MAINTENANCE |
|
WARNING: Remove extension cord from trimmer before | |
servicing, cleaning or removing material from the gardening appliance. | |
The cutting blades are made from high quality, hardened steel and | |
with normal usage, they will not require | I |
resharpening. However, if you accidentally hit a | |
wire fence (figure I), stones, glass orother hard | |
objects, you may put a nick in theblade. 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, unplug the cord and usea 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, or handles |
|
broken or if you see any other condition that may |
|
affect the trimmerʼs operation contact your local |
|
Black &Decker Service Centerfor repairs before putting itback into use. | |
Fertilizers and other garden chemicals contain agents which greatly | |
accelerate the corrosion of metals. Do not store the unit on or | |
adjacent to fertilizers or chemicals. |
|
Use only mild soap and a damp cloth to clean the unit. Never let any | |
liquid get inside the unit; neverimmerse any part of the unit into a | |
liquid. Prevent the blades from rusting by applying a film of light | |
machine oil after cleaning. |
