MAINTENANCE (Cont.)
WARNING:
Do not operate the trimmer with dull or damaged cutting blades.
This may cause overload and will give unsatisfactory cutting results.
Cleaning the hedge trimmer
Stop the motor and disconnect from power supply. Clean dirt and debris from the
body of the hedge trimmer using a damp cloth with a mild detergent.
NOTE: Do not use any strong detergents on the plastic housing or the handle. They
can be damaged by certain aromatic oils such as pine and lemon and by solvents
such as kerosene.
Transporting and storing
1. Always place the blade cover on the blade before storing or transporting the
hedge trimmer. Use caution to avoid the sharp teeth of the blade.
2. Clean the hedge trimmer thoroughly before storing. Store the hedge trimmer
indoors, in a dry place that is inaccessible to children. Keep away from corrosive
agents such as garden chemicals and de-icing salts.
