ADJUSTMENT & LOCK
The components within the Hedge Trimmer
gearbox have to work very hard and as a result
MUST remain well lubricated at all times. Before or
after each use.
There are two grease nipples on the Hedge
Trimmer gearbox housing. Be sure to add grease
to both.
Connect a compatible grease gun to the gearbox
assembly's grease nipples.
Pump gearbox grease into the grease nipples.
Use a general purpose gearbox grease.
