Description 400mm, 480mm, 550mm, 630mm Hedge Trimmer W

CONCEPTION AND MAIN APPLICATIONS L

These new Hedge Trimmers are optimum for tough trimming works
thanks to the more precise engagement of shear blade assembly H
with crank section.
And the shear blades can be changed quickly without disassembling
the machine.

Features and benefits P2/7

Two-hand Operation Switch
and Electric Brake Feature
for Absolute Safety
Double-sided, The blades start moving only when
Double Reciprocating Blades both of the two switches are pressed.
for Sharp Trimming And, as soon as one of them is
released, the blades stop quickly.
(within 0.5 sec.just after switched off.)



Strain Reliever
for Extension Cord
Prevents extension cord from
accidentally falling out of the
plug of power supply cord.
Easy-to-Replace Shear Blades
The blades can be changed only by
loosening the screws on the bottom
of the machine. Clutch for Safety
Protects the gears and the blades
The Spacer for Precise Engagement when the blades are blocked by
of Shear Blades with Crank Section foreign bodies such as thick
The spacer prevents the blades from being branches, stones, etc.
deformed and getting out of position.

< 2 > Disassembling shear blade assembly
1. Unscrew pan head screw M5 x 18, and disassemble under cover by sliding it in the direction of arrow.
as illustrated in Fig. 2.
(Only for the machine for USA. and Canada)




Under cover
Pan head screw M5 x 18

2. Unscrew 6 pan head screws marked with arrow, and disassemble shear blade assembly from motor housing
as illustrated in Fig. 3.

< Note > In case may be, gear assembly 65 can be disassembled together with shear blade assembly in this process.
Be careful, not to give damage on gear assembly 65 by falling it down.

1 Align the holes of shear blade A and B with the same
of guide plate.

2 Insert spacer between shear blade A and B with aligning its holes with
the same of guide plate.
For easily assembling spacer, it is recommended to insert pan head screws into
the screw holes of guide plate in advance.


3 Turn crank until its position comes to right angle against the joint line of housing R and L, as illustrated in Fig.5.
Otherwise the crank can not engage with the elliptic holes of shear blade A and B.
