Maintenance; Service Information - Black & Decker TR116 Instruction Manual

MAINTENANCE

WARNING:
Remove extension cord from trimmer before
servicing, cleaning or removing material from the gardening appliance.
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 (figure I), 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, unplug the cord
and use a fine toothed 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, or handles broken or if you see any other
condition that may affect the trimmer's operation
contact your local
Black & Decker Service Center for repairs before putting it back into use.
Fertilizers and other garden chemicals contain agents which greatly
accelerate the corrosion of metals. Do not store the unit on or
adjacent to fertilizers or chemicals.
Use only mild soap and a damp cloth to clean the unit. Never let
any liquid get inside the unit; never immerse any part of the unit into
a liquid. Prevent the blades from rusting by applying a film of light
machine oil after cleaning.
ACCESSORIES
WARNING:
DO NOT use the Hedge Trimmer with any type of
accessory or attachment. Such usage might be hazardous.
