You should have any repair and
maintenance work that is not
described in these instructions
(e.g. replacing carbon brushes)
carried out by a specialist com-
pany. Only use original Grizzly
spare parts. Allow the device to
cool off before undertaking any
maintenance or cleaning work.
There is a danger of burns!
Always remove the mains plug be-
fore working on the device.
Wear gloves when handling the
blades.
Cleaning
Do not use any solvents or petrol
for cleaning. This could damage
the device.
•
Clean the surface, ventilation slits and
handles on the device using a dry clo-
th, paintbrush or hand brush.
•
Only dry wipe the saw chain. After cle-
aning, apply a small amount of chain
oil to the saw chain.
Apply individual drops of oil on the
joints and on the tooth tips of the indi-
vidual chain links.
Maintenance
•
Check the hedge trimmer before each
use for obvious defects such as loose,
worn or damaged parts. Ensure that
the screws in the cutter bar are firmly
in place.
•
Do not cut with blunt or worn blades
as otherwise you will overload the mo-
tor and gears of your device.

•
Check the covers and protective
devices for damage and correct fit.
Replace these if necessary.
•
Keep the ventilation slits and the mo-
tor housing of the device clean. Use
a damp cloth or brush to do this. The
device must neither be sprayed with
water nor be put into water.
•
Do not use any cleaning agents or sol-
vents. This could damage the device
irreparably. Chemical substances may
attack the plastic parts of the device.
•
Always keep the device clean. After
each use of the device, you must
- clean the blade
(with an oily cloth)
- oil the cutter bar
with an oil can/
spray.
•
The gears are main-
tenance free.
Sharpening the cutting teeth
Have the saw chain sharpened by a spe-
cialist, or proceed in accordance with the
operating manual for your saw chain shar-
pening device. Sharpening a saw chain
requires some practice. Replacing the
saw chain is preferable in case of doubt.
Changing the saw chain
Never attach a new saw chain onto
worn teeth, or onto a damaged or
worn blade bar.
1. Switch off the device and unplug the
mains plug.
2. Loosen the blade mounting screw
(
13) and remove the sprocket co-
ver (
12).
3. Remove the old saw chain (
19).
