This article explains how to safely remove the blade cover (sheath) from your hedge trimmer.


⚠️ Safety Notice

Ensure the hedge trimmer is switched off and disconnected from the power supply before attempting to remove the blade cover.


Removing the Blade Cover

On some models, the blade cover / sheath may fit tightly over the blade for safety.

To remove it:

  • Hold the blade cover firmly.
  • Squeeze the sides of the sheath using your fingers and thumb.
  • This allows air to enter and helps release the cover from the teeth.
  • Carefully slide the cover off the blade.

Important Information

  • Do not force the blade cover off, as this may cause damage.
  • If you are unsure, please refer to your owner’s manual for model-specific instructions.
