Adjustment of the distance between
blades is not necessary, as this is
predetermined by the manufacturer.
8.1.2 Sharpening
It is necessary to sharpen the blades when
the trimming performance decreases and
the branches tend to stick together.
DANGER
For safety reasons, sharpening should be
performed by an Authorised Service Centre
with suitable skills and equipment for the
job, without risking any damage to the blade
which would make it unsafe when used.
ATTENTION
Always replace and never repair a blade
which has blunt cutting edges.
8.1.3 Replacement
ATTENTION
The blade must never be repaired, but must
be replaced as soon as signs of breaking are
noted or the sharpening limit is exceeded.
For safety reasons replacements should be
performed by an Authorised Service Centre.
Blades displaying the code indicated
on the Technical Data table should
be used on this machine.
Given product evolution, the blades listed
