WARNING:

When the engine starts with the throttle trigger locked, the

blades will move. Keep body, objects, and obstructions

away from blades. Failure to keep away from the blades

can result in serious injury.

ROTATING HANDLE

See Figure 5.

The handle can be rotated 45° or 90° to the left or to the

right.

To rotate handle:

 Shut off the hedge trimmer.

 Disengage the throttle trigger.

 Pull back on the rotating handle knob.

 Turn handle to the right or to the left.

 Release rotating handle knob.

 Keep turning handle until it locks into place in one of the

45° or 90° positions.

NOTE: The trimmer will only operate at one of these locked

positions. The handle is locked when the rotating handle

knob is securely into place, is not extended, and the handle

will no longer move to either side.

CUTTING TIPS

See Figure 6.

WARNING:

Always keep both hands on the hedge trimmer handles.

Never hold shrubs with one hand and operate hedge

trimmer with the other. Failure to heed this warning can

result in serious injury.

WARNING:

Clear the area to be cut before each use. Remove all

objects such as cords, lights, wire, or loose string which

can become entangled in the cutting blade and create a

risk of serious personal injury.

OPERATION

 Do not force the hedge trimmer through heavy shrubbery.

This can cause the blades to bind and slow down. If the

blades slow down, reduce the pace.

 Do not attempt to cut stems or twigs that are larger than

3/4 in. thick, or those obviously too large to feed into the

cutting blade. Use a non-powered hand saw or pruning

saw to trim large stems.

 If blades do become jammed, stop the engine, allow the

blades to stop, and remove the obstruction.

 If desired, you can use a string to help cut your hedge

level. Decide how high you want the hedge. Stretch a

piece of string along the hedge at the desired height.

Trim the hedge just above the guide line of string. Trim

the side of a hedge so that it will be slightly narrower at

the top. More of the hedge will be exposed when shaped

this way, and it will be more uniform.

 Always wear gloves when using the hedge trimmer. When

trimming new growth, use a wide sweeping action, so that

the stems are fed directly into the cutting blade. Older

growth will have thicker stems and will be trimmed easi-

est by using a sawing movement.

OPERATING THE HEDGE TRIMMER

WARNING:

Read the safety information for safe operation using the

blade. Extreme care must be taken when using blades to

ensure safe operation. Refer to Specific Safety Rules.

 Always hold hedge trimmer with both hands when op-

erating. Use a firm grip on the handles. The unit is used

for cutting in either direction in a slow, sweeping action

from side to side.



The hedge trimmer should be positioned so that your body

will not come into contact with the muffler on the power

head. Stand so that you are stable and balanced on both

feet.

 Inspect and clear the area of any hidden objects.

 Never use the hedge trimmer near power lines, fencing,

posts, buildings, or other immovable objects.



Never use a blade after hitting a hard object without first

inspecting it for damage. Do not use if any damage is detected.
