buildup. Wipe away any carbon buildup on the muffler exhaust vent and cylinder
exhaust port at the same time.
HEDGE TRIMMER:
BLADE:
• 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 onehalf 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
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 dealer from which you purchased your trimmer to
have the blades resharpened or replaced.
