Fitting the cuttings collector (Figure 3a-3d)
For horizontal cutting we recommend that you install
the cuttings collector. This enables you to remove the
cuttings easily. The surface of the hedge thus remains
clear (Fig. 3a/3b).
Position the cuttings collector (9) on the cutter rail
(Figure 3c). Then push the cuttings collector as far as
possible towards the tip of the cutter rail and secure it
with the fastening screws (8) (Figure 3d). The cuttings
collector can be fitted on either the right or left side.

7. Operation

The hedge trimmer is equipped with a two-handed
safety switch. The equipment works only when the
switch on the steady grip (Figure 4 / Item A) is
pressed with one hand and the switch on the handle
(Figure 4 / Item B) is pressed with the other hand. If
either switch is released, the cutters will stop moving.
Please watch out for the cutters as they slow
down to a standstill.
Please check that the cutters work properly. The
n
twin-bladed cutters rotate in opposite directions,
thus guaranteeing high cutting performance and
smooth operation.
Before use, fasten the extension cable in the
n
stress-relief clip (see Fig. 4).
When working outdoors, use extension cables
n
that are approved for the purpose.
Notes on working practice
A hedge trimmer can be used to cut shrubs and
n
bushes as well as hedges.
To obtain the best cutting results, hold the hedge
n
trimmer so that the cutter teeth are at an angle of
approx. 15° in relation to the hedge (see Figure
5).
The twin-bladed cutters rotate in opposite
n
directions, thus enabling cutting in both directions
(see Figure 6).
It is recommended to tie a guide line of string or
n
the like along the hedge so that you cut the hedge
to a level height. Cut off all branches which
protrude beyond the guide line (see Figure 7).
Cut the sides of the hedge with curve-shaped
n
movements from the bottom up (see Figure 8).

We recommend that you clean the equipment

plastic parts in the equipment. Ensure that no
water can get into the interior of the equipment.
9.2 Servicing
The cutters should be cleaned and lubricated at
n
regular intervals in order to ensure best
performance at all times. Remove deposits with a
