Maintenance
(Fig. 4 - 6)
When performing the following tasks to
change the shear system, do not, under any
circumstances, switch on the device! Danger
of injury!
Put the included blade guard into the blade(s) and use
protective gloves to protect yourself from injury.
Push both lateral push buttons concurrently and remove
the shearing blades (Fig. 4).
Remove any dirt from the gear area (if necessary).
Please slightly grease the drive area (C) using commer-
cial universal grease as described in the Maintenance
section before putting the replacement shears in place
(Fig.6).
Lead the cutting blades with the rear holding toe into
the housing of the grass shears as shown in fig. 5 and
lock the click system in place by strongly pushing on the
blade base plate.
The position of the eccentric drive does not have to be
considered when changing the blades. When the device
is switched on, the gear eccentric unit automatically
engages into the appropriate relief in the shearing blade.
The device is now ready for operation.
Clean the blade from any crushed plants and dirt. The
blades should be detached at least once a season for
the removal of debris. Lubricate the (C) pinion and the
(D) back of the blade with a light oil. Do not lubricate the
motor and other parts. Should the blade become dull
after a long period of use, a spare part can be ordered.
Warning! The leading edges of the blades must be oiled
to ensure proper lubrication. If the leading edges are not
oiled, blade durability may be adversely affected.
If the cutting tools have become dull after long use
please replace them with original spare parts.
Clean the device using only a brush or cloth. Do never
