with blade movement.
If a nick adversely effects the blade oscilla-

or grinding the blade may weaken the blade
steel properties.

concerns, contact DESA Technical Services at
1-800-626-2237.
After tool use, debris may have accumulated on
the blade. Remove any debris and wipe blade
with damp cloth. After the blade has dried, use
a rag to apply a thin fi lm of engine oil across
the blade surface. The tool does not require
