Hedge Trimming
Engine exhaust IS HOT, and contains Carbon Monoxide (CO), a
poison gas. Breathing CO can cause unconsciousness, serious
injury, or death. Exhaust can cause serious burns. ALWAYS
position unit so that exhaust is directed away from your face
and body.
Hedge Trimmer blades are
very sharp. Touching them
may lead to severe personal
injury. Avoid touching blades
whenever possible, and
always wear gloves to protect
hands.
1.
Always grip support handle (A)
with right hand and throttle
handle (B) with left hand.
2.
Hold trimmer firmly and
squeeze throttle trigger to
accelerate engine.
3.
Tilt trimmer so cutting teeth are angled slightly toward the hedge or
shrub and proceed to cut.
Never remove hands from unit when blades are moving.
The engine continues running even when the blades have
stopped due to an obstruction. If this occurs, stop the engine,
disconnect ignition cable and remove the obstruction.
