trim conifers and other fast growing shrubs
every six weeks from May until October.
Guidelines for trimming (Australia & New Zealand)
Trim hedges and shrubs with seasonal leaves
(new leaves every year) in December and March.
Trim evergreens in September and February.
Trim conifers and other fast growing shrubs
every six weeks from October until March.

operate over a long period of time with a

After use, carefully clean the blades.
After cleaning, apply a film of light machine oil

solvent-based cleaner.
