battery pack.
Cleaning the product
– Use a soft brush to remove any accumulated debris.
– Wear safety glasses to protect your eyes whilst cleaning.
– Wipe down the product enclosure with a slightly damp cloth.
– Do not spray the unit with water. Ingress of water may destroy
the switch and the electric motor.
Maintenance
1. Keep all nuts, bolts and screws tight to be sure that the
machine is in safe working condition.
2. For safety, examine the trimmer and replace any worn or
damaged parts.
3. Check that the guards are undamaged and correctly fitted.
Carry out necessary maintenance or repairs before using.
4. Do not use the trimmer if the blades are blunt or worn. This will
overstress the motor and gearbox of the machine.
Blade maintenance
1. Wear gloves when handling or cleaning the cutting blade.
2. Always clean the cutting blade after operation and lubricate
with protective spray. During longer cutting jobs, we
recommend periodically lubricating the cutting blade with
protective spray.
3. Visually check the condition of the edges of the cutting blade.
Check the tightness of the blade bolts. Ensure that the blade is
covered with the blade protector supplied.
Storage and transport
1. After cleaning the unit thoroughly. Store the unit in a safe, dry
place, allowing the motor to cool down beforehand.
2. Store the machine out of the reach of children.
3. Use the original packaging whenever possible.
