Sharpen correctly
If
slightly dull:
Use flat file
(4)
0814 212
3310-
In
case of more serious wear or
nicks: Resharpen with a grinder -
maintain a sharpening angle of
30°
(A)
on the cutting edge
(1).
File back the cutting edge
parallel to the lines
(B)
(see
illustration).
Resharpen frequently, take
away as little material as
possible - two or three strokes
of
the file are usually enough.
44
Grass cutting blade 230-8
Never straighten
or
weld a bent or
cracked cutting blade -
it
might
shatter and cause serious
or
fatal injury.
Resharpen when the tips of the
cutting edges
(1)
have worn
down to about 1mm/3/64" (A).
To
avoid out-of-balance:
Resharpen the cutters
(2)
uniformly - do not alter the contour
of the parent blade
(3)
in any
way.
After resharpening about 5 times,
have blade checked on STIHL
balancer 5910 850 2600 and
rebalanced as necessary.
Measurements and angles for
resharpening
Leave clearance of 2mm/5/64"
(B)
between cutting edge and parent
blade
-
R1
should be 2mm/5/64".
Radius
R2
is
2.5mmf7164"
and
is
obtained automatically if you use the
specified file and maintain a filing angle
of 30° (C).
Cutting edge
(0)
must be exactly
in
line
with center of blade's mounting hole.
