The 24V-GT10-LTE uses disposable nylon grass blades designed to cut grass and weeds.
Blade life depends on how and where the trimmer is used. Avoiding hard objects and keeping the cutting area clear can help reduce unnecessary blade wear and damage.
What Are the Blades Designed to Cut?
The 24V-GT10-LTE's interchangeable nylon blade system is designed for trimming grass and weeds.
Shop Joe identifies the 24V-GT10-LTE as a stringless grass trimmer with a disposable nylon blade that cuts a 10-inch-wide path through overgrown grass and unwanted weeds.
How Can I Help Extend Blade Life?
-
Clear the Cutting Area First
Before trimming, remove stones, small sticks, and other objects from the cutting area.
The manual also instructs users to check for hidden objects such as glass, rocks, concrete, fencing, wire, wood, and metal.
-
Keep the Blade Away from Hard Objects
Maintain at least 1 foot of clearance between the blade and nearby objects.
Do not operate the trimmer blade against sidewalks, fencing, posts, siding, buildings, or other immovable objects.
-
Use the Trimmer for Its Intended Cutting Tasks
Use the nylon blade for cutting grass and weeds as described in the operator's manual and official product information.
-
Inspect the Blade Regularly
Inspect the blade before each use and periodically during longer periods of operation.
If the blade is bent, warped, cracked, chipped, or otherwise damaged, stop using it and replace it.
-
Keep the Trimmer Clean
After each cutting operation, remove grass and soil from the trimmer and safety guard.
Keep the air vents clean and free from grass during operation.
Do not intentionally contact hard surfaces with the nylon blade. The operator's manual warns that contact with immovable objects can damage the blade or blade hub.
How Should I Clean the Trimmer?
Use a cloth with hot water and a soft brush to clean the grass trimmer.
Do not spray or wet the trimmer with water, and do not use detergents or solvents because they can damage the plastic components.
When Should I Replace the Blade?
Nylon trimmer blades will wear over time with normal use. Replace a worn or damaged blade when needed.
Use only the approved replacement blade type. Do not substitute steel blades, wire, string, rope, or other cutting materials.
The operator's manual identifies GT10-GBLD-20PK as the additional replacement blade pack for this trimmer.
How Do I Replace a Worn Blade?
-
Turn Off the Trimmer + Remove the Battery
Stop the unit and remove the battery from the battery compartment before changing the blade.
-
Release the Worn Blade
Move the worn blade inward until the blade peg is positioned in the larger hole of the blade.
Remove the blade from the blade peg.
-
Install the New Blade
Fit the blade peg into the larger hole of the replacement blade.
-
Lock the Blade in Place
Pull the blade outward until the peg locks into the smaller hole of the new blade.
