been cut: #0, #10, or #20.

may be full. Empty the dust bag often. See “INSTALLING/REMOVING

drawn into the dust bag. Remove the front and rear base assemblies
and clean blade, bearing plate, base assembly slots, and surrounding
areas. See “CLEANING THE BASE ASSEMBLY AND DUST PATH”.

gum and pitch remover. See “REPLACING THE BLADE”.
