BLADE LUBRICATION
WARNING:
mer is disconnected from the power supply.
Failure to do so can result in accidental starting,
causing serious personal injury.
For easier operation and longer blade life, lubricate the
garden trimmer blade before and after each use. Apply
light machine oil along the edge of the top strap. (Fig. 6)
Your trimmer should be stopped, disconnected and oiled
occasionally during use.
1. The cutting blades are made from high quality, hard-
ened steel and with normal usage, they will not require
resharpening. However, if you accidentally hit a wire
fence, stones, glass or other hard objects, you may put
a nick in the blade. There is no need to remove this nick
as long as it does not interfere with the movement of
the blade. If it does interfere, unplug unit and use a fine
toothed file or sharpening stone to remove the nick.
2. If you drop the trimmer, carefully inspect it for damage.
If the blade is bent, housing cracked, or handles broken
or if you see any other condition that may affect the
trimmer's operation contact a professional service cen-
ter for repairs before putting it back into use.
