tions, thus guaranteeing high cutting perfor-
mance and smooth operation.
•
Take care to maintain a steady foothold and
hold the equipment firmly in both hands away
from your body. Before you switch on, make
sure that the equipment is not touching any
objects.
Work practice
•
A hedge trimmer can be used to cut shrubs
and bushes as well as hedges.
•
To obtain the best cutting results, hold the
hedge trimmer so that the cutter teeth are
at an angle of approx. 15° in relation to the
hedge (see Fig. 4).
•
The twin-bladed cutters rotate in opposite
directions, thus enabling cutting in both direc-
tions (see Fig. 5).
•
It is recommended to tie a guide line of string
or the like along the hedge so that you cut the
hedge to a level height. Cut off all branches
which protrude beyond the guide line (see
Fig. 6/7).
•
Cut the sides of the hedge with curve-shaped
movements from the bottom up (see Fig. 8).
7. Cleaning, maintenance and
ordering of spare parts
Danger!
Remove the battery pack before doing any
cleaning and maintenance work.
7.1 Cleaning
•
Regularly clean the clamping mechanism by
blowing it out with compressed air or cleaning
it with a brush. Do not use tools for cleaning.
•
Keep the handles free of grease so that you
can maintain a firm grip.
•
Clean the equipment as required with a damp
cloth and, if necessary, mild washing up li-
quid.
•
Never immerse the equipment in water or
other liquids in order to clean it.
•
Use a brush to remove deposits from the sa-
fety guards.
•
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

GB
using it.
•
Clean the equipment regularly with a moist
cloth and some soft soap. Do not use
cleaning agents or solvents; these could at-
tack the plastic parts of the equipment. Ensu-
re that no water can seep into the device. The
ingress of water into an electric tool increases
the risk of an electric shock.
7.2 Maintenance
The cutters should be cleaned and lubricated at
regular intervals in order to ensure best perfor-
mance at all times. Remove deposits with a brush
and apply a thin fi lm of oil (Fig. 9).
