7. Cleaning and maintenance
HAZARD!
Always take the battery out of the equipment
before starting any cleaning work.
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 down with compressed air at
low pressure.
•
We recommend cleaning the equipment
immediately each time after use.
•
Clean the equipment regularly with a damp
cloth and some soft soap. Do not use
cleaning agents or solvents; these may
be aggressive to the plastic parts in the
equipment. Ensure that no water can get into
the interior of the equipment. The penetration
of water into an electric power tool increases
the risk of an electric shock.
7.2 Maintenance
Lubricating the branch shears blade (Fig. 17)
The branch shears blade must be lubricated
each time after it has been used and whenever
required. Use universal oil spray or the ball
pressure lubricator (see arrow) with a matching oil
spraying can.
Resharpening the moving cutting blade (Fig.
17)
If the cutting blade (Item 1) becomes blunt, you
can sharpen it yourself (Caution! Wear protective
gloves!) or have the blade replaced by the
customer service team.
•
With the blade fully open, switch off the tool
and remove the battery.
•
Sharpen the cleaned cutting blade with a
suitable grinding tool (e.g. a wet grinding
stone, wet grinding paper).
