CAUTION!
This charger does not automatically turn off
when the battery is fully charged. Please take care not to leave
the grass shear + hedge trimmer plugged into the charger.
Switch off or unplug the charger at the mains when charging is
complete.
NOTE: The charge level indicator LED light will illuminate red
when the charger is plugged in and is charging the grass shear
+ hedge trimmer. The middle LED light will turn green when the
grass shear + hedge trimmer is fully charged.
The charging process starts as soon as the charger is plugged
into both the proper electrical outlet and the tool.
• During the charging procedure, the handle of the tool will
feel slightly warm to the touch. This is normal.
• When no further use is planned for an extended period of
time, disconnect the battery charger from the outlet and the
unit.
• Do not use the tool during the charging procedure.
Battery Charging
The length of service between each charging varies depending
on the type of work you are doing. The battery in this grass
shear + hedge 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 grass shear + hedge trimmer in
a cool area. Temperatures above or below normal room
temperature will shorten battery life.
• Never store the grass shear + hedge trimmer with the battery
in a discharged condition. Recharge the unit immediately
after it is discharged.
• All batteries gradually lose their charge. The higher the
temperature is, the faster they lose their charge. If you store
your grass shear + hedge trimmer for long periods of time
without using it, recharge the battery every 6 months. This
will extend battery life.
NOTE: The grass shear + hedge trimmer has been shipped in a
low charge condition and should be fully charged before use.
1. Plug the charger adaptor into an appropriate AC power
outlet. Connect the AC adaptor charger plug into the
charging socket of the grass shear + hedge trimmer to start
charging (Fig. 9).

2. LED no.1 will illuminate red when charging. LED's 2 and 3

3. The battery will take approximately 3 hours to charge.
Charging may take up to 5 hours due to the level of charge
left in the battery and the ambient temperature.
NOTE: A charge level indicator LED light will always be
illuminated when the charger is plugged in and the mains power
is turned on. The charge indicator indicates the charge status of
the grass shear + hedge trimmer as shown below:

runs down (i.e. the tool will only slowly operate and the yellow
charger indicator will be illuminated). Recharge for 3 to 5 hours
again before resuming operation.
