Maintenance (continued)

Cutter blade adjustment

WARNING!

The cutter blades are very sharp! Always wear gloves when working around the cutter assembly.

Cutting performance of your machine depends a great deal on proper cut- ter blade adjustment. Properly adjusted blades will oscillate freely yet help pre- vent binding of cut material between blades. Adjust blades as follows:

1.Loosen all blade locknuts at least one full turn.

2.Tighten each blade shoulder bolt firmly, and then loosen the shoulder bolts 1/4 to 1/2 turn.

3.Working from the gearcase end, lock each bolt in place by firmly tighten- ing its locknut while preventing the shoulder bolt from turning.

CAUTION!

Operating the trimmer with worn or improperly adjusted cutters will reduce cutter performance and may also damage your machine. Never operate the machine with damaged or worn cutters.

4.When shoulder bolt adjustment is correct, there should be a gap of 0.25–0.50 mm between the cutter blades and the flat washers, and the flat washer beneath each bolt head should turn freely.
