What to do if 4 LEDs flash red on my Stihl HSA 56?
If 4 LEDs flash red on your Stihl Trimmer, it means there is a fault in the battery. Remove and reinsert the battery, then switch on the trimmer. If the LEDs continue to flash red, stop using the battery and contact your STIHL dealer for assistance.
Why are 3 LEDs flashing red on my Stihl HSA 56 Trimmer?
If 3 LEDs flash red on your Stihl Trimmer, it could indicate a malfunction. Remove the battery, clean the electrical contacts in the battery compartment, and reinsert the battery. Then, switch on the trimmer. If the issue persists, stop using the trimmer and seek assistance from your STIHL servicing dealer. Alternatively, the cutting blades may not be running freely. Spray both sides of the cutting blades with STIHL resin solvent. If the LEDs continue to flash red, discontinue use and contact your STIHL servicing dealer.
Why Stihl HSA 56 Trimmer runtime is too short?
If your Stihl Trimmer's runtime is too short, it could be because the battery isn't fully charged. Make sure to fully charge the battery. Another reason could be that the battery service life has been exceeded, meaning it's time to replace the battery.
Why does my Stihl HSA 56 not start?
If your Stihl Trimmer doesn't start when switched on, it might be due to several reasons. The battery could have a low charge, so try charging it. It's also possible the battery is either too hot or too cold; in that case, remove it and allow it to cool down or warm up. There might be no electrical contact between the trimmer and the battery, so removing the battery and cleaning the contacts in the battery compartment before refitting it can resolve this. Also, the trimmer or battery might be damp, so allow them to dry. If the cutting blades do not move freely, spray both sides of the blades with STIHL resin solvent. If 3 or 4 LEDs continue to flash red, this indicates a malfunction, and you should contact a STIHL servicing dealer for assistance.
Why does my Stihl HSA 56 Trimmer cut out during operation?
