Lubrication (Fig. A)
Blades
1. After use, carefully clean the blade 1 with a resin solvent.
2. After cleaning, apply a light film of lubrication to the
exposed blade.
3. Turn the trimmer vertical with the blades toward the
ground and run the trimmer for a few seconds to fully
disperse the lubrication.
Maintaining Blade (Fig. J, K)
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,
stones, glass, or other hard objects as shown in Fig. J 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
contact your local
D
e
WALT authorised service centre 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. Prevent
the blades from rusting by applying a film of light machine
oil after cleaning.
