ADJUSTING THE CUTTING BLADES
Stop the engine when adjusting the cutting blades.
CAUTION-DO NOT TOUCH THE SHARPENED EDGES OF THE CUTTING BLADES.
THE CUTTING BLADES ARE EXTREMELY SHARP AND DANGEROUS AT ALL TIMES.
ALWAYS WEAR GLOVES TO HELP PROTECT YOUR HANDS AND FINGERS FROM
INJURY.
Before operating the Hedge Trimmer check the adjustment of the cutting blades. Blades that are too loose
may vibrate and will not provide a clean smooth cut.
CAUTION-BLADES THAT ARE TOO TIGHT CAN CAUSE OVERLOADING WHICH MAY
DAMAGE THE EQUIPMENT.
To adjust the cutting blades, refer to the illustration and locate
the screws. Loosen the nuts. Gently turn the screws in until
snug, then turn the screws back out a half to one turn. While
holding the screws in place, tighten the nuts. Liberally coat
the cutting blades with light oil. If the blade does not move,
loosen the screw another 1/2 turn. Stop the engine each time
you adjust the screws.
