#1 Cleaning your HLA 66

When you have finished using the hedge trimmer, remove the battery and wipe clean with a soft, damp cloth. We also suggest spraying a little resin solvent onto the blades to remove sap or resin, protect them from corrosion and stop them getting stuck together.

#2 Looking after your battery

Don't use a damp or wet battery in your HLA 66 and avoid using them in extreme temperatures (very hot or very cold).

#3 Storing your HLA 66

Store your HLA 66 in a clean and dry area and keep out of the reach of children at all times.
