1. Cleaning

 

The Trimmer Blade and Knifes: EMC 1, EMC 6MTL, EMC6/4MT, EMC 10T, EMC 10/4T, ADV 18

Occasionally, thread dust and lint will build up in the trimmer and areas. It is a good idea to check these areas at least once a week to prevent any accumulation of debris from affecting the performance of the trimmer . A well-cleaned trimmer will make much better cuts than one that is clogged with lint.

NOTE: It is extremely important to clean away all thread debris prior to oiling the trimmer blade and knife. Adding oil to uncleaned parts will only make a mess, and the lubrication will be less effective Use a small brush to clear away any threads, or use a small can of compressed air to blow away dust or debris. A small vacuum may also be used.
