Charging the battery

The battery pack for this tool has been shipped in a low charge condition. You should charge the battery pack fully before use.

WARNING. Do not use an extension cord. WARNING. Charge indoors only.

WARNING. Do not throw used batteries into a fire or water: it could cause an explosion! Please hand in non- working or used batteries, or tools with built-in batteries, to the environmentally safe disposal unit at a municipal waste-disposal centre, or to your dealer.

1.Connect the charging unit

(7)to the adaptor (8) and connect the adaptor to a suitable pin socket.

2.Insert the battery (4) into the charger unit (7).

3.The battery charge time is approx. 3-5 hours, after which the battery pack

(4)should be removed. A good indication for a fully charged battery is the temperature of the pack, which becomes fairly warm as the battery becomes fully charged.

4.After normal use, 3 hours of charging time is required for the battery

pack to be fully charged. However, 4-5 hours charging will ensure a longer run time of your tool.

5.Do not charge batteries for “top up”. Batteries should be placed on charge only when they are discharged.

6.If your battery delivers abnormal performance, discharge the battery completely (so that the hedge trimmer slows but does not stop completely) and then

charge it for approximately 8 hours but only until the battery starts to become warm to hot to touch. Do this 3 times and the battery should come back up to a good condition.

7.Unplug the charger when not in use and store it in a dry, secure place.

8.Avoid charging your battery in temperatures below 4°C and above 40°C. The ideal charging temperature is 20°C.

9.Always remove the battery pack and store it in a dry, secure place when the trimmer is not in use.

10.Battery charging should only be carried out indoors.

WARNING. Never leave a battery on charge once it’s warm.

WARNING. Do not charge the battery for more than 8 hours, as this will damage the battery cells.

Safety features

1.The fixed blade teeth have extended points with rounded ends to reduce the chance of injury in case of accidental contact.

2.The fixed blade is longer than the moving blade to guard against kickback should you inadvertently make contact with a wall or fence.

3.The rear handle trigger switch (1) and front handle bar switch (2) must be operated together to start the motor. This ensures that both hands are used to control the trimmer.

4.If either of the two switches is released, the tool is designed to stop rapidly.

Switching on and off

1.To switch on, press both the trigger switch (1) and the bar switch (2) at the same time.

2.To switch off, release either switch.
