How to use

Before use, ensure the battery is fully charged and properly fitted according to the tool’s battery insertion guide. Hold the hedge trimmer with both hands, keeping a firm grip on the handle and the front support to control movement. Move the trimmer in smooth, sweeping strokes along the hedge top and sides, working from the base upward for vertical faces or from one end to the other for horizontal cuts. Make light finishing passes to achieve the desired shape. For safety, keep the cutting blades away from body and limbs, and allow the blades to stop completely before setting the tool down.

Recommendations

Use suitable personal protective equipment such as gloves, eye protection and sturdy footwear. Avoid operating the tool in wet conditions or when visibility is poor. For extended work sessions, rotate tasks to reduce fatigue and check the blade condition regularly; sharpen or replace blades according to manufacturer guidance to maintain cutting performance.
