Adjustment of the distance between blades is
not necessary, as this is predetermined by the
manufacturer.
7.6.2 Sharpening
It is necessary to sharpen the blades when
the trimming performance decreases and the
branches tend to stick together.
For safety reasons, sharpening must
be done by an Authorised Service Centre
with suitable skills and equipment for the
job; without risking any damage to the blade
which would make it unsafe when used.
Always replace and never repair a blade
which has blunt cutting edges.
7.6.3 Replacement
The blade must never be repaired,
but must be replaced as soon as signs of
breaking, wearing, bending are noted or
the sharpening limit is exceeded. For safety
reasons replacements must be performed by
an Authorised Service Centre.
IMPORTANT Blades
