NOTICE:
Do not trim the wet grass or foliage of
small trees.
Cutting long lawn
Do not try to cut long grass all at once. Instead, cut the
lawn in steps. Leave a day or two between cuts until the
lawn becomes evenly short.
NOTE: Cutting long grass to a short length all at once
may cause the grass to die.
Trimming (for hedge trimmer)
CAUTION:
Be careful not to accidentally
contact a metal fence or other hard objects while
trimming. The blades may break and cause an injury.

Be careful not to allow the shear
blades to contact the ground. The tool may recoil
and cause an injury.
CAUTION:
Overreaching with a hedge trim-
mer, particularly from a ladder, is extremely
dangerous. Do not work while standing on anything
wobbly or infirm.
NOTICE:
Do not attempt to cut branches thicker
than 10 mm in diameter with the tool. Cut branches
to 10 cm lower than the cutting height using branch
cutters before using the tool.

pressing the lock-off button, and then move it forward.
For basic operation, tilt the blades toward the trimming
direction and move it calmly and slowly at the speed
