CAUTION
:
Dirt and corrosion cause excessive blade friction and shorten the operating time per
battery charge.
If the blades become dull or slightly
damaged by contact with foreign matter,
they can usually be restored to their
original performance by sharpening with
a
file.
Removing
or
installing the blades
Seriously damaged blades or blades that
have been sharpened numerous times
should be replaced. First, disconnect the
battery from the tool. Loosen the four
screws, then remove the blades.
