7. Cleaning and maintenance
HAZARD!
Always take the battery out of the equipment
before starting any cleaning work.
7.1 Cleaning
•
Keep all safety devices, air vents and the
motor housing free of dirt and dust as far as
possible. Wipe the equipment with a clean
cloth or blow it down with compressed air at
low pressure.
•
We recommend cleaning the equipment
immediately each time after use.
•
Clean the equipment regularly with a damp
cloth and some soft soap. Do not use
cleaning agents or solvents; these may
be aggressive to the plastic parts in the
equipment. Ensure that no water can get into
the interior of the equipment. The ingress of
water into an electric power tool increases the
risk of an electric shock.
•
The shears should be cleaned thoroughly
every time before and after use. A few drops
of oil (for example sewing machine oil)
applied to the blades improve the cutting
performance. However, never apply grease to
the blades.
•
To guarantee a constant exact cut, it is
necessary that grass residues and dirt is
removed also from the top and bottom blades.
Caution!
Because of the risk of injury or damage
to property, never clean the product
with running water, especially not with a
pressure hose. Store the cordless grass
shear and hedge trimmer in a dry and frost-
free location. The storage place must be
inaccessible to children.

7.2 Maintenance
•
For good cutting performance the blades
should always be sharp. They can therefore
be resharpened with a whetstone. In
particular, we recommend removing notches
and ridges which are produced on the blades
by stones or the like.
•
There are no other parts inside the equipment
which require maintenance.
8. Faults
The machine does not work
Check that the battery is charged and whether
the charging unit is working. If the equipment will
not work in spite of the voltage supply being OK,
please contact our customer service.
9. Disposal and recycling
The equipment is supplied in packaging to
prevent it from being damaged in transit. The
raw materials in this packaging can be reused or
recycled. The equipment and its accessories are
made of various types of material, such as metal
and plastic. Never place defective equipment in
your household refuse. The equipment should
be taken to a suitable collection center for proper
disposal. If you do not know the whereabouts of
such a collection point, you should ask in your
local council offi ces.
10. Storage
Store the equipment and its accessories out
of children's reach in a dark and dry place at
above freezing temperature. The ideal storage
temperature is between 50°F and 104°F (10°C
and 40°C). Keep the electric tool in its original
packaging.
