personal injury.

Attaching extension cord to trimmer (g. C)

A cord retainer (7) is incorporated into the rear of the switch

handle (6).

u Near the end of the extension cord, fold the extension

cord to create a loop.

u Feed the loop into the cord retainer housing 11 as shown

in Fig. C.

u Hook the loop onto the cord retainer 7 so it rests in the

cord retainer.

u Plug the extensvion cord into the unit.

Correct hand position (Fig. D)

Always hold the trimmer, as shown in the illustrations in this

manual, with one hand on the switch handle and one hand on

the auxiliary handle (Fig. D). Never hold the unit by the blade

guard.

Use

Warning! Let the tool work at its own pace. Do not overload.

Switching on and off

Note: For your safety, this tool is equipped with a double

switching system. This system prevents starting the tool

inadvertently and will only allow operation while holding the

tool with both hands.

Switching on (g. E)

u To turn the tool “ON”, press the lock off button (4) in the

auxiliary handle (3) backward and squeeze the trigger

switch (5) . Once the unit is running, you may release the

lock off button. In order to keep the unit running you must

continue to squeeze the trigger. To turn the tool “OFF”,

release the trigger.

Warning! Never attempt to lock a switch in the ON position.

u Regularly oil the blades.

Guidelines for trimming

Extension cord (g. F)

u Always keep extension cord behind trimmer and away

from the trimming operation as shown in gure F. Never

drape it over a hedge being trimmed.

If you cut or damage the cord, unplug it at the electrical

outlet immediately, before inspecting or repairing cord.

Working position

u Maintain proper footing and balance and do not over-

reach.

u Wear safety goggles, non-skid footwear and rubber gloves

when trimming.

u Hold the tool rmly in both hands and turn the tool ON.

Always hold the trimmer, as shown in Fig. D, with one

hand on the switch handle and one hand on the auxiliary

handle. Never hold the tool by the blade guard.

Trimming new growth (g.G)

u A wide, sweeping motion, feeding the blade teeth through

the twigs is most effective. A slight downward tilt of the

blade, in the direction of motion gives the best cutting.
