Inspection and maintenance

WARNING:
• Before inspecting or maintaining the equipment, switch of the
motor and remove the spark plug cap or battery cartridge.
Otherwise the cutting tool or other parts may move and result in
serious injury.
• When inspecting or maintaining the equipment, always put it
down. Assembling or adjusting the equipment in an upright

Resharpening the cutting tool

WARNING:
Do not resharpen cutting blades by yourself. Manual resharpening
unbalances a cutting blade and it can cause vibrations and damage
to the equipment.
Ask Makita authorized service center to resharpen and rebalance
blunt cutter blades.
Replacing the nylon cord
WARNING:
For the bump and feed type nylon cutting head, make sure that
the cover of the nylon cutting head is secured to the housing
properly as described below. Failure to properly secure the cover
may cause the nylon cutting head to fly apart resulting in serious
personal injury.
The way to replace the nylon cord varies depending on the cutting
tool type. Replace the nylon cord if the cord is not fed any more.
