We recommend that you clean and care for your blade set during and after clipping.

Re-attach the blade set after cleaning (Fig. 7/8). Switch the appliance on briefly (approx. 10

• For a good and long-lasting cutting performance, it is important to oil the blade set frequently.
• If the cutting performance deteriorates after long use despite regular cleaning and oiling, the blade
set should be replaced.

1. Detach the filter cover using a blunt lever and remove from the housing (Fig. 11a)
2. Clean the air filter using the cleaning brush.
3. Push the filter cover into the housing until it locks into position (Fig. 11b).
4. Only wipe the appliance with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Do not use solvents or abrasives.
