OPERATION
CHARGING PROCEDURE:
NOTICE: Do not place the charger in an area of extreme heat or cold. It will work best at normal
room temperature. The battery pack will become slightly warm to the touch while charging. This is
normal and does not indicate a problem.
1. Plug charger into household outlet, make sure the power supply is normal household voltage,
120 Volts, AC only, 60 Hz.
2. Attach the battery pack to the charger by aligning the raised ribs on the battery pack with the
grooves in the charger, then slide the battery pack onto the charger.
3. Press down on the battery pack to be sure contacts on the battery pack engage properly with
contacts in the charger. The green LED will flash as the battery charges.
4. After charging is complete, the green LED will remain on.
5. To remove the battery pack from the charger, slide back the battery pack.
6. Charging takes approx. 1-3 hours depending on the battery size. The battery heats up during
the charging process. This is normal and does not signal a fault. Do not let battery remain on
charger for more than 5 hours.
Note: Occasionally, the permissible temperature range may be exceeded during the charging cycle.
In this case, the electronic charging control interrupts the charging cycle to avoid any damage to the
battery. The red control light will then glow continuously. If you should witness this, pull the battery
from the charging station and let it cool down for about 30 minutes. Then, restart the charging cycle
by sliding the battery back onto the charging station.

TRIMMER OPERATION

Adopt a safe stance. Hold the trimmer in both hands. Do not set
the cutting device down on the ground. Press the trigger lock on
side of handle (3) and hold down on/off trigger (1). After switching
on, let go of the starter switch. In order to switch off, release the
trigger (1).
With the unit on, angle unit and slowly swing the trimmer side.
Maintain a cutting angle of 5° to 10°. Do not exceed 10°. Cut with
the tip of the line. To keep distance from hard surfaces use edge
guide. Maintain a minimum distance of 24 inches (609.6 mm)
between the guard and your feet. To achieve this distance adjust
the overall height of the trimmer.
FEEDING TRIMMER LINE
Your trimmer uses .065 inch (1.65 mm) diameter, ROUND nylon line. During use, the tips of the nylon
lines will become frayed and worn and the special self feeding spool will automatically feed and trim
a fresh length of line. Do not bump on ground in attempt to feed line or for any other purposes.
Cutting line will wear faster and require more feeding if the cutting or edging is done along sidewalks
or other abrasive surfaces or heavier weeds are being cut.
