(Original instructions)
When sharpening the blade:
u
Make sure blade remains balanced.
u
Sharpen blade at the original cutting angle.
u
Sharpen cutting edges on both ends of blade, removing
equal amounts of material from both ends.
To sharpen blade in a vice (fig. V)
u
Be sure the blade has stopped and the mower is
unplugged before removing the blade.
u
Remove blade from mower. See instructions for removing
and installing blade.
u
Secure blade (17) in a vice (21).
u
Wear proper eye protection and gloves and be careful not
to cut yourself.
Carefully file the cutting edges of the blade with a fine
tooth file (22) or sharpening stone, maintaining the angle
of the original cutting edge. Check balance of blade. See
instructions for blade balancing.
u
Replace blade on mower and tighten securely.
Blade balancing (fig. W)
Check balance of the blade (17) by placing centre hole in
the blade over a nail or round shank screwdriver, clamped
horizontally in a vice. If either end of the blade rotates
downward, file along the sharp edge of that dropping end.
Blade is properly balanced when neither end drops.
Lubrication
No lubrication is necessary. Do not oil the wheels. They have
plastic bearing surfaces which require no lubrication.
Cleaning
Turn the mower off and let the blade come to a stop. Use only
mild soap and a damp cloth to clean the mower. Clean out any
clippings which may have accumulated on the underside of
the deck. After several uses, check all exposed fasteners for
tightness.
Preventing corrosion
Fertilizers and other garden chemicals contain agents which
greatly accelerate the corrosion of metals.
If you mow in areas where fertilizers or chemicals have been
used, the mower should be cleaned immediately afterward as
follows:
Turn the mower off and unplug mower. Wipe all exposed parts
with a damp cloth.
Maintenance
Your BLACK+DECKER corded/cordless appliance/tool has
been designed to operate over a long period of time with a
minimum of maintenance. Continuous satisfactory operation
depends upon proper tool/appliance care and regular
cleaning.
Warning!
Before performing any maintenance on corded/
cordless power tools:
u
Switch off and unplug the appliance/tool.
u
Or run the battery down completely if it is integral and then

not require any maintenance apart from regular cleaning.
u
Regularly clean the ventilation slots in your tool/appliance
and charger using a soft brush or dry cloth.
u

not use any abrasive or solvent-based cleaner.
u

from the underneath of the guard.
