The light on the unit’s charger should turn GREEN after approximately 1
hour of charging during regular use. However, it may take up to 2 hours to
turn green during it’s initial charge or after long periods of storage.
Problem: GREEN LIGHT immediately illuminates when trying to charge a
discharged battery.
Solution(s):
•
The battery pack can become hot during use. Allow the battery pack to
reach normal temperature (between 50-100 degrees Fahrenheit) before
attempting to charge it. Insert the battery into the charger AFTER it has
cooled to a normal temperature.
Problem: Cutting or run-time performance is diminished.
Solution(s):
•
Please follow the trimming techniques described in this manual for best
performance.
•
The hedge trimmer should operate for approximately 45 minutes with a full
charge. If your run-time is considerably less than this, disconnect the battery
pack and inspect the blades to be sure they are clean and free of obstructions.
•
Make sure the unit is fully charged – see the Operations section of this
manual for charging details.
Problem: Thumb safety switch is difficult to hold on during use.
Solution:

product.

Solution:
•
Be sure that the battery pack is fully inserted into the hedge trimmer.
