Sharpening the Line Cutting Blade

It is recommended that an Oregon® Service
Dealer sharpen the line cutting blade, but it can
also be sharpened by the operator
Line cutting blade sharpening requires a flat
file
After collecting the file, wear gloves and eye
protection and remove the battery
• Lay the trimmer on its side with the line
cutting blade on top and face the bottom of
the trimmer head (Fig 27)
• Place the file against the cutting edge of the
line cutting blade (1)
• Push the file down and to the right, removing
material from the cutting edge (2)
FIG. 27
• Repeat until the line cutting blade is sharp
• Do not over sharpen

Correcting Grass Bind

CAUTION: A battery operated tool with
the battery pack inserted is always on and
can start accidentally. Always remove the
battery before correcting grass bind to avoid
accidental activation of the trimmer head.
Trimmer/Edger Model ST275-GSL
Maintenance and Cleaning
(2)
(1)
Certain types and lengths of grass can
sometimes be caught between the trimmer
head and the spindle When this happens, the
grass quickly winds around the shaft clogging
the space between the shaft and the trimmer
head and slowing or stopping the trimmer head
rotation This condition is called grass bind The
trimmer/edger is equipped with a grass wrap
protector shroud between the trimmer head
and the spindle to help minimise grass bind, but
the condition can still occasionally occur
To correct grass bind:
• Remove the battery
• Remove the trimmer head
• Clean all grass or weeds from the spindle If
necessary, cut the grass or weeds free
• Once the spindle is cleared, replace the
trimmer head
