Cleaning & Maintenance - Elem Garden Technic TDE40V37-LI Mode D'emploi

A warning that the vibration emission during actual use of the power tool can differ
from the declared total value depending on the ways in which the tool is used and of the need
to identify safety measures to protect the operator that are based on an estimation of exposure
in the actual conditions of use (taking account of all parts of the operating cycle such as the
times when the tool is switched off and when it is running idle in addition to the trigger time).
Cleaning / Maintenance
Have work that is not described in these instructions carried out by a customer service
centre that we have authorized. Use only original parts.
Wear gloves when handling the blade. Switch off the apparatus, remove the ignition key (10)
and wait for the blades to come to a standstill.
General cleaning and maintenance work
Do not jet water onto the appliance. This would result in the danger of an electric shock.
- Always keep the equipment clean. To clean, use a brush or cloth but no detergent or solvent.
- After mowing, use a piece of wood or plastic to remove adherent plant remains from the wheels,
ventilation holes, ejection hole and blade area.
Do not use hard or pointed objects, as these may damage the blade.
- Before each use, check the apparatus for obvious defects such as loose, worn or damaged parts.
Check that all nuts, bolts and screws are sitting firmly.
- Check the covers and protective devices for damage and check that they are sitting correctly.
Replace them if necessary.
Changing the blade
If the blade is blunt, it can be sharpened by a specialist workshop. If the blade is damaged or
showing signs of imbalance, it must be replaced (see chapter on " Spare parts").
1. Turn the equipment over.
2. Use sturdy gloves and hold the blade (20) firmly. Turn the blade screw (21) anticlockwise off
using a screwdriver.
3. Install the new blade (20) in the reverse order. Ensure that the blade (20) is positioned
correctly and the blade screw (21) tightened firmly.
Storage
Release the screws (2+6) and fold the bow-type handle (1) and the lower handle (3) together so that
the device takes up less space. Make sure not to pinch the machine cables while doing this.
- Keep the equipment dry and out of reach of children.
- Allow the motor to cool before storing the equipment in a confined space.
- Remove the battery before storing the unit for longer periods of time (e.g. hibernation).
- Store the battery only in a partially charged state. The state of charge should be 40-60 % over a
longer storage period (two LED lights of the charge status indicator light up).
- During a longer storage period, check the state of charge of the battery and recharge if necessary
roughly every 3 months.
- Store the equipment between 10 °C and 25 °C. During storage, avoid extreme cold or heat so the
battery does not lose power.
We will not be liable for damages caused by our equipment where these are caused by improper
repair or the use of non-original parts or by use other than for the intended purpose.
