Maintenance And Storage - Energizer EZ20VCBC-UK User Manual

5. MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE

Warning! To prevent accidental starting that could cause serious personal injury; always
remove the battery pack from the product before adjusting, inspecting, or cleaning.
Never disassemble the tool or carry out any repairs. Always have the trimmer and charger
maintained or repaired by a competent person at an authorised service centre.
Warning! There is danger of moving hazardous parts. Let the tool completely stop and
remove battery before user maintenance.
a. CLEANING
After each use, remove the battery pack. Brush or blow dust and debris out of the air vent
using compressed air or a vacuum. Keep the air vents free of obstructions, sawdust, and
wood chips. Do not sprays, wash, or immerse the air vents in water.
Wipe off the housing and the plastic components using a moist, soft cloth. Do not use strong
solvents or detergents on the plastic housing or plastic components. Certain household
cleaners may cause damage, and may cause a shock hazard.
b. STORAGE
Clean the grass trimmer thoroughly before storing. Store the grass trimmer in a dry, well-
ventilated place that is inaccessible to children. Keep away from corrosive agents such as
garden chemicals and dicing salts.
Always place blade cover on cutting blades before storing.
Store and charge your batteries in a cool area. Temperatures above or below normal room
temperature will shorten battery pack life.
Never store batteries in a discharged condition. Wait for battery pack to cool and fully
charge immediately.
All batteries gradually lose their charge. The higher the temperature, the quicker they lose
their charge. If you store your unit for long periods of time without using it, recharge the
batteries every month or two. This practice will prolong battery pack life.
c. Repairs
All repairs and the replacement of accessories shall be done by our service agent.
6. DISPOSAL
Electrical products should not be discarded with household products. According to the
European Directive 2012/19/EU on waste electrical and electronic equipment and its
implementation into national law, electrical products used must be collected separately and
disposed of at collection points provided for this purpose. Talk with your local authorities or
dealer for advice on recycling.
