The hedge-trimmer must only be used to trim
hedges or small bushes. It is forbidden to cut other
types of material. Do not use the hedge-trimmer as
a lever to lift, move or break objects, nor lock it on
fixed supports. It is forbidden to apply tools or
applications that are not the ones indicated by the
manufacturer onto the hedge-trimmer’s power
take-off. Do not use it for pruning trees or cutting
grass.

• Use only as much throttle as is needed to do the job.
Excessive engine speed is unnecessary.
• Avoid cutting thick branches, for which will damage
the blades and shorten the life of drive systems.
• Always keep your body to the carburetor side of your
trimmer, never on the muffler side.
• When a new machine is first operated, in the first
few minutes grease may come out of the gear case.
But, since this is excess grease, there is no cause
for alarm. Just wipe it off with the engine stopped for
next use.

• Always remember that the TIP of the line does
cutting. You will achieve better results by not
crowding the line into the cutting area. Allow the unit
to trim at its own pace.
