Maintenance and care

Checking the blade

Checking the nylon line cutting head
3. Insert locking tool (G) into a hole located on the right side of
angle transmission while forcing retainer spring to the left
side.
4. Insert locking tool further into blade retainer fixing slot (A) to
fix output shaft.
Fix output shaft securely using locking tool in order to
prevent it form rotating when blade is mounted. Other-
wise, the blade fastening nut will not be tightened suffi-
ciently.
5. Tighten the nut (turn anticlockwise) using a socket wrench
(H). Never fasten while applying your weight. Otherwise the
thread of nut could be broken.
Use only blade designated for this model by the manufacturer.
When a crack is noticed on the blade, do not use it but replace
with a new one.
Ensure that the blade is correctly fitted in accordance with the
instructions.
When the cutting blade becomes dull due to wear reverse it for
further use.
When chip or bend occurs on the blade, vibration will increase.
Replace with new one.
When filing the blade file 3 cutting edges evenly using a flat file
as shown in the illustration. Otherwise, the balance will be lost
and vibration will increase.
1. Make sure each periphery of the 2 retaining pawls of housing
spreads almost fully up to the outer periphery of the respec-
tive cover window.
2. Check mount of cutting head on trimmer and tighten if it is
loose.
3. Check the cutter head for deflection or abnormal noise rotat-
ing it by hand. Deflection or abnormal noise can cause ab-
normal vibration to occur or mount to trimmer to loosen
during rotation which is dangerous.
