Tool
The tool does not trim well.
The blade has become dull.
[Shrub shear]
The blade stopped because it was
used to cut a branch whose width
exceeded the blade’s cutting
capacity.
NOTE
Work that will repeatedly cause
the blade to stop will eventually
damage the motor.
Use a wire brush or other tool to
remove sap and rust and use a file
or whetstone to sharpen the blade.
If these efforts fail to make the
blade sharper, the blade has
reached the end of its service life.
Replace the blade with a new one.
Some garden trees have wood that
is very hard and may be beyond
the capacity of the tool even if it is
of a width that is within normal
capacity. Use a pair of pruning
shear to remove thick branches
before starting work.
An oblique cut may also exceed
the capacity of the tool since the
length of the cut increases. Be sure
to trim thick branches at right
angles.

WARNING
䡬
The vibration emission value during actual use of the
power tool can differ from the declared value
depending on the ways in which the tool is used.
䡬
To identify the safety measures to protect the operator
that are based on an estimation of exposure in the
actual conditions of use (taking account of all parts of
the operating cycle such as the times when the tool is
switched off and when it is running idle in addition to
the trigger time).
