MAINTENANCE CLEANING THE HEDGE TRIMMER  Slide the blade cover over the blade.  Remove the battery pack.  Clean dirt and debris from the body of the hedge trimmer, using a damp cloth with a mild detergent. NOTE: Do not use any strong detergents on the plastic housing or the handle. They can be damaged by certain aromatic oils such as pine and lemon, and by solvents such as kerosene.  Moisture can cause a shock hazard. Wipe off any moisture with a soft dry cloth.  Use a small brush or the air discharge of a small vacuum cleaner brush to clear dust or debris from the air vents on the motor housing. STORING THE HEDGE TRIMMER See Figure 11.  Clean the hedge trimmer thoroughly before storing. Store the hedge trimmer in a dry, well-ventilated place that is inaccessible to children. Keep away from corrosive agents such as garden chemicals and de-icing salts.  Always place the blade cover on the cutting blades before storing. BLADE COVER Fig. 11 14
