KEY INFORMATION YOU SHOULD KNOW:
• The guard must be installed before trimming or edging - if not, the
motor will overheat (page 6).
• When replacing the line, use only .065 inch diameter ROUND line
(B+D Model #AF-100 is recommended) - otherwise the appliance will
not function properly (page 8).
• Do not bump the feed head against the ground - it will disrupt the
feed mechanism.
•
For use only with lithium-ion 20v MAX* batteries.

      If your Black & Decker Trimmer battery pack won't charge, make sure it's properly inserted into the charger until the green LED appears. Also, check that the charger is plugged into a working outlet. If the surrounding air temperature is too hot or too cold, move the charger and battery pack to a location where the temperature is above 40°F (4.5°C) or below 105°F (+40.5°C).
