Hedge trimmers, also known as hedge trimmers or tea tree trimmers, are commonly used to trim tea trees, green belts, etc. They are professional pruning tools in landscaping and greening. They generally rely on small gasoline engines to drive the blades to cut and rotate. Therefore, it is important to pay attention to the correct usage method when using them. So how do you use the hedge machine?
1. Turn off and cool the engine, mix unleaded gasoline (two-stroke machine) and engine oil in a ratio of 25:1 by volume, and inject the oil into the fuel tank.
2. Turn the circuit switch to the "ON" position, close the throttle lever, and press the carburetor pump ball until there is fuel flow in the return pipe (transparent).
3. Pull up the moving rope 3 to 5 times, start the hedge machine, move the throttle lever to the half open position, let the engine idle for 3 to 5 minutes, and then move the throttle lever to the "ON" position, and the engine will operate normally at the rated speed.
4. When using a hedge trimmer to trim a hedge, it should be kept smooth and tidy, with a consistent height and a downward slope of about 5-10 ° for trimming, which is more labor-saving, lightweight, and can improve the quality of trimming.
5. When operating, the operator's body should be on the side of the carburetor, and it is not allowed to be on the end of the exhaust pipe to avoid being burned by exhaust gas. Adjust and control the throttle according to work needs to avoid excessive speed.
6. After trimming, stop the machine, close the throttle, and clean the outer shell.
The above is the specific usage method of the hedge machine. In addition, as the hedge machine is equipped with high-speed reciprocating cutting knives, if operated incorrectly, it can pose danger to the human body. Therefore, it is necessary to pay attention to some operating precautions and safe operation.
