Always maintain the proper stance when using the brush blade (Fig. 25). Sharpening the Brush Blade WARNING Do not sharpen the brush blade. Sharpening the blade can cause the blade tip to break off while in use. This can result in severe personal injury to yourself or others. The brush blade is designed with a second set of teeth, which can be used by removing the blade, turning it upside down, and reinstalling it. If a crack is noticed, install a new blade from your authorized service dealer. Fig. 23 NOTE: Always keep the trimming line fully extended. Line release becomes more difficult as cutting line becomes shorter. Each time the head is bumped, about 25. 4 mm (1 in) of trimming line is released. A blade in the line guard will cut the line to the proper length if excess line is released. For best results, tap the head on bare ground or hard soil.
