Data exchange
The power tool, battery and charger
communicate with each other. The
charger charges the battery and the
battery supplies the necessary power
only if data exchange functions properly.
For this reason you should operate your
power tool only with the approved STIHL
batteries and STIHL chargers.

Using the Unit
Cutting Season

rules and regulations for cutting hedges.

Cut both sides of the hedge first,
then the top.
Recommendation: Only cut hedges that
are no more than chest height.

Working Techniques
Vertical cut
Swing the cutting blade from the bottom
upwards in an arc – lower the nose of the
blade, move along the hedge and then
swing the blade up again in an arc.
Any working position above head height
is tiring. To minimize the risk of
accidents, work in such positions for
short periods only.
