4-STEP SPEED ACTIVATION
This machine has 4-step speed limiter. The feature is
used to optimize performance and runtime after the
different circumstances. With a higher cutting speed you
consume more energy opposed to using a lower cutting
speed and saving energy for more run time.
1. To use the 4-step speed limiter, pull speed control/
safety lock button forward to change the speed
limiter.

OPERATION TIPS
• 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. 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.
• 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.
WARNING
Keep hands away from blade while operating. Contact
with blade will result in serious personal injury.
