Tool
Does not
operate.
The tool has been
used for heavy work.
This is the e
ff
ect of a function that protects
the battery by turning o
ff
the motor when
the tool is exposed to an excessive load.
Release the switch and remove what
caused the excessive load and pull back
the switch to resume work.
The tool does
not trim well.
The blade has become
dull.
Use a wire brush or other tool to remove
sap and rust and use a
fi
le or whetstone
to sharpen the blade. If these e
ff
orts fail
to make the blade sharper, the blade
has reached the end of its service life.
Replace the blade with a new one.
The blade stopped
because it was used
to cut a branch whose
width exceeded
the blade’s cutting
capacity.
NOTE
Work that will
repeatedly cause
the blade to stop
will eventually
damage the
motor.
Some garden trees have wood that is very
hard and may be beyond the capacity of
the tool even if it is of a width that is within
normal capacity. Use a pair of pruning
shear to remove thick branches before
starting work.
An oblique cut may also exceed the
capacity of the tool since the length of
the cut increases. Be sure to trim thick
branches at right angles.
