Remove plug from socket before adjusting
or maintaining tool. Wipe down housing with
a damp cloth only and then dry well. Do not
use solvents and do not wet the equipment
with water: Never use high pressure or
steam jet device for the unit cleaning.
Always keep vent slits free of obstruction.
After each use or, with prolonged use, now
and again carefully clean cutter bar, rub
over with an oily cloth or treat with a metal-
care spray. Always retighten loose screws
and nuts. Always have damaged cutter
bars repaired by a specialist. Store hedge

The transport guard can, if required, also
serve as a wall-mounted holder. A right
placing of the safety cutter bar inside of the
transport guard assures a perfect running

substitution and the sharpening of the
blades have to be made strictly by a
qualified technician.
