6.2 Using the tool as a shrub shears
Hold the shrub shears slightly tilted in the direc-
tion of the shrub you wish to cut. Start by cutting
the sides of the shrub working from the bottom
up, and
fi
nally cut the top of the shrub. The blade
guard hood must be pushed over the blade and
the rechargeable battery removed when the tool
is not being used.
•
Shrubs which loose their leaves in the autumn
should be cut in June and October.
•
Evergreen shrubs should be cut in April and
August.
6.2.1 Assembly
Since the tool is supplied as a grass shears (see
section 6.1), the grass cutting blade must be re-
placed with the supplied shrub cutter blade.
Caution!
Carry out all the following assembly,
dismantling and adjustment work without a bat-
tery – risk of injury. Use protective gloves and the
blade guard hood which is supplied with the tool.
1. To remove the blade, push the blade release
mechanism (Fig. 6a) and take o
ff
the blade
(Fig. 6b). Once you have removed the blade
you will be able to see the toothed wheels of
the gear unit. Take care that no dirt gets into
the gear unit when you change the blade.
2. (Fig. 7a) Push the blade housing into the
mount on the tool housing.
3. Push the blade release mechanism forward
again, press down on the upper section (Fig.
7b) and press the blade into the lock at the
same time. The drive unit on the tool is now
connected to the blade.
4. Push the battery into the battery mount provi-
ded until you hear the catch click into positi-
on.
5. Remove the blade guard hood.

Proceed as described in section 6.1.
7. Cleaning, maintenance and
ordering of spare parts
Danger! Remove the battery!
7.1 Cleaning
•
Keep all safety devices, air vents and the
motor housing free of dirt and dust as far as
possible. Wipe the equipment with a clean
cloth or blow it with compressed air at low
pressure.
•
We recommend that you clean the device
immediately each time you have finished
using it.
•
Clean the equipment regularly with a moist
cloth and some soft soap. Do not use
cleaning agents or solvents; these could at-
tack the plastic parts of the equipment. Ensu-
re that no water can seep into the device. The
ingress of water into an electric tool increases
the risk of an electric shock.
•
The shears should be cleaned thoroughly
every time before and after use. Applying a
few drops of oil (e.g. sewing machine oil) to
the blades will improve the cutting perfor-
mance. However, never apply grease to the
blades.
•
To guarantee a constant exact cut it is ne-
cessary that grass residues and dirt are also
removed from between the top and bottom
blades.
Caution!
Because of the risk of injury or damage to proper-
ty, never clean the product with running water, es-
pecially not with a pressure hose. Store the cord-
less shears in a dry and frost-free location. The
storage place must be inaccessible to children.
7.2 Maintenance
•
For good cutting performance the blades
should always be sharp. They can be reshar-
pened therefore with a whetstone. In particu-
lar we recommend to remove notches and
ridges which are produced on the blades by
stones or the like.
•
There are no other parts inside the tool which
require maintenance.
