• You should therefore trim very thick branches to the ap-
propriate length with pruning shears, before trimming
the hedge.
• Thanks to its double-sided blade, the hedge trimmer can
be moved forwards or backwards as well as from one side
to the other in a swinging motion.
• Trim the face of the hedge first, and only then trim the
top.
• Trim the hedge from bottom to top.
• Cut the hedge in a trapezoidal shape, which prevents it
from becoming bare close to the ground from the lack of
light.
• Stretch a guide along the length of the hedge, if you wish
to trim the top to an even length.
• If the hedge needs to be cut back severely, cut it in several
passes.
• Pay attention to birds breeding in the hedge. If this is the
case, postpone trimming of the hedge or leave out this
area.
Pay attention to the safety instructions in all cir-
cumstances.
MAINTENANCE AND CARE
Before carrying out any maintenance or cleaning
work
-
Switch off the motor
-
Wait for the cutter to come to a standstill
-
Pull out the spark plug connector (part number 17)
(except when setting the idling speed)
Due to the risk of fire, do not carry out maintenance work in
the vicinity of naked flames.
Maintenance and cleaning work which is not described in
this chapter may only be performed by the customer service
department.
Safety devices which were removed for maintenance and
cleaning must be properly inspected and reattached before
continuing use.
Only use original parts. Other parts can result in unforeseen
damage, or represent a risk to the user.
Maintenance
Wear gloves, in order to avoid injuries.
In order to ensure long and reliable use of the hedge trim-
mer, perform the following maintenance tasks on a regular
basis.
Check the hedge trimmer for obvious defects, such as:
-
loose fasteners
-
worn or damaged components
-
cutter damaged, broken or bent
-
petrol cap and fuel lines not leak-tight
Inspect the hedge trimmer after each use for wear, and par-
ticularly the sliding clearance of the cutter.
-
Protective devices or covers properly installed and intact.
Perform necessary repairs or maintenance work before using
the hedge trimmer.
Adjusting the cutter
Adjust the sliding clearance if the cut material jams between
the blades or if the clearance has increased due to normal
wear on the cutter after extended use.
In order to achieve good cutting results, the sliding clear-
ance between the blades and the “sword“ must be properly
adjusted.

A
(underside)
To do so, proceed as follows:
1. Undo the nuts (A) on the top of the cutter.
2. Tighten the bolts (B) on the underside slightly (it may be
necessary to undo them slightly first).
3. Turn back the bolt between one quarter and one half ro-
tation anticlockwise.
4. Counter the bolt with the screwdriver and tighten the nuts.
The sliding clearance is then properly adjusted if the
washer under the bolt head can still be moved back
and forth slightly by hand.
5. Lubricate the cutter with environmentally-compatible
lubricating oil.
Too low a sliding clearance results in excessive heat de-
velopment, and consequently to damage to the tool.
Lubricating the gearbox
Lubricate the gearbox every 10 to 20 operating hours.
1. Apply the grease gun to the lubricating nipple (24).
2. Press a little grease into the nipple.
Use commercially available gear grease.
