Cutting Sequence

If a radial cut is necessary, cut a little at

a time in several passes.

Vertical Cut:

Swing the blade up and down in an arc as

you move along the hedge. Use both sides

of the cutting blade.

Cut without standing directly next to the

hedge, e.g. with a ﬂower bed between

operator and hedge.

Overhead Cut:

Hold the shaft upright with a 90° blade

angle to cut an upper surface of a hedge.
