What to do if my Stihl HSA 85 Trimmer cuts out during operation?
If your Stihl Trimmer cuts out during operation, it could be due to the battery or power tool circuitry being too hot. To resolve this, take the battery out of the power tool and allow both the battery and power tool to cool down. Another potential cause is an electrical malfunction. Try removing the battery and refitting it again to see if that resolves the issue.
What to do if my Stihl HSA 85 power tool cuts out during operation?
If your Stihl Trimmer cuts out during operation, it could be due to the battery or power tool circuitry being too warm. To resolve this, take the battery out and allow both the battery and the power tool to cool down. Another possible cause is an electrical malfunction. In this case, remove the battery and refit it properly.
Why is the running time of my Stihl HSA 85 Trimmer too short?
A short running time for your Stihl Trimmer could be caused by several factors. The battery may not be fully charged, so ensure you charge it completely. The battery's life may have been reached or exceeded, so check the battery and replace it if necessary. Also, the blades might be sticking or dirty; clean them and spray them with STIHL resin solvent.
Why my Stihl HSA 85 does not run when switched on?
If your Stihl Trimmer does not run when switched on, there are several potential reasons. First, check that there is proper electrical contact between the power tool and the battery by removing the battery and refitting it properly. Other causes include: the battery being discharged (charge the battery), the battery being too hot or too cold (allow it to cool down or warm up), a faulty battery (install a new one), the power tool being too warm (allow it to cool down), the power tool being faulty (have it checked by a servicing dealer), or moisture in the power tool or battery (allow them to dry).
Why Stihl HSA 85 running time is too short?
If the running time of your Stihl Trimmer is too short, it could be due to several factors. The battery may not be fully charged, so ensure you charge it completely. The battery's lifespan might be reached or exceeded, so check and replace if necessary. Also, the blades might be sticking or dirty; clean them and spray with STIHL resin solvent.
What does it mean when the light emitting diode on my Stihl HSA 85 charger flashes red?
A flashing red light emitting diode on your Stihl Trimmer charger can indicate a few issues. There might be no electrical contact between the charger and battery, so remove the battery and refit it again. It could also indicate a fault in the battery, which is also indicated by 4 light emitting diodes flashing red for about 5 seconds, so take the battery out of the power tool, refit it, and switch on the power tool – if the light emitting diodes still flash, the battery is faulty and must be replaced. Finally, it could mean there is a fault in the charger, in which case you should have the charger checked by a servicing dealer.
What to do if Stihl HSA 85 Trimmer battery is not charging, but the light is green?
If your Stihl Trimmer battery isn't charging even though the light emitting diode on the charger glows green, it could be because the battery is too hot or too cold, indicated by one light emitting diode on the battery glowing red. Allow the battery to cool down or warm up slowly at a temperature between 15°C and 20°C. Operate the charger indoors only in dry locations at an ambient temperature between +5°C and +40°C.
