Important: The battery pack is not fully charged when it
is purchased. Before using the hedge trimmer for the
first time, place the battery pack in the charger charge
until the LED indicators turn green. Make sure to read all
safety precautions. With regular use, it will need shorter
charging time. If storing for a prolonged period of time,
remove the battery. When ready to use again, charge
the battery pack until the LED indicators turn green.
5. Place one hand on the trigger handle. Place the other hand
on the auxiliary handle (Figure 2).
6. Slide the lock switch backwards, towards you, then squeeze
the trigger switch to turn on the hedge trimmer (Figure 2).
The trimmer will stay on as long as the trigger switch is
squeezed. Lock-off switch may be released once hedge
trimmer is running (Figure 2).

Charging the Battery Pack
Important: For best results, your battery pack should be
charged in a location where the temperature is more than 0°
C (32° F) but less than 40° C (104° F). To reduce the risk of
serious personal injury, do not store outside or in vehicles.
Charging time will increase if it is not charged within this
range.

with the slot in the charger (Figure 4 and Figure 5).
