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.
When is the best time to trim hedges?
•
As a general rule, hedges which lose their
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
Caution! Risk of injury!
To remove the blade, press the release mecha-
nism (Fig. 1/Item 5) and take out the blade as
shown in Fig. 5.
Once you have removed the blade you will be
able to see the toothed wheels of the gear unit
(Fig. 6). 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. 1/Item 5)!
When you fi t the hedge cutter blade
check the position of the pin for the eccentric con-
nector (Fig. 6/Item 1). Take the hedge cutter blade
and slide the eccentric mount (Fig. 7/Item 1) into
position so that the pin for the eccentric connector
and the eccentric mount fi t together precisely
when assembled. Slot the hedge cutter blade
onto the guide pins (Fig. 6/Item 2).
When you fi t the grass cutter blade
check the position of the pin for the eccentric
connector (Fig. 6/Item 1) again. Shift the eccentric
mount (Fig. 8/Item 1) on the grass cutter blade to
the left or the right to fi nd the position at which the
pin for the eccentric connector (Fig. 6/Item 1) and
the eccentric mount (Fig. 8/Item 1) match up.

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
important to remove grass remnants and dirt
from between the upper and lower blade.
Important!
Never clean the tool under running water
- and particularly never with high pressure -
because of the potential danger to persons
and property. Keep your cordless grass
cutter and hedge trimmer in a dry and frost-
proof place. Choose a place that children are
unable to enter.
7.2 Maintenance
•
To achieve good results you should keep the
blades sharp at all times. In particular we re-
commend that you immediately level off any
jags or ridges caused by stones or the like.
The tool should be thoroughly cleaned both
before and after use.
•
There are no parts inside the equipment
which require additional maintenance.
