TROUBLE
SHOOTING
Although your new cordless grass trimmer
is really easy to operate. If you do
experience problems, check the following:
If grass trimmer will not operate
l
Check battery pack assembly
l
Charge the battery: running of the grass
trimmer is dependent upon sufficient
charge in the battery pack. The battery
charge will deplete if not used for a long
period of time. Try recharging the
battery pack. Ensure that the battery
pack is fully contacted charger base.
Note:
The battery pack will only fit into the
charger with + to + and - to -. The charger
will not operate at extremes of temperature.
The charger will get warm during charging
but this is normal.
If the battery will not charge
Check to see if the battery is properly
inserted the charger base, and make sure
the indicator light is on, if not check the
mains supply.
If the trimmer is not cutting properly
Check the condition of the cutting head, if
the cutting line is too short or cutting head
damaged.
Note: do not use damaged
cutting head.
