The blade must be re-sharpened if cutting performance and behavior begin to deteriorate (i.e. if blades frequently snag on branches).
- Stop the motor and disconnect the unit from the power supply. Clamp the blade in a vise.
- File the exposed cutting surface of each blade tooth with a smooth round file. Be sure to retain the original angle of the tooth when filing.
- Remove the blade from the vise, and power on the motor until the unsharpened edges of the remaining blade teeth are exposed.
- Disconnect the hedge trimmer from the power supply and repeat the sharpening procedure as necessary.
