Operations to be entrusted solely to authorised
manufacturer service personnel:
- blade replacement, sharpener grinding
wheel replacement, chain replacement;
- repairs of structural parts, repair and/or re-
placement of area below the base.

CAUTION: Risk of cutting!
Use cut and tear resistant gloves and
perform all operations with great care.
DO NOT BECOME DISTRACTED!

- stop rotation and verify in the backlight that a
slight burr has formed on the blade edge;
- set the flywheel back into rotation and simulta-
neously press the button for 2-3 seconds (4);

NOTE: Do not excessively force (more than
2-3 seconds) the deburring operation (4) to
prevent damaging spring-back of the blade
edge.
