4. Changing Blades
The blades can be changed without the need for additional tools. Refer to the diagrams in the full product manual for specific instructions on releasing and securing the blade unit. Ensure the device is turned off and the battery is removed (if applicable for blade change mechanism) before attempting to change blades.
Maintenance
1. Cleaning
After each use, clean the blades and housing. Remove any grass clippings, dirt, or debris using a brush or cloth. Do not use water directly on the electrical components. For stubborn residue on blades, use a mild cleaning agent and ensure blades are thoroughly dried.
2. Blade Care
Regularly inspect the blades for sharpness and damage. Dull or damaged blades can reduce cutting performance and strain the motor. If necessary, replace the blade unit with an original Gardena replacement part. Lightly oiling the blades after cleaning can help prevent rust and ensure smooth operation.
3. Storage
Store the Gardena ClassicCut Li Cordless Lawn Shears in a dry, secure location, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Ensure the battery is partially charged before long-term storage to maintain battery health. Keep out of reach of children.
