5. Putting into operation
Charging the NC battery
1. Open the lid of the battery box and pull the
battery out of the handle.
2. Check that the mains voltage specified on the
rating plate is the same as your local mains
voltage. Connect the charging cable to the
charging adapter and plug the charger in a
socket-outlet. The green LED on the charging
adapter indicates that charging voltage is
available.
3. Insert the battery in the charging adapter. The red
LED indicates that the battery is being charged.
The charger does not switch off automatically
when the battery is fully charged. An empty
battery requires a maximum of 12 hours to be
charged. Charging takes less time according to
the level of the residual charge. While the battery
is being charged it may become warm. This is
normal.
If you find it impossible to charge the battery, please
check
-
whether there is voltage at the socket-outlet,
-
whether the charging contacts on the battery
charger make proper contact.
If you still fail to charge the battery, please return
the power pack
the charging adapter
and the battery
to our Customer Service Centre.
Timely recharging of the NC battery will help to pro-
long its useful life. This is particularly important when
you notice that the battery-powered grass cutter is
beginning to cut less efficiently.
Never allow the battery to discharge fully. You will be
left with a defective NC battery!
Using the Shears
The area to be cut should first be cleared of stones
and other solid objects. Pull the knife guard toward
the back until it latches firmly in place. The starting
inhibitor prevents your Einhell grass cutter from
being switched on unintentionally. To start up the
battery-powered grass cutter, slide the starting inhibi-
tor towards the back to unlock it. Then press the ON
button. When you are finished with your work, relea-
se the catch and push the knife guard back to the
front again in order to rule out injury.
