ENGLISH ◆ ◆ ◆ ◆ ◆ ◆ Disconnect the plug from the supply and remove the fuse from the plug. Cut off the plug and dispose of it safely; a plug with bared copper conductors is dangerous if engaged in a live socket outlet. Only fit 13 Amperes BS1363A approved plugs fitted with the correctly rated fuse (1). The cable wire colours, or a letter, will be marked at the connection points of most good quality plugs. Attach the wires to their respective points in the plug (see above).
ENGLISH Hints for optimum use ◆ Slightly tilt the tool (up to 15° relative to the line of cut) so that the blade tips point slightly towards the hedge (fig. D1). This will cause the blades to cut more effectively. ◆ Start by trimming the top of the hedge. Hold the tool at the desired angle and move it steadily along the line of cut (fig. D2). The double-sided blade allows you to cut in either direction.
