  First, ensure the battery packs have been properly installed. Next, release the operating bail to turn the dethatcher off, remove the batteries, and check that the tine and blade cylinders are free to turn. If they aren't, return the dethatcher to an authorized service center. Also, verify that the battery has been fully charged by plugging in the charger and waiting for the green light. For starting, be sure to press both the start button and the operating bail simultaneously.
