BLADE ATTACHMENT - SHRUBBER COMBO ONLY! (SSC1000) (FIG 9 AND 10) The SSC1000 has two interchangeable cutting heads, the Shrubber head and the Shear head. To remove a head assembly from the unit first push the two lock buttons IN as shown in fig. 9. At the same time carefully grasp the cutter head and rotate the cutter assembly down 1 and out of the unit 2 as shown in fig. 10. To install a cutting head , reverse the procedure and listen for the audible “click” that indicates the head has locked in place. TRIMMING INSTRUCTIONS (SHEAR, CAT#GS700 & SSC1000) (FIGURES 5, 6 AND 7) 1. Be sure that you have read carefully the safety rules. Use shear only for trimming grass and weeds. 2. For the best results you should trim only on a dry day, but water or moisture in the grass or on the ground does not create an electric shock hazard with this tool. Just be sure not to cut through any electric cords which may be in the area. 3. Keep your other hand well away from the blade, and maintain a stable working position so that you don.t slip. Don.t overreach. 4. Feed the blade into the grass at a rate that allows it to keep up cutting speed. Feed slower if the blade slows down. Watch out for foreign objects in the grass. TRIMMING INSTRUCTIONS (SHRUBBER, CAT#DS700 & SSC1000) (FIGURES 3 AND 4) • SAFETY – Be sure to carefully read and follow the safety rules shown in this manual. • WORKING POSITION – Maintain proper footing and balance and do not overreach. Wear safety goggles, non-skid footwear and gloves when trimming. Hold the appliance firmly and turn the appliance ON. Always hold the shrubber as shown in these illustrations. • TRIMMING NEW GROWTH (Figure 3) – A wide, sweeping motion, feeding the blade teeth through the twigs is most effective. A slight downward tilt of the blade, in the direction of motion gives the best cutting. One sweep will usually cut all twigs in the blade.s path. • TRIMMING HEAVIER GROWTH (Figure 4) – To cut older growth, with thicker twigs, use a little extra pressure as you feed the blade through the growth. This clears the blade faster and helps to feed the thicker twigs into the blade teeth. Slowly feed the shrubber through heavy branches using only a portion of the cutting edges. Should the shrubber stall on these heavy pieces, stop immediately and release the switch. CAUTION: Do not use the shrubber for cutting stems greater than 5/16" (7.9mm). Use the shrubber only for cutting normal shrubbery found around houses and buildings. MAINTENANCE It is easy to remove sap and dirt deposits when they are fresh and moist, but difficult after they become dry. Therefore, it is recommended that you wash the blades in water after each use. Hold the BLADES under a running faucet or in a pan of water and turn the appliance “ON” to help dislodge the deposits. Do not operate appliance with charger attached. (There is no electric shock hazard from the shear.s low-voltage power supply.) If the buildup of sap is difficult to remove, it may be necessary (with the motor “OFF”) to scrub the blades with soap and a stiff bristle brush. After cleaning, wipe the blades with a cloth and allow them to dry. Then, with a rag, apply a thin film of light engine oil to the top and bottom of the blades. Do not over oil. Turn the Appliance “ON” for a few seconds to work the lubricant between the blades. LUBRICATION No periodic relubrication of the bearings or mechanism is required. CLEANING PLASTIC PARTS USE ONLY WARM WATER AND MILD SOAP TO CLEAN THE PLASTIC PARTS. MANY HOUSEHOLD CLEANERS CONTAIN CHEMICALS WHICH COULD SERIOUSLY DAMAGE THE PLASTIC. NEVER USE GASOLINE, TURPENTINE, LACQUER OR PAINT THINNER, DRY CLEANING FLUIDS, OR SIMILAR PRODUCTS. WALL BRACKET - SHRUBBER COMBO ONLY (SSC1000) (FIGURE 12) A wall hanging bracket is included. To use the bracket, mount it securely to the wall and hang the components as shown in figure 12. The shear / shrubber blade is attached by first inserting the tab into the opening in the bracket and then allowing it to hang vertically. STORAGE The best storage place is one that is cool and dry. Store the tool away from direct sunlight, heating pipes and ducts, furnaces, etc. The best storage temperature is about +50°F (10°C). Do not store where temperatures go below +40°F (4°C) or above 120°F (49°C). Avoid storage in outside metal buildings where temperature can exceed 120°F (49°C) in summer. For off-season storage you should first recharge the appliance for 16 hours. Unplug the charger from the wall socket and then disconnect charger from the appliance. (Fig. 1) Clean and lightly oil the blades as described in this manual and store the appl...
