5. Before starting
5.1 Charging the battery pack (Fig. 6)
Check that your mains voltage is the same as
that marked on the rating plate of the battery
charger.
As shown in Figure 6, insert the charging plug
into the socket provided on the unit.
Plug the battery charger into the socket outlet.
An empty battery pack requires a maximum
charging period of 6 hours. The rechargeable
battery in the equipment can become a little
warm during the charging process. This is
normal.
If the rechargeable battery fails to charge, check
whether there is voltage at the socket outlet.
Timely recharging of the battery pack will help it
serve you well for a long time. Recharging is always
necessary when you notice a drop in the toolʼs
performance.
Never allow the battery pack to become fully
discharged. This will cause it to develop a defect.
5.2 Fitting the long handle
Using the plug-in long handle (Figure 1 / Item 5) you
can push the cordless grass cutter on wheels over
the lawn.
Slide the one tube into the other until they latch
together at the locking point (Figure 3). Remove the
plastic cover (Figure 4 / Item 2). Press down the
release lever on the handlebar (Figure 4 / Item 1)
and plug in the long handle. The long handle will
engage in place automatically when you let go of the
release lever. Connect the power supply of the long
handle to the tool (Figure 5). To remove the long
handle, press down the release lever (Figure 4 / Item
1), pull out the long handle and disconnect the power
supply.
Important!
It is prohibited to remove or bridge any of the
switching elements installed on the tool by the
manufacturer (e.g. by securing a button to the
handle) as this would prevent the tool from
switching off automatically and result in high risk
of injury.
Under no circumstances are you to use the shrub
cutter with the telescopic long handle fitted.

6. Operation
The area to be cut must first be cleared of stones
and other solid objects. The safety lock-off (Fig.
1/Item 3) prevents the tool being started
unintentionally. Activate the safety lock-off (Figure 1 /
Item 3) by pushing it forward and pressing the
ON/OFF switch (Figure 1 Item 4) at the same time.
To switch off the tool, let go of the ON/OFF switch
(Figure 1 / Item 4).
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.
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. Ensure 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.
