If in doubt consult your local Service Repairer or qualified electrician before the machine is used. Disconnect the Hedgetrimmer from the power source and clear jammed debris from the cutting blades. Inspect blades and repair or replace as needed. Top Cutting (H) Use a wide sweeping motion. A slight downward tilt of the cutting blades in the direction of motion gives the best cutting results. Side Cutting (J) When trimming the sides of the hedge, begin at the bottom and cut upwards (See Fig. J), tapering the hedge inward at the top. This shape will expose more of the hedge, resulting in more uniformed growth. J Caring for your Hedgetrimmer K Cleaning (K) · 1.
