WARNING
Hedge clipper blades are very sharp. Touching them may lead to
severe personal injury. Use a socket and extension when adjust-
ing blade bolts or blade locknuts in order to keep hands at a safe
distance from sharp blades.
IMPORTANT
Blades should only be removed and reinstalled by an Authorized
ECHO Servicing Dealer, otherwise premature wear or internal
damage may occur.
1. Tighten blade bolts until snug, then loosen blade bolts 1/2 turn.
2. Hold blade bolts from turning using 10 mm socket, and tighten
blade lock nuts with other 10 mm socket.

Locking ability of Hedge Clipper blade lock nuts will diminish
each time they are removed. Replace if turning resistance is not felt
when installing locknuts.
