∙ Caution: Keep any packaging materials
well away from children – such materials
are a potential source of danger, e.g. of
suffocation.
∙ No responsibility will be accepted if
damage results from improper use, or if
these instructions are not complied with.
Applications
The lint shaver is designed for the removal
of lint, little balls of fuzz, hair or dust from
the surface of textile fabric or furniture
upholstery.
Safety switch
The appliance is equipped with a safety
switch. Any attempt to remove the shaving
head will cause the appliance to switch off
automatically in order to prevent personal
injury or damage to the appliance.
Batteries
∙ Two type-C (baby size) batteries are
required for operation; the use of
alkaline batteries is preferable, as they
are longer-lasting than the standard
carbon-zinc batteries.
∙ The batteries are inserted as follows:
∙ Slide the battery compartment cover in
the direction indicated by the arrow and
take it off.
∙ Insert the batteries according to
the schematic diagram inside the
compartment, ensuring correct polarity
(+/-).
∙ Replace the compartment cover and
slide it back until it is heard locking into
10
place.
∙ When the lint chamber is empty, a
significant decrease in operating speed
is a clear indication that the batteries
are exhausted, and that they should be
replaced.
∙ Never dispose of old batteries in your
domestic garbage. Old batteries must
be disposed of through local 'special
garbage collection points'.
Operation
∙ Place the item to be treated on a level
surface.
∙ Remove the protective cover from the
head. For coarser wool surfaces, the
use of the spacer ring is recommended.
∙ Use the On-/Off switch to turn the
appliance on. The shaving blades inside
the shaving head start rotating. When
they come into contact with the surface
of the area to be treated, a distinct noise
can be heard. This is normal.
∙ Guide the shaving head gently and
without exerting any pressure over the
fabric to be treated. Lint and fuzz balls
are removed and collected in the lint
chamber.
∙ The chamber should always be emptied
in good time. If the motor seems to lose
power, or if it stops working completely,
the lint chamber may be over-full.
∙ Turn the appliance off after use.
