Function Description
The cordless hedge trimmer features a
laser-cut knife of special-grade steel. When
trimming, the cutting teeth move to and
fro in a linear shearing motion. The strike
guard at the tip of the knife prevents un-
pleasant kickback reactions when hitting
walls, fences, etc. Operators are protected
by the appliance’s two-hand safety switch
and quick-stop brake function. The hand
protection guards your hands against twigs
and branches.
