To avoid serious personal injury, always remove the battery pack from the tool when cleaning or
performing any maintenance.

WARNING
General Maintenance
■ Keep all safety devices, air vents and the motor housing free of dirt and dust. Avoid using
solvents when cleaning plastic parts. Most plastics are susceptible to damage from various
types of commercial solvents and may be damaged by their use. Use clean, dry cloths to
remove dirt, dust, oil, grease, etc.
■ Remove any buildup of grass and leaves on or around the motor cover. Wipe the hedge trimmer
with a dry cloth occasionally. Do not use water as this may damage any electrical components.
■ To store the hedge trimmer, remove the battery pack from the hedge trimmer.
■ Always place the guard on the blade before storing or transporting the hedge trimmer. Use
caution to avoid the sharp teeth of the blade.
■ Store the hedge trimmer indoors, in a dry, well-ventilated place that is inaccessible to children.
Cleaning the Blade
■ Remove the battery pack.
■ Keep the cutting blades clean and free of debris.
■ Use a brush or high pressure air (max. 3 bar) to remove debris from the blades.
■ With gloves on, clean the blades with a dry cloth to remove loose material.
■ Apply a small amount of light machine oil to the edge of the top blade to retain good cutting
performance. See Lubricating the Blade section.
■ Keep the cutting blades sharp. Have heavily worn or damaged blades replaced with identical
parts by a qualified service dealer.
■ Adjustment of the distance between blades is not necessary, as this is predetermined by the
manufacturer.
WARNING
Wear safety gloves when working on the cutting device and close to it. Use appropriate tools to
remove debris e.g. a brush or wooden stick. Never use your bare hands.
