2. Using the Blades

• Long Blade (Hedge Trimmer): Ideal for cutting thin shoots on hedges, bushes, small trees, and ornamental shrubs. Use smooth, sweeping motions for an even cut.
• Short Blade (Grass Shears): Designed for cutting grass, weeds, and small sections of lawns, especially in hard-to-reach areas like corners and along stone paths.

3. Adjusting the Head Angle

The machine head can be adjusted to 3 angles (15°, 30°, and 45°) to provide flexibility for cutting in tight areas, reduce strain, and customize mowing based on terrain and grass height. Use the adjustment knobs to set the desired angle.
