MAINTENANCE

Blade Maintenance

Clean (don’t use grease solvent) any resin and plant residue from

the blades before and after using the machine.

WITH NEW BLADES: after the first working hour you need to

inspect the blades and if necessary adjust the gap between them

for a correct play.

ADJUSTMENTS (Fig.37): loosen nut (1): slightly tighten screw

(2), then unscrew it 1/4 of a turn. Tighten nut (1). Occasionally

disassemble and clean screw and nut (1 and 2).

SHARPENING (Fig.38): always keep the file or sharpener at an

angle of 45° to the blade, and:

• Always grind in the direction of the cutting edge;

• Files cut only in one direction; lift the file from the blade when

returning to start a new pass;

• Remove all burr from the edge of the blade with a slip stone;

• Remove as little material as possible;

• Before refitting the sharpened blades, remove filings and then

apply grease.

WARNING: Do not try to sharpen a damaged blade:

change it or take it to a Service Dealer.

• Check that the blade guard is not damaged or distorted.

Replace the blade guard if it is bent or damaged.

• Never repair damaged cutting attachments by welding, straigh-

tening or modifying the shape.
