If the light on the charger fails to come on:
o
Check the charger is securely connected into the socket of the battery.
o
Check the charger is securely plugged into the wall outlet and switched on.
Thermal voltage protection indication
•
To protect the battery against deep discharging, when the battery is flat, a protective circuit switches off
the Hedge Trimmer
for 2 minutes.
Do not continue to press the rear handle on/off switch (1) after an
automatic shut-off, as it will damage the battery. The battery must be re-charged before further use.
•
In the event that the thermal or voltage protection circuit has been activated the battery will cease to
operate. This can happen when the tool has been used for extended periods.
•
If you place the battery on the charger, the Charging Light will
flash in green and red alternately. Put the
battery and charger into a place with around 30degree room temperature for 30minutes, then the battery
starts normal charging status again.
INSTALLING OR REMOVING THE BATTERY
Always switch off the tool before insertion or removal of the battery.
Installing the battery
Align the notches in base of the hedge trimmer
handle (2) with those of the battery (6) and slide
the battery and hedge
trimmer together until
the battery locks into
place. (See Figure 1)
Removing the Battery
Press down the battery release button (7) and
slide out the battery. (See Figure 2)
Getting the best performance from the battery
The length of service from each charging cycle will depend on the type of work undertaken.
To obtain the longest possible battery life, we suggest the following:
•
Store and charge your batteries in a cool area. Temperatures above or below normal room temperature
will shorten battery life.
•
Never store batteries in a discharged condition. Recharge them immediately after they are discharged.
•
All batteries gradually lose their charge. The higher the temperature the quicker they lose their charge. If
you store your hedge trimmer for long periods of time without using it, recharge the batteries every
month or two. This practice will prolong battery life.
