Maintenance
m
WARNING!
Always switch the product off and let the
product cool down before performing inspection, maintenance,
and cleaning work.
1. If the cordless pruner requires cleaning, do not use
solvents to clean it. Only use a moistened soft cloth.
Never let any liquid get inside the tool; and never immerse
any part of the tool into any liquid.
2. Apply oil around the center bolt and open and close the
tool about 10 times to work it in. Use the steel wool to
rub the oil over the cutting surfaces. Spray the tool with
alcohol and wipe with a paper towel.
3. Inspect the product before each use for worn and
damaged parts. Do not operate it if you find broken and
worn parts.
Blade Maintenance
To ensure years of efficient and trouble-free operation,
blade cleaning should be performed if sap and debris have
built-up, or if you live in an area where the soil is sandy.
Cleaning unusually heavy deposits may require removal of the
blade.

any damage or injuries caused by repair of the pruner by an
unauthorized person or by mishandling of the trimmer.
1. Keep the cutting blades clean and free of debris.
Remove trimmings.
2. Keep the blades sharp. Have a worn or damaged cutting
device replaced with a new one of the same type by a
qualified specialist.

Blade Sharpening
m
WARNING!
Always take extra care, especially when
your hand may be facing the cutting edge.
Bypass pruners will generally only have one blade, the lower
part being the counter blade which should never require
sharpening.
The cut of a bypass tool is achieved by the blade precisely
passing by the counter blade. It therefore follows that you
should never sharpen the flat side of the blade. If steel is
removed from here, the two parts will no longer meet precisely
and the tool will fail to cut. You must only sharpen on the
outside or bevelled side of the blade.
1.
To sharpen your cordless pruner, hold the open pruner flat
in one hand and with the other hand place the sharpener
at a 15 degree angle along the bevelled side of the blade
(Fig. 12).
NOTE: Be careful to not sharpen at too steep an angle as
this could damage the edge of the blade.
2. Move the sharpener in one direction only, with smooth
strokes from base to end 4 to 5 times.
m
WARNING!
Do not over-sharpen. Be sure to test blades
repeatedly throughout the sharpening process to prevent over-
sharpening.
3.
Turn the pruner over so the flat side of the blade is facing
up and slide the sharpener flush along the unbeveled edge
to remove burrs created by sharpening the cutting blade.
4. A bench vise can also be used to hold the tool during
sharpening, taking care not to over tighten the vise which
can bend the tool.
m
WARNING!
Minimize coating loss. Stay to the edge of
the blade when sharpening blades with low-friction or titanium
coating to minimize the loss of coating.
