Service, spare parts and guarantee
Maintenance and repair
The maintenance and repair of modern electric trimmers and their safety features require qualified training and a workshop with
special tools and test equipment.
Any work not described in this manual must be performed only by a MAKITA service centre.
The MAKITA service centres have all the necessary equipment and skilled and experienced personnel, who can work out cost-effective
solutions and advise you in all matters.
Repair attempts by third parties or unauthorised persons will void the warranty.
Spare parts
The reliable long-term operation and safety of your trimmer depend on quality replacement parts. Use only ORIGINAL MAKITA
parts.
Only original spare parts and accessories guarantee the highest quality in material, dimensions, functioning and safety.
Original spare parts and accessories can be obtained from your local dealer. He will also have the spare part lists to determine the
required spare part numbers, and will be constantly informed about the latest improvements and spare part innovations.
Please bear in mind that if parts other than original MAKITA spare parts are used, this will automatically invalidate the MAKITA
product guarantee.
Guarantee
MAKITA guarantees the highest quality and will therefore reimburse all costs for repair by replacement of damaged parts resulting
from material or production faults occurring within the guarantee period after purchase.

who is responsible for the guarantee of the product.
