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 wa-
ter, or submerge it in water.
•
Do not use any cleaning agents or sol-
vents. 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.
