  Your Stihl Trimmer might not start because the battery's charge is too low. To resolve this, charge the battery as detailed in the User Manual for the STIHL AL 101, 301, 301-4, 500 chargers. Another cause could be that the battery is either too warm or too cold. If this is the case, remove the battery and allow it to cool down or warm up to an acceptable temperature.

  If your Stihl Trimmer's run-time is shorter than expected, it could be due to a battery issue. Either the battery is not fully charged – in which case, charge the battery. Alternatively, the battery's useful life may have been reached or exceeded, and you should have the battery checked by an authorized STIHL servicing dealer.

  Erik HarrisSep 23, 2025
  If your Stihl Trimmer battery isn't charging despite a green LED on the charger, the battery might be too hot or too cold. Allow the battery to warm up or cool down gradually at ambient temperatures of about 50 °F to 68 °F (10 °C to 20 °C). Also, ensure you're operating the charger in enclosed, dry rooms at ambient temperatures of 41 °F to 104 °F (5 °C to 40 °C).
