Cutting Season
Observe country-specific or municipal
rules and regulations for cutting hedges.
Do not use your hedge trimmer during
rest periods customary in the
neighborhood.
Cutting Sequence
If a radical cut is necessary, cut a little at
a time in several stages.
Use lopping shears to cut out thick
branches first.
Cut the sides of the hedge first, then the
top.
Disposal
Do not throw cuttings into the garbage
can – they can be composted.
Preparations

Set the cutter bar to the straight (0°)
position.

N Start the engine.
N If you use a harness: Put on the
harness and attach it to the
machine.
Working Techniques
Horizontal Cut (with cutter bar at an
angle)
Cutting close to the ground from a
standing position, e.g. low shrubs.
Swing the cutter bar from side to side as
you move along – use both sides of the
cutting blades, do not rest the cutter bar
on the ground.
WARNING
K versions (HL 92 K, HL 94 K) are not
approved for cutting close to the ground.
Vertical Cut (with cutter bar at an angle)
Cutting without standing directly next to
the hedge, e.g. flowerbed between
operator and hedge.
Swing the cutter bar up and down in an
arc as you move along the hedge – use
both sides of the cutting blades.
