6. Operating Instructions

Follow these steps for safe and effective operation of your hedge trimmer:

1. Starting the Trimmer: To start the trimmer, first press the ON/OFF switch located on the handle, then simultaneously squeeze the trigger switch. The trimmer will only operate when both switches are engaged.
2. Stopping the Trimmer: Release either the ON/OFF switch or the trigger switch to stop the trimmer.
3. Trimming Technique: Hold the trimmer firmly with both hands. Use a sweeping motion to cut through hedges. For best results, cut small amounts at a time. The 51cm blade and 16mm tooth opening capacity are ideal for most common hedge types.
4. Ergonomics: The lightweight design (2.5kg) and ergonomic D-shaped handle with rubberized grip allow for comfortable operation, reducing fatigue during prolonged use.

The lightweight and ergonomic design allows for easy and comfortable trimming of hedges.

7. Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your hedge trimmer.

• Blade Cleaning: After each use, disconnect the battery and carefully clean the blades with a stiff brush to remove sap and debris.
• Blade Lubrication: Apply a light machine oil or blade lubricant to the cutting blades regularly to ensure smooth operation and prevent rust. The blades are designed to be rust-proof, but lubrication enhances performance.
• Storage: Always attach the blade protective sleeve before storing the trimmer. Store the tool and batteries in a dry, secure place, out of reach of children.
• Battery Care: Store batteries in a cool, dry place. Do not store fully discharged batteries for extended periods. Recharge them periodically if not in use.

The blade protective sleeve provides safety and prevents damage to the blade during storage.

The upgraded rust-proof blade offers sharp, high hardness and wear resistance for smooth pruning.
