• Do not use aggressive detergents or solvents
to clean the plastic parts or hand grips.
• Do not spray water onto the motor
and electrical components and
prevent them from getting wet.
• To avoid overheating and damage to
the motor, always keep the cooling
air vents clean and free of debris.
7.4
CLEANING AND LUBRICATION
OF THE CUTTING MEANS
To increase the efficiency and working life
of the blades, clean and lubricate them
carefully after each work session:
DANGER
Do not touch the cutting means if the
machine is not disconnected from the
battery backpack and if the cutting means
is not completely at a standstill.
1. Place the machine in a stable
horizontal position on the ground.
2. Use a soft cloth to clean the blades,
along with a brush to remove
more difficult dirt and debris.
3. Lubricate the blades by applying a light layer
of specific oil, preferably the non-pollutant
type, along the upper edge of the blade.
7.5 NUTS AND BOLTS
• Keep all nuts, bolts and screws tight to be sure
the equipment is in safe working condition.
• Check regularly that the
handles are fixed firmly.
8. OCCASIONAL MAINTENANCE
8.1 CUTTING MEANS OCCASIONAL
MAINTENANCE
DANGER
Do not touch the cutting means if the
machine is not disconnected from the
battery backpack and if the cutting means
is not completely at a standstill.
If the blades are used correctly, following all the
instructions provided, they will not require any
maintenance work and will not need sharpening.
8.1.1 Checks
DANGER
Periodically check that the blades are
not bent, damaged or deformed and that
the screws are adequately tightened.
Adjustment of the distance between
blades is not necessary, as this is
predetermined by the manufacturer.
8.1.2 Sharpening
It is necessary to sharpen the blades when
the trimming performance decreases and
the branches tend to stick together.
ATTENTION
The blade must never be repaired, but must
be replaced as soon as signs of breaking are
noted or the sharpening limit is exceeded.
For safety reasons replacements should be
performed by an Authorised Service Centre.
ATTENTION
Always replace and never repair a blade
which has blunt cutting edges.
8.1.3 Replacement
DANGER
The blade must never be repaired, but must
be replaced as soon as signs of breaking are
noted or the sharpening limit is exceeded.
For safety reasons replacements should be
performed by an Authorised Service Centre.
Blades displaying the code indicated
on the Technical Data table should
be used on this machine.
Given product evolution, the blades listed
in the "Technical Data" table may be
replaced in time with others having similar
interchangeable and operating safety features.
9. STORAGE
