Hints for Optimum Use (Figs. G–J)
Trimming Grass (Fig. G, H )
CAUTION: Blades coast after turn off.
•
In order to achieve optimum cutting results, only cut
dry grass.
•
Hold the tool as shown in Fig. G. Keep your other hand
well away from the blade. Maintain a stable working
position so that you do not slip. Do not overreach.
•
When cutting long grass, work in stages from the top. Take
small cuts.
•
Keep the tool away from hard objects and delicate plants.
•
If the tool starts running slowly, reduce the load.
•
To make a closer cut, slightly tilt the tool.
Trimming Hedges (Fig. I, J)
CAUTION: Blades coast after turn off.
•
Slightly tilt the tool (up to 15° relative to the line of cut) so
that the blade tips point slightly towards the hedge. This
will cause the blades to cut more effectively.
•
Start by trimming the top of the hedge.
•
Hold the tool at the desired angle and move it steadily
along the line of cut. The double-sided blade allows you
to cut in either direction.
•
In order to obtain a very straight cut, stretch a piece of
string along the length of the hedge at the desired height.
Use the string as a guide line, cutting just above it.
•
In order to obtain flat sides, cut upwards with the growth.
Younger stems move outwards when the blade cuts
downwards, causing shallow patches in the hedge.
•
Take care to avoid any foreign objects. Especially avoid
hard objects such as metal wire and railings, as these
could damage the blades.
•
Regularly oil the blades.
MAINTENANCE
WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal
injury, turn unit off and remove the battery pack
before making any adjustments or removing/
installing attachments or accessories. An
accidental start‑up can cause injury.
Blade Maintenance (Fig. K)
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. K), 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
2
and squeeze
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)
WARNING: ALWAYS use safety glasses. Everyday
eyeglasses are NOT safety glasses.
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.
Cleaning
WARNING: Blow dirt and dust out of all air vents with
clean, dry air at least once a week. To minimize the risk
of eye injury, always wear ANSI Z87.1 approved eye
protection when performing this procedure.
WARNING: Never use solvents or other harsh
chemicals for cleaning the non‑metallic parts of the
tool. These chemicals may weaken the plastic materials
used in these parts. Use a cloth dampened only with
water and mild soap. Never let any liquid get inside the
tool; never immerse any part of the tool into a liquid.

offered by BLACK+DECKER, have not been tested with
