5. If the blades do become jammed, release the trigger switch and allow the blades to stop.
Remove the battery pack before attempting to remove the obstruction.

directly into the cutting blade. Older growth will have thicker stems and will be trimmed
easiest by using a sawing movement.
MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE
BLADE CARE
1. Lubricate the cutting blades after each use.
2. Periodically inspect the blades for damage and wear.
3. Always use the manufacturer's specified replacement blades.
TO LUBRICATE BLADE
1.For easier operation and longer blade life, lubricate the hedge trimmer blade before and
after each use.
2.Before lubricating, remove the battery pack and lay hedge trimmer on a flat surface.
3.Apply light machine oil along the edge of the top blade.
4.Always remove the battery pack before lubricating the blades and never apply oil to
moving blades.
STORING
1. Clean the hedge trimmer thoroughly before storing. Store the hedge trimmer with the
battery removed in a dry, well-ventilated place that is inaccessible to children. Keep away
from corrosive agents such as garden chemicals and deicing salts.
2. Always fit the blade cover over the blades before storage. This will protect the blades
from damage and prevent injury on the sharp blades.
3.Store and charge your batteries in a cool, dry area. Temperatures above or below
normal room temperature will shorten battery pack life.
4. Never store the battery in a discharged condition. Wait for the battery to cool and
recharge before storage.
