6.5. CUTTING MEANS MAINTENANCE
Do not touch the cutting means until the ignition
key has been removed and the cutting means is
completely stationary. Be careful that the cutting
means can move, even if the key has been
removed (for battery-powered models).
All work on the cutting means (disassembly,
sharpening, balancing, repairing, reassembly
and/or replacing) are demanding jobs that require
special skills as well as special tools; For safety
reasons, these jobs are best carried out at a
Authorised Service Centre.
Always replace damaged, bent or worn cutting
means, together with their nuts and bolts, in
order to ensure they remain balanced.
IMPORTANT Always use original cutting means bearing the
code indicated in the "Technical Data" table.
