OPERATION
13. High Voltage Cables
Depending on the voltage of the cables and the weather conditions there is a danger of
electric flashover if the head or arms approach the cables too closely.
ALWAYS MAINTAIN A MINIMUM CLEARANCE
DISTANCE OF 5’ WHEN OPERATING NEAR HIGH
VOLTAGE CABLES.
If in any doubt consult your local electric company
regarding a safe procedure for work.
OVERHEAD OBSTRUCTIONS Always be aware
that the machine is approximately 5 feet high when
folded - take care when maneuvering in areas with
overhead obstacles especially power cables, low
bridges etc. or when entering buildings.
14. Hedge Cutting Procedure
Cut the side and bottom of the field side first. This
leaves the maximum thickness of hedge on the
road side to prevent the possibility of any debris
being thrown through the hedge into the path of
oncoming vehicles.
