Your BLACK+DECKER power tool has been designed to
operate over a long period of time with a minimum of
maintenance. Continuous satisfactory operation depends
upon proper tool care and regular cleaning.
Blade Maintenance (Fig. J)
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
(Fig. J), 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, remove the battery 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, handles broken or if you see any other
condition that may affect the tool's operation contact your
local authorized service center for repairs before putting it
back into use.
Blade Lubrication (Fig. A)
1. After use, remove the battery
2. Carefully apply a resin solvent to the exposed blades.
3. Insert the battery and turn the tool vertical with the
blades toward the ground and run the tool for a few
seconds to fully disperse the lubrication.
