parts, stones etc. do not enter the
blades while trimming. This can cau-
se damage to the cutting unit. If the
blades become jammed with solid ob-
jects, turn the device off immediately.
• Ensure that the screws in the blade bar
are firmly in place.
• Only use sharp blades to ensure good
trimming performance and to protect
the device and rechargeable battery.
• Do not overload the device while wor-
king to such an extent that it comes to
a standstill.
Working using the grass shears
• Grass is best cut when it is dry and not
too high.
Working using the shrub shears
• Move the device in a steady forward
motion, or up and down in an arch-sha-
ped motion.
• The double-sided blade bar enables trim-
ming in both directions, or via pendulum
movements from one side to the other.
