Using your Weed Basher*
THE SAFETY WARNINGS AT THE FRONT OF THIS MANUAL
SHOULD BE OBSERVED FOR ALL ATTACHMENTS.
The Weed basher is supplied with 2 brushes. Choose your brush type carefully before starting
as damage may be caused to certain materials. If in doubt always use the nylon abrasive
lament brush as this is less abrasive than the steel brush.
Before using the Weed basher test a small area to check suitability. Older stone or reconstituted
stone / paving may be damaged with excessive abrasion.
1 Abrasive lament nylon: block paving, soft stone such as sandstone, stone with evidence
of shaling, areas where pointing is breaking down, re-constituted concrete paving, patterned
concrete paving, tarmac
2 Zinc coated steel: compressed concrete paving (slabs), block paving (test), slate, granite, travertine.
Hold the trimmer with both hands. Stand in a secure and stable position.
When cleaning move steadily and slowly applying light pressure. Do not apply excessive
pressure.
Always take care to avoid cleaning close to objects that could become entangled into the brush
such as wire, rope etc.
WARNING: ALWAYS WEAR EYE PROTECTION WHEN USING THE WEED BASHER.
Avoid operating while people and animals are nearby as risk of high speed projectiles.
WARNING: the rotary brushes will continue to move after the motor is switched off.
WARNING: When transporting or storing the trimmer always remove the Weed basher. When
not in use remove the Weed basher attachment from the trimmer.
Fitting and Replacing Brushes
Wear gloves when handling or cleaning the rotary brushes.
Two spanners will be required to replace the brush.
(10/13mm not included)
Use the 10.0mm spanner to hold the shaft which
attaches the brush to the main housing.
Place the 13.0mm spanner onto the nut which is visible
on the outer surface of the brush.
Holding the 10.0mm spanner, rotate the nut anti
clockwise. This will loosen the nut. Remove the nut and
store in a safe place.
The brush can now be removed. Fitting the brush is the
reversal of above.
*Only included with some models. All attachment tools are available to purchase
separately from www.gtechonline.co.uk or 01905 345891.
