through the twigs, is most effective. A slight downward tilt of

the blade in the direction of motion gives the bestcutting.

To obtain exceptionally level hedges a piece of string can be

stretched along the length of the hedge as aguide.

MAINTENANCE

Your STANLEYFATMAX power tool has been designed

to operate over a long period of time with a minimum of

maintenance. Continuous satisfactory operation depends upon

proper tool care and regularcleaning.



WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal

injury, turn tool off and disconnect battery pack

before making any adjustments or removing/

installing attachments or accessories. An accidental

start-up can causeinjury.

The charger and battery pack are notserviceable.

Lubrication

1. After use, carefully clean the blades with a resinsolvent.

2. After cleaning, apply a light film of lubrication to the

exposedblade.

3. Turn the trimmer vertical with the blades toward the ground

and run the trimmer for a few seconds to fully disperse

thelubrication.

4. Slide the sheath

7

over the blade as shown in figureK.

Blade Maintenance (Fig.I)

The cutting blades are made from high quality, hardened steel

and with normal usage, they will not require resharpening.

However, if you accidentally hit a wire fence (Fig.J), stones, glass,

or other hard objects, you may put a nick in the blade. There

is no need to remove this nick as long as it does not interfere

with the movement of the blade. If it does interfere, remove

the battery and use a fine toothed file or sharpening stone to

remove the nick. If you drop the trimmer, carefully inspect it for

damage. If the blade is bent, housing cracked, handles broken

or if you see any other condition that may affect the trimmer’s

operation contact your local authorized service center for repairs

before putting it back intouse.
