Adjustment of cutting angle

1. Stop the pole hedge trimmer engine and lay the machine on the ground.

2. To adjust the angle of the cutter unit, loosen the clamp lever located at the top

of the cutter unit by turning it counter-clockwise.

3. Adjust the angle of the cutter unit and turn the clamp lever clockwise to secure.

• The cutter unit can be adjusted anywhere between 45° and 90°.

Note:

- Do not adjust the cutter unit while the pole hedge trimmer is in an upright position.

- Move the I-O switch to the "O" position and lay the pole hedge trimmer flat on the

ground to adjust the cutting angle.

- Always secure the blades with the blade cover provided before adjusting

cutting angle.

MAINTENANCE

- Before performing any maintenance work on the pole hedge cutter (blade

cleaning, etc.), always stop the engine and wait until the engine has cooled

down. As an additional safety precaution, also remove the spark plug cap.

- Do not try to straighten or weld a bent or broken cutting blade. Always replace

damaged blades.

- Stop the engine at regular intervals to check the cutter blades for possible

damage (perform a tapping-resonance test to detect hard-to-see hairline

cracks). Always make sure that the teeth of the blades are sharp.

- Clean the pole hedge trimmer at regular intervals. During cleaning also check that

all screws, nuts and bolts are well tightened.

- To reduce the risk of fire, never service or store the pole hedge trimmer in the

vicinity of open fires.

- Always wear rugged protective gloves when handling the cutter blades.

- Contact your dealer for replacement cutter blades.
