Installing the Battery
7
The hedge trimmer will operate when the battery is installed,
the power indicator LED is lit, and the trigger switch and front
handle operator presence switch are engaged. Make sure the
hedge trimmer is properly positioned to prevent loss of control
and possible serious injury. Keep movable parts of the hedge
trimmer off the ground and away from objects that could become
entangled.
The battery comes partially charged from the factory and needs to be
fully charged before first use.
Note: See separate Operator's Manual Packaged with the Battery.
