edges, raise it slightly and then pull it downwards
and remove.
Rotating battery pack

The rear section of the machine can be rotated 270°
in three stages, thus allowing the machine's shape
to be adapted to the working conditions. Only
operate the machine when it is in an engaged posi-
tion.

If performance diminishes, recharge the battery
pack.
The ideal storage temperature is between 10°C and
30°C.

charge level.
- If one LED is flashing, the battery pack is almost
flat and must be recharged.
