MAINTENANCE
Your power tool has been designed to operate over a long
period of time with a minimum of maintenance. Continuous
satisfactory operation depends upon proper tool care and
regular cleaning.
WARNING:To reduce the risk of serious personal
injury, turn tool off and disconnect battery pack
before making any adjustments or removing/
installing attachments or accessories. An accidental
start-up can cause injury.
The charger and battery pack are not serviceable.
Lubrication
Your power tool requires no additional lubrication.
Lubrication (Fig. A)
Blades
1. After use, carefully clean the blade
2. After cleaning, apply a light film of lubrication to the
exposed blade.
3. Turn the trimmer vertical with the blades toward the ground
and run the trimmer for a few seconds to fully disperse
the lubrication.
Maintaining Blade (Fig. M)
The cutting blades are made from high quality, hardened steel
and with normal usage, they will not require resharpening.
However, if you accidentally hit a wire fence, stones, glass, or
other hard objects as shown in Fig. M 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,
remove the battery and use a fine toothed file or sharpening
stone to remove the nick. If you drop the trimmer, carefully
inspect it for damage. If the blade is bent, housing cracked,
handles broken or if you see any other condition that may affect
the trimmer's operation contact your local D
service centre for repairs before putting it back into use.

never immerse any part of the unit into a liquid. Prevent the
blades from rusting by applying a film of light machine oil
after cleaning.

sharpened by using a fine tooth file
1. Run the trimmer until cutting blades
2. Be sure the lock-off lever is engaged, the blade has stopped,
and the battery has been removed before sharpening blade.
3. Wear proper eye protection and gloves, and be careful not
to cut yourself.
4. Carefully file the cutting edges of the blade with a fine tooth
file. File toward the cutting edge
angle (38 degrees from horizontal). File only the straight
cutting edges of the blades. Do not file where the cutting
edge curves into the centre of the blade.
5. Flip the trimmer over to sharpen the bottom blade.
6. Repeat steps to sharpen the opposite side of each blade.
