Maintenance and storage
a. Always unplug the machine from the electric power
supply (i.e. remove from the power outlet) before
cleaning or performing maintenance.

manufacturer.
c. Inspect and maintain the machine regularly. The
machine must only be repaired by authorized personnel.
d. When the machine is not in use, store it in a place
away from the reach of children.
Warning! To avoid serious injury, turn off and unplug
the tool before performing any maintenance.
1. Keep the air intake slots clear (Fig. N) to prevent
overheating.
2. The cutting line can dry out over time. To keep
the string in optimum conditions, store the pre-coiled
replacement spools or the line in a sealed plastic bag
with a tablespoon of water.
3. Plastic parts can be cleaned using mild soap and a
damp cloth.

dull over time. We recommend periodical maintenance
of the blade's edge with a file.

PROTECTING THE ENVIRONMENT
Separate collection. This product must not be
disposed of with normal household waste.
Should you find one day that your
BLACK+DECKER product needs replacement, or
if it is of no further use to you, do not dispose of it
with household waste. Make this product available
for separate collection.
Separate collection of used products and packaging
allows materials to be recycled and used again.
Re-use of recycled materials helps prevent
environmental pollution and reduces the demand
for raw materials. Local regulations may provide for
separate collection of electrical products from the

retailer when you purchase a new product.
