BATTERY CHARGING
Battery
The length of service between each charge will depend on the type of work you are
doing. The battery in this Hedge/Grass Trimmer has been designed to provide
maximum trouble free life. However, like all batteries, it will eventually wear out.
To obtain the longest possible battery life, we suggest the following:
• Store and charge your Hedge/Grass Trimmer in a cool area. Temperatures above
or below normal room temperature will shorten battery life.
• Never store the Hedge/Grass Trimmer with the battery in a discharged condition.
Recharge them immediately after they are discharged.
• All batteries gradually lose their charge. The higher the temperature the quicker they lose
their charge. If you store your Hedge/Grass Trimmer for long periods of time without
using it, recharge the battery every 6 months. This practice will prolong battery life.
The Hedge/Grass Trimmer has been shipped in a low charge condition and should be
fully charged prior to use.
Plug the 230-240V charger adaptor (8) into an appropriate AC
power outlet. Connect the AC Adaptor charger plug (9) into
the charging socket (6) of the hedge/grass trimmer and switch
on the mains power (Fig. 1).
LED no.1 will illuminate red when charging. LEDs 2 & 3 will
not be illuminated when charging.
The battery will take approximately 5 hours to charge. This
may take up to 7 hours due to the level of charge left in the
battery and the ambient temperature.
NOTE: The state of charge indicator LED (7) will always be
illuminated when the charger is plugged in and turned on.
The charge indicator indicates the charge of the Hedge/Grass Trimmer.
