to determine that it will operate
properly and perform its intended
function. Check for alignment of
moving parts, binding of moving

charge your battery.

Battery charging with the standard
charger :
1. Plug the power cord for the charger
into the 110/120V outlet.
Operating Tips
2. Insert the battery into the charger.
The battery fits into the oval recess in
only one way. Do not force the bat-
tery. Insert until it locks into place.
Avoid overloading the trimmer by cutting
objects too large for the blades. A good
indication of motor stress is by listening to
the sound it makes. If the speed drops and
it sounds like the motor is struggling, it
probably is. Use common sense when
using this trimmer, and it will give you
many years of trouble-free service.
3. The red LED light on the charging unit
will come on when the battery begins
its charging cycle.
4. Charge battery for 3-5 hours for a full
charge from a fully depleted condi-
tion. The red LED will not go off until
the battery is removed from the
charger base.
