Chip discharge opening cleaning
Clean the chip discharge opening regularly.

Sharpening the blades

Always keep your blades sharp for the best perfor-
mance possible. Use the sharpening holder to remove
nicks and produce a fine edge.

First, loosen the two wing nuts on the holder and insert
the blades (A) and (B), so that they contact the sides
