end position. This is where the segment noticeably locks
in. During panning, the switch is locked off for safety
reasons and the device cannot be turned on.

9. Hints for your work with the tool

The shrub trimmer cuts ornamental shrubs and light
undergrowth or bushes. The device is also well-suited for
ornamental cuts as, for example, for the care of graves.
The grass shears allow for clean cuts of lawn edges or
hardly accessible lawn areas.
As the device is operated with one hand
please be careful not to move the other
hand near the running cutting tools.
Working with telescopic handle
Longer working with the grass shears can be greatly
facilitated by the use of the telescopic handle. For this
purpose, the grass shears are threaded into the intended
fixing points of the telescope handle (Fig. 10) and locked
in place (Fig. 11). Depending on the body size, the
telescopic handle can now be adjusted in the handle
height. For this purpose loosen the clamping nut in the
middle of the tube (Fig. 12a). Now it is possible to move
the tubes against each other until the desired length is
reached. The position is fixed by tightening the clamping
nut (Fig. 12b).
On the telescopic handle, the cutting height of the grass
shears can be adjusted. When delivered, the axle with
the wheels is in the middle position. To change the
height, the wheels are pulled apart slightly. As a result,
the fixation is released and the axle can be pulled back-
wards (Fig. 13). Depending on the desired cutting height,
the axle is now inserted and locked into one of the three
grooves (Fig. 14).
In order to avoid injuries when working on walls or
fences, the telescopic handle can be bent 10 ° to the
left or right. The joint noticeably locks in one of the three
positions and fixes itself (Fig. 15).

10. Maintenance

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 blades have become dull after long use
please replace them with original spare parts.
Clean the device using only a brush or cloth. Do never
wash down the device with water and do never dip the
device into water.
Apply protective spray to the blades after each use.
