BEFORE USE
WARNING!
Always ensure that the tool is switched off and
totally stop before operation.
1. REPLACING THE CUTTING BLADE
CAUTION:
Always wear work gloves when replacing a blade.
Install the blade ( Fig.2 , 3 , 4 )
Mounting blade
1. Press the clip on the bottom cover (4) and pull along the
direction mark, and remove the bottom cover from the tool.
2. Align the mark on the housing (A) and gear (B).
3. Align the marks on the fixed blade (C) and movable blade (D).
4. Position the two holes on the blade to the two pins on gears,
and push the blade until it is fit into the housing.
5. Place the bottom cover on the tool and push the clip on it
until the clip firmly locks to the tool.
Replacing blade
Remove the bottom cover in the same way as mounting blade,
and then change the blade to which you require. Place back the
bottom cover, and make sure it is fixed firmly to the tool.
2. CHARGING THE BATTERY ( Fig. 5 )
CAUTION:
For indoor use only. Charge only with supplied charger.
Your tool is delivered to you partly charged and must be fully
charged before use. For the first charge we recommend charging
for 10~12hours.
To charge, plug the charger jack (8) into the charging socket (9)
and place the tool onto a clean dry surface.
Connect the charger to a suitable power point. The upper lamp
will light up “RED” while you charging the tool and all three (3)
lamps will light up GREEN after it becomes fully charged. While
you operating the tool, all three (3) lamps lighting up GREEN
means battery is full. The lamps will go off one by one as battery
is exhausted, and the upper lamp will light up RED when battery
becomes almost empty.
The charging time is approximately 3~5hours.
Disconnect the charger from the power point when battery is full
charged.
NOTE:
Whilst charging, the charger and the tool may become
warm to touch, this is normal and does not indicate problem.
Disconnect the charger from the power point when it is not in use
and store it in a dry secure place.
WARNING:
It is important to disconnect the charger from the
power point after the battery is fully charged. Do not leave your
battery on charge continuously as this may damage the battery.
Avoid operating, charging or storing your battery in temperatures
below 0°C and above 40°C.
OPERATION
CAUTION :
Always wear eye protection.
1. Shearing ( Fig. 6 )
Remove all stones or other objects from within the working area.
Push the safety switch forward and depress the on/off switch.
Put down the device horizontally with your hand, and the blade
should touch the ground. Results are best when the lawn is dry.
NOTE:
make sure there is no hard obstacle in the working area,
such like stone etc. or the blade will be damaged.
2. Trimming ( Fig. 7 )
The device may be used to trim small hedges and shrubs.
Hold the device in a slight angle to the hedge you would like to
trim.
Trim the lateral areas from the lower to the upper edges first, and
then trim the upper edge.
NOTE:
wear safety goggles and eye protection to avoid accident.
MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR
WARNING!
Always ensure that the tool is switched off and
totally stop before making any adjustments or maintenance
procedures.
--- Never use water to cleaning the unit.
--- Always clean the grass shear immediately after use. Brush
the blade using a stiff nylon brush to remove any debris.
Wear safety glasses to protect your eyes whilst cleaning.
--- Always store the unit in a dry place.
--- Inspect the grass shear before each use.
--- Have the unit professionally repaired if any damage occurs.
--- The blade rail should be cleaned and treated with fine oil
after each use.
--- Use the blade guard for transportation and storage.
--- Regularly check that all the fixing screws are tight. They
may vibrate loose over time.
--- Keep the tool’s cooling vents unclogged and clean at all
times.
--- Regularly check to see if any dust or foreign matter has en-
tered the grills near the motor and around the switches.
--- If the body of the tool needs cleaning, wipe it with a soft
damp cloth. A mild detergent can be used but nothing like
alcohol, petrol or other cleaning agent.
