• When not in use, the Hedge Trimmer should be stored in a dry, frost free location
not within the reach of children.
• Keep ventilation slots of the Trimmer clean at all times and prevent any
foreign matter from entering.
• If the enclosure of the Trimmer requires cleaning do not use solvents
but a moist cloth only.
• There are no user serviceable parts in the Trimmer; if a fault is suspected or the
supply cord requires replacement, return the Trimmer to a power tool repairer.
• The blade rail should be cleaned and treated with light machine oil or spray
lubricant (such as WD40, CRC 5.56 or RP7) after each use. When a job lasts for a
longer period of time it is recommended that the blade rail also be treated with
spray lubricant at regular intervals during operation.
• When the carbon brushes wear out the tool will spark and/or stop. The brushes are
a wearing component of the tool and should be replaced prior to the carbon
wearing out fully. Brushes will wear out after many uses but before they do take
the tool to an electrician or a power tool repairer for quick and low cost
replacement. Always replace both brushes at the same time.

will void the warranty. The blades are not covered by warranty – any damage to or
