Lubricate the Blades
For easier operation and longer blade life, lubricate the hedge
trimmer blade before and after each use.
1. Stop the motor and disconnect the unit from the power
supply.
2. Lay the hedge trimmer on a at surface. Apply lightweight
machine oil along the edge of the top blade (Fig. 5). If you
will be using the hedge trimmer for an extended period,
it is advisable to stop work intermittently in order to re-oil
the blade.
NOTE: Do not oil while the hedge trimmer is running.
Sharpening the Blades
The blade must be re-sharpened if cutting performance and
behavior begin to deteriorate (i.e. if blades frequently snag on
branches).
1. Stop the motor and disconnect the unit from the power
supply. Clamp the blade in a vise.
2. File the exposed cutting surface of each blade tooth with
a smooth round le. Be sure to retain the original angle of
the tooth when ling.
3. Remove the blade from the vise, and power on the motor
until the unsharpened edges of the remaining blade teeth
are exposed.
4. Disconnect the hedge trimmer from the power supply and
repeat the sharpening procedure as necessary.
mWARNING! Do not operate the hedge trimmer with dull
or damaged cutting blades. This may cause overload and will
give unsatisfactory cutting results.
Cleaning the Hedge Trimmer
1. Stop the motor and disconnect the unit from the power
supply.
2. Clean dirt and debris from the body of the hedge trimmer
using a damp cloth and mild detergent.
NOTE: Do not use any strong detergents on the plastic
housing or the handle. These parts can be damaged by certain
aromatic oils such as pine and lemon, and by solvents such as
kerosene.
Storage
1. Always place the blade cover on the blade before storing
or transporting the hedge trimmer. Use caution to avoid
the sharp teeth of the blade.
2. Clean the hedge trimmer thoroughly before storing.
Store the hedge trimmer indoors, in a dry place that is
inaccessible to children. Keep away from corrosive agents
such as garden chemicals and de-icing salts.
