(Original instructions)
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, 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. With the battery removed, 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. Pre-
vent the blades from rusting by applying a film of light machine
oil after cleaning.
