CHECKING THE SCREWS AND MOVING
PARTS
# Before each use, check that there are no loose
screws or parts and that the cutting device has
no cracks or is excessively worn.
# Replace any damaged parts before use.
BLADES
# If a reduction in cutting performance and
efficiency of the hedge trimmer is experienced,
the blades need to be sharpened. THIS
OPERATION SHOULD BE CARRIED OUT BY
A SPECIALISED SERVICE CENTRE.
Do not use the hedge trimmer if the
blades are worn or damaged in order
to avoid too much stress on the hedge
trimmer and a poor cutting performance.
CLEANING
# Periodically:
- clean the blades, check their conditions and
spray with lubricants and tree sap repellent.
- apply the blade guards (fig. 12).
