TRANSPORTING AND STORING
Always place the scabbard on the blade before storing
or transporting the hedge trimmer. Use caution to avoid
the sharp teeth of the blade.
Clean the hedge trimmer thoroughly before storing. Store
the hedge trimmer indoors, in a dry place that is inacces-
sible to children. Keep away from corrosive agents such
as garden chemicals and de-icing salts.
LUBRICATING THE BLADE
See Figure 7.
WARNING:
Always allow the blades of the hedge trimmer to come
to a stop and remove the battery pack before lubricating.
Failure to do so could result in accidental starting causing
possible serious personal injury.
For easier operation and longer blade life, lubricate the hedge
trimmer blade before and after each use.

machine oil along the edge of the top blade.

time, it is advisable to oil the blade periodically.
Stop the hedge trimmer.
Remove the battery pack.
Lubricate the hedge trimmer as described above.
Reinstall the battery pack and resume use.
SHARPENING THE BLADE
See Figure 8.
Allow the blades of the hedge trimmer to come to a stop
in the position shown. This will allow clearance for the
file between the cutter teeth and the guard teeth.
Remove the battery pack from the hedge trimmer.
Clamp the blade assembly in a vise and file the exposed
cutting surface of each blade tooth with an 8 in. smooth
round file, 1/4 in. or 7/32 in. in diameter. Be sure to retain
the original angle of the tooth when filing.
Remove the hedge trimmer from the vise, replace the
battery pack, and restart the hedge trimmer. Allow the
blades of the hedge trimmer to come to a stop so that
the unsharpened edges on the other side of the cutter
blade teeth are exposed.
Remove battery pack from hedge trimmer and repeat the
