ow inside these components.

electrical contacts by blowing with compressed air.
3. Use only a soft, clean and dry brush to clean the battery
pack and charger, keeping away from all electrical
contacts. Certain cleaning agents and solvents are harmful

of the reach of children. Keep the trimmer + edger in a dry
place where the temperature is not too hot or too cold.
• Do not store the grass trimmer + edger resting against the
