I am unable to lengthen, fasten or cut off the filament on my GARDENA
trimmer cassette.
There can be several reasons why there could be a problem with the filament
feed and it can be difficult to work out what these are over the phone. For this
reason, the filament feed is explained in full on this information sheet. When
only trimming grass, work can continue for an extended period, up to 15
minutes, without re-adjusting (= filament feed). When trimming against hard
objects like walls, borders, kerbs, fences, shrubbery etc., the filament will wear
out faster depending on the circumstances. To maintain good, seamless
cutting performance even in these applications, frequent re-adjustment is
necessary! The filament must be re-adjusted at the latest when a) cutting
performance markedly reduces (poor cutting results) b) the motor speed
increases (this results in a different noise from the trimmer).
Can I regrind or sharpen the blades for the GARDENA Accu Shears?
In principle, if you have the technical equipment to do so, we recommend that
any existing nicks, which may be caused by contact with stones, for example,
should be smoothed over using a sharpening stone. The cutting edge can
also be sharpened a little. If the blades are more severely worn (visible by the
fact that the otherwise flat underside of the blades has become convex), the
blades would have to be reground on both the face and the cutting side. We
do not want to recommend this complex grinding process to our customers as
the blades would end up lacking the necessary hardness. We do not
recommend regrinding the sets of blades. The desired successful results will
no longer be achieved in the long term. Furthermore, the optimum angle of the
cutting edge is usually only achieved by special grinding machines.
Depending on how the Accu Shears are used, it can be assumed that the
