6.3.5. SHARPENING THE BLADE
This operation is essential because it determines the quality of the cut of the tool, guarantees the longevity of the
blades and mechanical parts and preserves the autonomy of the battery.
The frequency of blade sharpening depends on:
• the wood being cut (hardness and diameter),
• the rate of pruning,
• the sharpening tool. A sharpening stone is supplied with your tool.
1. Open the tool blade fully.
See 5.4. Blade openings, page 23.
2. Turn the battery off.
See the operating instructions for the battery.
3. Disconnect the tool from the battery.
See 4.8. Disconnecting the tool from the ULIB 150P
and 250 batteries, page 18.
4. Pose the sharpening stone (1) onto the blade on the
right-hand side of the tool.
Important
Incline the stone about 30° to match the edge
of the blade perfectly.
5. Refresh only the 1st cutting angle (2) from the in-
side to the outside until the burr is removed from the
blade edge.
6. Turn the tool over.
7. Deburr the back of the blade (2) once, posing the
sharpening stone flat from the inside out.
Important
It is imperative to remove the burr from the edge
of the blade and to carry out the first refreshment
within the first 15 minutes of use, then every 1 or 2
days maximum.
8. Check the tightness of the blade.
See 6.3.6. Adjusting the tightness of the blade, page 38.
