WarNiNG:
remove battery pack 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 8), 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 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 trimmer's operation
