• You can smoothen minor nudges in
the cutting teeth yourself using a knife
grinder to sharpen the cutting edges.
The trimmer will only cut well if the
teeth are sharp.
• Blunt, bent or damaged knife bars to
be replaced.
Storage
• Keep the device in the knife guard
( 15) supplied, dry and out of reach
of children.
• The device can be suspended onto the
suspension devices on the knife guard
( 13).
• Remove the battery before storing the
unit for longer periods of time (e.g. hi-
bernation).
• Store the battery only in a partially
charged state. The state of charge
should be 40 – 60 % over a longer
storage period.
• During a longer storage period, check
the state of charge of the battery and
recharge if necessary roughly every
3 months.
• In order to keep the battery well
charged, avoid exposing the appliance
to extreme heat or cold in storage.
• Store the equipment between 10° C
and 25° C. During storage, avoid ex-
treme cold or heat so the battery does
not lose power.
Waste Disposal
and Environmental
Protection
Remove the battery from the device and
take the device, battery, accessories and
packaging for environmentally friendly
recycling.
Machines do not belong with do-
mestic waste.
Do not dispose of batteries in house-
hold waste, fire (risk of explosion)
or water. Damaged batteries may
damage the environment and your
health if toxic fumes or liquids leak
out.
• Return the unit to a recycling centre.
• Dispose of batteries in discharged
condition. We recommend covering
the pole with adhesive tape to prevent
a short circuit. Do not open up the bat-
tery.
• Dispose of batteries in accordance with
the local regulations. Take batteries to
an old battery collection point where
they will be recycled in an environ-
mentally friendly manner. For informa-
tion about this, ask your local waste
management company or our service
centre.
• Throw the cut grass on the compost. Do
not throw it in the normal household
waste.
