EN POW6128 NOTE: When shaping it is advisable to achieve a trapezoidal shape (Fig. 11). This is where the bottom is wider than the top. A trapezoidal cut corresponds to the natural growth of plants and results in optimal hedge growth, as it will expose more light to the bottom of the hedge. 9 AFTER USE   Switch the product off, allow the engine to cool down and then remove the spark plug connector.
