8.3 Angle change of rear handle
To permit vertical operation of the unit, the angle of the rear handle can be changed. To
reduce fatigue when trimming hedges, the handle can be swivelled 45° to the left or 90°to the
right.
8.3.1 How to change the angle (Fig. 5)
 Push back the throttle lever, and rotate the rear handle, pulling the adjustement trigger.
 Rotate the rear handle 90 or 45 degrees to the right or to the left.
 After completing the rotation, release the adjustment trigger To secure the rear handle,
hold the adjustment trigger gently with one finger
 Use only as much throttle as is needed to do the job. Excessive engine speed is
unnecessary.
 Always keep your body to the carburettor side of your trimmer, and never to the silencer
side.
 During the first few minutes when a new machine is first used, grease may come out of
the gearbox. Since this is excess grease, it is not a cause for alarm. Just wipe it off when
the engine is switched off.
8.3.2 Vertical operation (Fig. 6)
 When rotating the rear handle to the right, hold the rear handle with your right hand, and
the front handle with your left hand.
 When rotating the rear handle to the left, hold the front handle with your right hand, and
the rear handle with your left hand. Cut using a circular movement.
8.3.3 Horizontal operation (Fig. 7)
 Tilting the trimmer 5 to 10° towards the object to be cut will make things easier and
produce good results.
Always follow the safety precautions. 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.
