LUBRICATION : GEARCASE AND BLADES
The gearcase has a felt wick located at the blade opening. As the Hedge Trimmer is used, the
grease within gearcase becomes very soft. The
reciprocating blades constantly draw small amounts of
grease between the blade contact surfaces for additional
lubrication. If the gearcase is not lubricated at the
recommended intervals, a gearcase fail ure will occur due to
a lack of lubrication.
Gearcase failures due to improper maintenance are not
cov ered by Maruyama warranty.
The gearcase and blades should be lubricated after each
10 hours of use.
NOTE: If the Hedge Trimmer is used under severe conditions such as high ambient temperatures
(above 75°F) or for extended continuous periods of operation, the gearcase and blades must be
lubricated every 2 hours.
Lubricate the gearcase at the grease fitting with a good quality #2 lithium-base grease. Lubricate
the blades using a light (#10 wt.) oil.
GENERAL CLEANING AND TIGHTENING
The Hedge Trimmer will provide maximum performance for many, many hours if it is main tained
properly. Good maintenance includes regular checking of all fasteners for correct tightness, and
cleaning of the entire machine. Pitch and gum deposits should be removed from the cutting
blades daily. Adjustment of the cutting blade tension should be checked regularly. Refer to page
(15) for instructions to adjust cutting blades.
For long-term storage of the Hedge Trimmer, empty the
fuel tank into a suitable fuel storage container. Pump the
primer bulb on the carburetor until all fuel is discharged
through the clear fuel return hose. Run the engine to
remove any fuel that may remain in the carburetor.
Perform all regular maintenance procedures and any
needed repairs. Remove the spark plug and squirt a very
small amount of oil into the cylinder. Pull the starter cord
once.
CAUTION: Oil may squirt out of the spark plug opening while pulling the starter cord. Protect
your eyes and keep your face away from the spark plug opening. Slowly pull the starter cord to
bring the piston to the top of the cylinder (TDC). Reinstall the spark plug. Liberally lubricated the
blades with a light (#10 wt.) oil Store the Hedge Trimmer in a dry place away from excessive
heat, sparks or open flame.
