Your grass trimmer need 3-5 hours charge 
before use. To charge battery, first remove 
battery pack from trimmer. Press the

Charging the Battery

The charger and grass trimmer battery 
pack in this pack are specifically designed 
to work together. Do not attempt to use the 
grass trimmer battery pack with any other 
charger.

Important notes for chargering the 
battery

The battery is supplied UNCHARGED 
from the factory. It will be necessary to 
charger the battery for approximately 3-5 
hours before use.
Do not charge a battery when it or the air 

O

temperature is below 4 C.
Between charge

 cycles

 rest the charger for at 

least 15 minutes.
In a warm environment or after heavy use, 
the battery pack may become too hot to 
permit charging. Allow time for the battery 
to cool down before recharging.
When the battery is charged for the first 
time and after prolonged storage, the 
battery will only accept approximately 60% 
charge. However, after several charge and 
discharge cycles the battery will accept a 
100% charge.
