4.3 Setting a working position

Attention! The mains plug

must be disconnected

and the cutting blade sheath

should remain in position when

setting the working position !

Never take hold of the cutting

blade to turn the blade head

or to extend the telescopic

handle!

Note: The cutting blade has

a total of 8 working positions

(12° increments from 0°/horizon-

tal to 84° elevation).

Adjustment to any of the 5 inter-

mediate settings for the 3 work-

ing positions described above

is made in the same manner.

The positions

de-

scribed above are recommended

for straight forward handling.

Important! Always ensure that

the selected position snaps in

correctly. Danger of injury!

5. Operation

(fig. H / I)

The Hedge Trimmer is fitted with

a two-hand safety switch to pre-

vent the tool being turned on by

accident. Thus both hands are

required to operate the Hedge

Trimmer (fig. H):

1. Hold by the 3-point guide

handle

and press one of

the three button switches

2. Hold the grip

with the other

hand and depress the button

switch

. The Hedge Trimmer

will then start to run.

Simply release either of these

switches in order to stop the

trimmer.

In accordance with safety regula-

tions, an additional safety device

ensures that the blade motion

stops within 0.5 sec.

Select one of the basic working

positions

according

to the description section 4.2 and

referring to figure E, adjust the

Telescopic Hedge Trimmer as

follows (fig. D / F/ G):

1. (Fig. F) Adjust the length of

the telescopic handle by

pressing and holding the ad-

justing button

while extend-

ing the telescopic handle to

the desired working length

(fig. F). The length of the tele-

scopic handle can be extended

by max. 310 mm.

2. (Fig. G 1) Press and hold the

oval pimpled button

while

turning the trimmer head

the axial direction into one of

the working positions

for example into position

for trimming the top of a high

hedge (arrow must point to

the position number – see

figure D 1).

The projecting guide (impact

protection) prevents any

kick-back if the trimmer hits

a solid object.

Cable Lock / Extension Cable

(fig. I)

Loop the extension cable and

insert the loop into the cable lock

. This cable lock prevents any

accidental disconnection from the

power supply. Plug the connector

into the extension cable socket.

Safety Clutch (Slip-Clutch)

The safety clutch protects motor,

gear and blades from mechani-

cal damage caused by the

blades jamming. If the blades

are jammed by an object, discon-

nect the trimmer from the power

supply and remove the object.

Note: The trimmer head can

be set to one of 7 axial posi-

tions between 0° and 180°

at increments of 30°.

3. (Fig. G 2) Adjust the cutting

angle for the trimmer blade

by pressing and holding the

round adjusting button

while

adjusting the position of the

trimmer blade

for working

as required.

(Our example: position

Arrow must point to the position

number – see figure D 1).

Note: All 3 working positions

for selection can be set in this

way.

The working position has been

correctly set when the position

number indicates the selected

position (see example figure

D 1).

The safety devices in-

stalled by the manufac-

turer must not be removed

and / or bypassed, eg. by tying

down a switch in the handle.

Never use a tool which is not

complete or which has been

modified from its original

design.

To avoid unintentional start,

never carry the Telescopic

Hedge Trimmer at its button

switches
