Prior to cutting, check the area to be cut for any hidden
foreign objects. ie fencing wire. These can be hidden in
branches etc and should be removed or care taken when
working close.
Do Not use the hedge trimmer close to ANY electrical wires
Shaping
1. Trim a hedge so that it is
wider at the bottom than
the top.
2. This improves light
penetration and promotes
healthy growth.
3. Narrow the hedge
approximately 100 mm for
every metre in height.
4. A bush can be round or column shaped.
Cutting
1. Assume a secure position,
using two hands to hold the
trimmer and switch on.
2. Trim both sides of the
hedge, starting at the
bottom. This prevents
cuttings falling into the area
yet to be cut.
3. Pass the blade lightly
through the surface of the
hedge. Do not attempt to
cut too deep.
4. Trim the top of the hedge.
5. For older hedges that
require cutting back substantially, use pruning shears to
cut the thicker branches and then finish the job with the
hedge trimmer.
WARNING.
Do not let the blade come into contact with
fencing wire or any other object that could damage it.
