Maintenance/Cleaning
Repair and servicing work not de-
scribed in this manual should always
be carried by our Service Centre.
Use only original parts.
Pull out the power plug before carry-
ing out any work on the equipment.
Wear gloves while handling the
blades.
Carry out the following maintenance and
cleaning work regularly. This will guarantee
a long and reliable service life.
•
Before each use, check the hedge trim-
mer for obvious defects such as loose,
worn or damaged parts. Check the se-
cure seating of the bolts in the cutter bar.
•
Do not use the unit if the blades are
blunt or worn. This will overstress the
motor and gearbox of the machine.
•
Check coverings and safety devices for
damage and correct seating. Replace
these where necessary.
•
Keep the ventilation slots and motor
housing of the device clean. Use a
damp cloth or a brush to do this. Do not
wash down the equipment with water,
or submerge it in water.
•
Do not use any cleaning agents or solvents.
These could cause irreparable damage to
the equipment. Chemical substances can
attack the plastic parts of the equipment.
•
Clean the cutter bar carefully after each
use. Wipe it off with an oily cloth or
spray it with a metal protective spray.
Storage
•
Keep the trimmer in the blade guard
supplied, in a dry place and out of
reach of children.
