Inspection

Before each use, and if the hedge trimmer has
been dropped, inspect these parts:
HEDGE TRIMMER
Inspect the cutting blades Make sure that cutting
blades are sharp, have no nicks or blunt edges,
and do not hang up or catch when running the
hedge trimmer Periodically file away nicks and
burrs on the blades to ensure they move freely
Sharp and free-moving cutting blades cut more
easily than dull or sticky ones
POWERHEAD
• The handle should not have cracks or other
damage It should be clean, dry, and free of oil,
moisture, or anything else that prevents a firm
grip
• The electronics cooling vent should be clear and
free of debris
• The battery pack should be clean, dry, and show
no signs of puncture, impact, or other damage
The contacts should be clean, dry, and free of
debris
• The battery port and contacts should be clean,
dry, and free of debris
• The variable speed trigger should operate
smoothly and should cause increased powerhead
speed with increased pressure
• The variable speed trigger should prevent the
motor starting if it is not depressed
• Screws should be tight and hold each component
in place

Cleaning

and attachments, do not immerse in water or
other liquids. Do not use a pressure washer to
clean the powerhead and attachments.
• Remove the battery
• Remove any debris from the intake screen to
ensure unrestricted airflow
• Clear any debris from the battery port and wipe
the contacts

• Slip the blade cover over the cutting blades to
keep them clean, and to prevent them snagging
or cutting people or objects
BATTERY PACK
IMPORTANT: There are no user serviceable
parts inside the battery pack. Do not
disassemble.
Lithium ion batteries have a finite operating life
If the amount of use time per charge decreases
noticeably under normal use, the battery pack is
at the end of its useful life and should be replaced
• Make sure the battery pack, including the
contacts, is clean, dry, and has no signs of
puncture, impact, or other damage Broken
batteries can cause fires or emit hazardous
chemicals
• Clean dirty contacts with a soft, dry cloth Dirt
or oil can cause a poor electrical connection
resulting in loss of power
• Store battery with a full charge, on a charger
when possible
CHARGER
IMPORTANT: There are no user serviceable
parts inside the charger. Do not disassemble.
