The severed plug must be disposed of to avoid a possible shock hazard and should never be inserted into a 13 A socket elsewhere. cut stems up to 24 mm (34 mm , AHS 6000/ 7000 PRO-T) in thickness. When cutting, move steadily along the line of cut, so that stems are fed directly into the cutter blades. The double edge of the cutting blade enables cutting to either direction, or with a side to side motion. Cut the sides of the hedge first, then the top. To keep the sides flat, cutting upwards with the growth is recommended. Younger stems tend to move outwards when cutting them from top to bottom, resulting in shallow patches or holes in the hedge. To reach a level finish, fasten a piece of string along the length of the hedge at the required height and use as an alignment guide. Take care to avoid cutting into objects such as wire, which could cause damage to the cutting blades and the drive. Recommended cutting/trimming times: – Cut hedges with deciduous leaves in June and October. € Shaping hedges should be cut to achieve a form as shown in figure.
