MAINTENANCE
The cutting blades are made from high quality, hardened steel and with normal usage,
they will not require resharpening. However, if you accidentally hit a wire fence, stones,
glass or other hard objects, you may put a nick in the blade. 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 unit and use a 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 Center for repairs
before putting it back into use.
Fertilizers and other garden chemicals contain agents which greatly accelerate the
corrosion of metals. Do not store the tool on or adjacent to fertilizers or chemicals.
With the unit unplugged, use only mild soap and a damp cloth to clean the tool. Never
let any liquid get inside the tool; never immerse any part of the tool into a liquid.
Prevent the blades from rusting by applying a film of light machine oil after cleaning.
IMPORTANT: To assure product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs, maintenance and
adjustment should be performed by authorized service centers or other qualified service
organizations, always using identical replacement parts.
