쎲 For optimum trimming performance, guide the
blade teeth at an angle of approx. 15° to the
hedge (see Fig. 5).
쎲 Since the blades cut on both sides and run in
opposite directions to each other, you can trim in
both directions (see Fig. 6).
쎲 It is recommended to tie a guide line of string or
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).
Ensure that the blades do not come into contact
with the string.
쎲 The sides of the hedge should be trimmed with
arc-type movements from below upwards (see
Fig. 8).
Electric brake
For safety reasons, the equipment is supplied with an
electric brake system that stops the cutting blades as
quickly as possible after the equipment has been
switched off. The equipment may therefore emit an
odor or generate sparks when it is switched off. This
has no influence on the future operational
performance or safety of the equipment. Please
avoid switching the equipment on and off more often
than necessary.
