Blades
Hedge trimmer blades are very sharp, touching them may lead
to severe personal injury. Use long hex wrenches and sockets
with extensions when tightening blade screws and blade lock
nuts to keep hands at a safe distance from sharp blades.
Blades should only be removed and reinstalled by an authorized
servicing dealer, otherwise premature wear or internal damage may
occur.
