USING THE POLE HEDGE TRIMMER
•We recommend the use of the shoulder strap at all time, to assist with distributing the weight of the
machine.
•Hold unit firmly with both hands.
•Always keep your left hand on the telescopic pole and your right hand on the rear handle.
•The unit is used for cutting in either direction in a slow, sweeping action from side to side.
•Stand so that you are stable and balanced on both feet.
•Inspect and clear the area of any hidden objects.
•To protect yourself from electrocution, do not operate within 33 feet (10m) of overhead electrical
lines.
•Never use the pole 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 found.
1.
To use the pole hedge trimmer for trimming tall, hard-to reach hedges or shrubs, hold the trimmer at
the position shown (Fig.12). Pivot the power head to several different positions to shape or sculpt
shrubs or hedges.
2.
To use the pole hedge trimmer for trimming the bottoms & sides of hedges or shrubs, hold the pole
trimmer at the position shown (Fig. 13).
3.
To use the pole hedge trimmer for trimming low-lying foliage or ground cover, hold the pole hedge
trimmer at the position as shown (Fig. 14).
Use the pole hedge trimmer only for cutting normal shrubbery found around houses and buildings.
Do not force the pole hedge trimmer through dense growth. A slight back and forth sawing action may
ease the cutting of larger, more dense growth. If the pole hedge trimmer begins to slow down, reduce
the rate of speed at which you are trying to cut. If the pole hedge trimmer becomes jammed,
immediately turn the trimmer off. Disconnect the plug from the power source and clear the jammed
debris from the cutter blades.

CUTTING TIPS
WARNING!
Always hold the pole hedge trimmer with both hands. Never hold shrubs with one hand and operate
pole hedge trimmer with the other. Failure to follow this warning can result in serious injury.
WARNING!
Clear the area to be cut before each use. Remove all objects such as cables, lights, wire, or loose string
which can become entangled in the cutting blade and create a risk of serious injury.
▪When operating the pole trimmer with an extension lead, keep the extension lead behind the pole
hedge trimmer and user.
▪Never drape the machine and extension cables over the hedge being trimmed.
▪Do not force the pole 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 20mm thick or those obviously too large to
feed into the cutting blade. Use a hand saw or pruning saw to trim large stems.
▪If blades do become jammed, stop the motor, allow the blades to stop & disconnect the plug from
the power source before attempting to remove the obstruction.
▪Wear gloves when trimming thorny or prickly growth. 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 easiest by using a sawing movement.
1.
Adjust the pole to the required length as described in Adjusting the Telescopic Pole in this manual.
2.
Cut & remove branches exceeding the cutting capacity of this product using a pruner before
operation.
3.
Always hold the product firmly with both hands, on the gripping surface & handle. Never operate
this product using only one hand.
4.
Cut from the bottom to the top. This will prevent any of the cuttings falling into the path of the area
still to be cut.
5.
After cutting the sides, proceed to the top.
6.
When cutting wide hedges, with the cutting area in sight, move the cutting blade lightly through the
cutting surface in a sweeping motion following the shape of the hedge or shrub. A slight tilt
downwards of the cutting blade in the direction of motion is recommended for optimum cutting
performance.
7.
Move the product slowly forward when cutting higher hedges, if the cutting area is out of sight.
8.
Do not rush & do not attempt to cut too much with one stroke of the cutting blade.
9.
Cut in a number of stages, if the area being cut is particularly long to achieve a better result; smaller
cuttings will allow for easy composting.
NOTE: When shaping, it is advisable to achieve a trapezoidal shape. A trapezoidal cut corresponds to the
natural growth of plants and results in optimal hedge growth, as it will expose more light to the lower
end of the hedge
