How do I maintain the blades?

After cleaning the blades, it is recommended to lightly oil them to prevent rust and keep them in optimal cutting condition. Store with blade guards on.

Troubleshooting

Hedge trimmer does not start.

Ensure the battery is fully charged and correctly inserted. Check that the safety switch is engaged and try a different compatible battery if available.

Blades are not cutting effectively.

Clean any debris from the blades. Ensure they are sharp and properly aligned. Check the maximum cutting thickness is not exceeded. Lubricate the blades if necessary.

Excessive vibration during use.

Ensure all parts are securely fastened. Check for any obstructions or damage to the blades. The low-vibration system is designed to minimize this, but excessive vibration may indicate an issue.

Battery drains too quickly.

Ensure the battery is fully charged. Older batteries may have reduced capacity. Avoid cutting material thicker than the maximum specified limit, as this can strain the motor.
