FAQs

What is the warranty period for this hedge trimmer?

Please refer to the product manual or the retailer's purchase information for specific warranty details, as warranty periods can vary.

Does this trimmer come with a battery and charger?

Typically, cordless tools like this are sold as bare tools, meaning the battery and charger are purchased separately. Please check the product listing or packaging for confirmation.

How often should I clean the blades?

It is recommended to clean the blades after every use to maintain performance and prevent rust or sap build-up.

Can I use this trimmer for thick branches?

This trimmer has a cutting capacity of 16mm, making it suitable for twigs and smaller branches. For thicker branches, you would need a more powerful tool or manual loppers.

What type of maintenance is required?

Basic maintenance includes cleaning the blades after use, proper storage in a dry place, and periodic checks for sharpness and lubrication as per the user manual.

Is the battery interchangeable with other Performance Power tools?

Yes, this 18V hedge trimmer uses batteries compatible with the Performance Power 18V cordless system, allowing use across various tools in that range.

Troubleshooting

Trimmer does not turn on

Ensure the battery is fully charged and correctly inserted. Check that the safety switch is engaged.

Blades are not cutting effectively

Clean the blades of any debris or sap. Check if the branches exceed the 16mm cutting capacity. Ensure blades are sharp; consider professional sharpening if dull.

Trimmer stops during use

The battery may be low; try a fully charged battery. The trimmer may have overheated; allow it to cool down. Check for any jams in the cutting mechanism.

Reduced cutting power

Verify battery charge level. Clean blades and check for obstructions. Ensure no vegetation is caught between the blades.
