tion. Replace as necessary.
• You can smoothen minor nudges in
the cutting teeth yourself using a knife
grinder to sharpen the cutting edges.
The trimmer will only cut well if the
teeth are sharp.

Machines do not belong with do-
mestic waste.
Do not dispose of batteries in house-
hold waste, fire (risk of explosion)
or water. Damaged batteries may
damage the environment and your
health if toxic fumes or liquids leak
out.
Return the unit to a recycling centre.
Dispose of batteries in discharged
condition. We recommend covering
the pole with adhesive tape to prevent
a short circuit. Do not open up the bat-
tery.
Dispose of batteries in accordance with
the local regulations. Take batteries to
an old battery collection point where
they will be recycled in an environ-
mentally friendly manner. For informa-
tion about this, ask your local waste
management company or our service
centre.
Throw the cut grass on the compost. Do
not throw it in the normal household
waste.
