Blade life
Blade life will vary according to the
frequency and length of use. For ex-
ample, using the unit for 10 minutes
every 3 days, the life expectancy is
approximately 3 years. If cutting effi-
ciency is reduced substantially de-
spite proper maintenance, the blades
have exceeded their service life and
should be changed.
The replacement par t no. is
WER9602.
Battery life
Battery life will vary according to the
frequency and length of use. If the
battery is charged 3 times a month,
the service life will be approximately
6 years. If the unit is left without be-
ing charged for more than 6 months,
the charge will drain from the battery
and their service life may be short-
ened. Therefore, even when not us-
ing regularly, it is recommended that
the unit be recharged at least once
every 6 months.
