Transporting
Before transporting – even for short
distances – always switch off the
machine, move the retaining latch to ƒ
and remove the battery. This avoids the
risk of the motor starting unintentionally.
Carry the unit horizontally and properly
balanced by the drive tube.
To reduce the risk of cut injuries, fit
transport guard on a metal cutting
attachment, even when carrying the tool
for short distances.
Transporting by vehicle: Properly secure
the power tool to prevent turnover and
damage.
Cleaning
Clean plastic surfaces with a cloth. Do
not use aggressive detergents. They
may damage the plastic.
Always clean dust and dirt off the power
tool – do not use any grease solvents for
this purpose.
Clean the cooling slots if necessary.
Keep the battery guides free from
foreign matter – clean as necessary.
Do not use a pressure washer to clean
the unit. The solid jet of water may
damage parts of the unit.
Do not spray the power tool with water.
Do not spray the cutting attachment or
deflector with water or immerse them in
water as this may damage the drive
motor and electronic control unit in the
motor housing.
