Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up the trimmer, ensure the telescopic shaft is locked securely at your desired length before connecting to power. Always use an RCD-protected outdoor extension lead for safety. Before operating, inspect the blades for any debris or sticky sap; applying a light machine oil to the blades before and after use will ensure smooth reciprocating action and prevent rusting. Store the trimmer in a dry, covered area and ensure the power cord is neatly coiled to prevent damage. Always clear the work area of stones or wire, as these can dull the blade and damage the internal motor mechanism.
