Cleaning/Maintenance
Leave any work not covered
in this manual to our Service
Centre. Only use original
parts. There is a risk of injury!
Ensure that the safety key (
7) is
removed before all tasks.
Never use cleaning agents or sol-
vents, which can cause irreparable
damage to the unit. Chemicals can
attack the plastic components on the
unit.
Wear gloves when handling the
blades (
9/12). There is a risk of
injury from cuts!
Clean and service the unit regularly as fol-
lows. This guarantees a long life for your
unit:
• Check the covers and guards for dam-
age and correct position. If necessary,
replace.
• Keep the ventilation slits, motor housing
and handles on the equipment clean.
To do this, use a damp cloth or brush.
• Always keep the blade clean.
After using the equipment, it is impera-
tive to:
- Clean the blade
(with an oily cloth);
- Oil the blade shaft
with an oil can or
spray.
• Slight notches on the blades can be
evened out. For this, sand down the
blades with an oil stone. Only sharp
blades can cut properly.
• Blunt, bent or damaged blades must
be changed.
We are not liable for damage caused by
the use of the unit if the original cause was
improper repair or the use of non-original
parts or through use other than that desig-
nated in this manual.
Storage
• Keep the equipment in the blade guard
supplied, dry and out of reach of chil-
dren.
• Store the battery only in a partially
charged state. The state of charge
should be 40 – 60 % over a longer
storage period.
• Store the equipment between 10° C
and 25° C. During storage, avoid ex-
treme cold or heat so the battery does
not lose power.
• During a longer storage period, check
the state of charge of the battery and
recharge if necessary roughly every
3 months.
