Maintenance/Cleaning; Storage; Waste Disposal/Environmental Protection - Parkside PTHSA 20-Li A2 Translation Of The Original Instructions

• Do not be tempted to make unconsid-
ered cuts. Doing so may endanger
both yourself and others.
• Children must be supervised to ensure
that they do not play with the equipment.
• Long use of the equipment can result in
vibration-related circulatory disorders
in the hands. However, the length of
use can be extended by using suitable
gloves or taking regular breaks. Note
that a personal tendency for poor cir-
culation, low outdoor temperatures, or
high gripping forces during work will
reduce the length of use.

Maintenance/Cleaning

Repair and servicing work not
described in this manual should
always be carried by our Service
Centre. Use only original parts.
Switch off the device and remove
the battery before carrying out any
work on the equipment.
Wear gloves while handling the
blades.
Carry out the following maintenance and
cleaning work regularly. This will guaran-
tee a long and reliable service life.
• Before each use, check the hedge trim-
mer for obvious defects such as loose,
worn or damaged parts. Check the se-
cure seating of the bolts in the cutter bar.
• Do not use the unit if the blades are
blunt or worn. This will overstress the
motor and gearbox of the machine.
• Check coverings and safety devices
for damage and correct seating. Re-
place these where necessary.
• Keep the ventilation slots and motor
housing of the device clean. Use a
damp cloth or a brush to do this. Do
not wash down the equipment with
water, or submerge it in water.
• Do not use any cleaning agents or sol-
vents. These could cause irreparable
damage to the equipment. Chemical
substances can attack the plastic parts
of the equipment.
• Clean the cutter bar
carefully after each
use. Wipe it off with
an oily cloth or spray
it with a metal pro-
tective spray.
