6. Operation
The area to be cut must fi rst be cleared of stones

6.1 Cutting grass

Allow the grass cutter to glide above the ground.
The best results are achieved when the lawn is
dry.
When you notice a drop in cutting performance,
re-charge the tool immediately so that the battery
does not become fully discharged.
6.2 Trimming hedges
The tool can be used to trim small hedges and
shrubs.
Hold the tool slightly tilted in relation to the hedge
you want to cut.
First cut the sides from the bottom up, then cut
the top.
Watch out for foreign objects in or on the hedge
which could damage the blades.
To prevent injuries, slide the blade guard
over the blade.
When is the best time to trim hedges?

leaves in the autumn should be trimmed in

June and October.

Hedges which do not lose their leaves should
be cut in April and August.

6.3 Changing the blades

Warning! Risk of injury!
To prevent injuries, slide the blade guard
over the blade.
To remove the blade, press the release mecha-
nism (Fig. 11) and take out the blade as shown in
Fig. 12.
Once you have removed the blade you will be
able to see the toothed wheels of the gear unit.
Make sure that no dirt gets into the gear unit when
you change the blade.
To assemble, proceed in the reverse order.
Caution! The blade will fall out when the release
mechanism is pressed (Fig. 11)!
To remove the hedge cutter blade, proceed in
exactly the same way.
Fitting the blade (Fig. 13-14)
Insert the narrow side of the blade housing in the
equipment housing. Press the blade release me-
chanism and then the blade housing against the
equipment housing until it makes an audible click.
Proceed in exactly the same way to fasten the
hedge cutter blade.
7. Cleaning, maintenance and
ordering of spare parts
7.1 Cleaning
•
Keep all safety devices, air vents and the
motor housing free of dirt and dust as far as
possible. Wipe the equipment with a clean
cloth or blow it with compressed air at low
pressure.
•
We recommend that you clean the device
immediately each time you have finished
using it.
•
Clean the equipment regularly with a moist
cloth and some soft soap. Do not use
cleaning agents or solvents; these could
attack the plastic parts of the equipment. En-
sure that no water can seep into the device.
•
A few drops of oil (e.g. sewing machine oil)
will improve the cutting performance of the
blades, but never apply any grease to the
blades.
•
To ensure constant exact cutting it is also
