Specific steps are provided for detaching the trimmer driving bar, slit blade driving bar, battery, chassis block, tube holder, and linear motor assembly. Unsoldering lead wires from the module is also covered.
Caution in Assembly: Emphasizes replacing the waterproof seal and ensuring no foreign substances are present. It also provides guidance on soldering lead wires, inserting the module and chassis block without damage, and correctly positioning lead wires to avoid abnormal noise. Proper battery installation, ensuring the (+) terminal is set firmly and the (-) terminal is attached, is also highlighted. The manual stresses the importance of setting the linear motor assembly, attaching the tube holder, fitting the waterproof seal correctly, tightening screws, and properly inserting and locking the rear panel.
Parts List: Detailed exploded views and replacement parts lists are provided for both ES8113 and ES8116 models, including part numbers, descriptions, quantities, and remarks (e.g., screw sizes, plug types, battery type). This ensures that technicians can identify and order the correct replacement parts for repairs.
Safety Notices: The manual includes important safety notices, warning that the service information is for experienced repair technicians only due to potential dangers associated with servicing electrical products. It also highlights the use of special safety-critical components (marked with 'A' in diagrams) that must be replaced with manufacturer-specified parts to prevent hazards and advises against modifying the original design.
