Maintenance
■ BLADES
• When refilling the tank or resting, it is often
a good idea to use the time to oil the
cutting blades.
• If a gap exists between the upper and lower
blades, follow the procedure below to
adjust them so that they fit more closely
together.
1. Loosen lock nut (A) as shown in the
diagram.
2. Tighten screw (B) fully, and then turn
one-third to one-half of a rotation
backward.
3. While holding onto the screw to keep it
in position, tighten the lock nut.
4. Check to make sure that the flat washer
(C) is loose enough so that it may be
turned by pressing on it with a finger.
NOTE
Screwing in the screw too tightly may make
it impossible for the blades to move.
Conversely, not screwing in the screw tightly
enough may make the blades of the trimmer
feel dull and cause leaves and branches to
become caught in the blades of the trimmer.
QUICK TIP
If the blades become so worn down that it is
no longer possible to eliminate the gap
between them, you should contact the
authorized RedMax servicing dealer from
which you purchased your RedMax®
trimmer to have the blades resharpened or
replaced.
