14. Keep away from the cutting line – 

It can seriously injure 

the skin.

15. Do not try to stop the cutting device with your hands – 

Always let it come to a stop by itself. 

16. Stay alert – Watch what you are doing. Use common 

sense. Do not operate the t edger when you are 

tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol

, or  

other medication.

m

after turning the trimmer OFF. Wait until the trimmer line spool 

has completely stopped before making contact.

•  Only use the same type of line originally provided with 

 

the tool.

• 

Do not use the unit to cut grass that is not in contact with 

the ground.

• 

Do not switch the t edger 

ON

 in enclosed or poorly 

ventilated spaces or in the presence of flammable and/or 

explosive substances such as liquids, gases, and powders. 

• 

The user of the t edger is responsible for any 

damage sustained by third parties that has been caused by 

the grass trimmer within the working area.

•  Only cut during broad daylight or with adequate 

 

artificial light.

• 

Do not cross roads or gravel paths while the unit is  

still running.

• 

When the t edger is not in use, store it in a dry 

place and out of the reach of children.

• 

The t edger must be operated in a vertical position, 

perpendicular to the ground.

• 

Check regularly that all screws are properly secured.

Battery & Charger  

Safety Instructions

We pay a great deal of attention to the design of every battery 

pack to ensure that we supply you with batteries that are safe, 

durable and have a high energy density. The battery cells have 

a wide range of safety devices. Each individual cell is initially 

formatted and its electrical characteristic curves are recorded. 

This data is then used exclusively to be able to assemble the 

best possible battery packs.
Despite all the safety precautions, caution must always be 

exercised when handling batteries. The following points must 

be obeyed at all times to ensure safe use. Safe use can only 

be guaranteed if undamaged cells are used. Incorrect handling 

of the battery pack can cause cell damage.
IMPORTANT!

 Analyses confirm that incorrect use and poor 

care of high-performance batteries are the main factors 

responsible for personal and/or product damage.

m

WARNING!

 Use only approved replacement batteries; 

other batteries may damage the t edger and cause it 

to malfunction.

m

CAUTION!

 To reduce the risk of injury, charge the 

EcoSharp

®

 LITE iBAT20-LTE lithium-ion battery pack only in its 

designated lithium-ion charger, the iCHRG20. Other types of 

chargers present risk of fire, personal injury and damage. Do 

not wire a battery pack to a power supply plug or car cigarette 

lighter. Such misuse will permanently disable or damage the 

battery pack.

• 

Avoid dangerous environments – Do not charge the 

battery pack in rain, snow or in damp or wet locations. 

Do not use the battery pack or charger in the presence of 

explosive atmospheres (gaseous fumes, dust or flammable 

materials) because sparks may be generated when inserting 

or removing the battery pack, which could lead to a fire.

• 

Charge in a well-ventilated area – Do not block the 

charger vents. Keep them clear to allow for proper 

ventilation. Do not allow smoking or open flames near a 

charging battery pack. Vented gases may explode.

  NOTE:

 The safe temperature range for the battery is 32°F 

(0°C) to 113°F (45°C). Do not charge the battery outside in 

freezing weather; charge it at room temperature. 

• 

Maintain charger cord – When unplugging the charger, pull 

the plug, not the cord, from the receptacle to reduce the 

risk of damage to the electrical plug and cord. Never carry 

the charger by its cord or yank it by the cord to disconnect 

it from the receptacle. Keep the cord away from heat, oil 

and sharp edges. Make sure the cord will not be stepped 

on, tripped over or subjected to damage or stress when the 

charger is in use. Do not use the charger with a damaged 

cord or plug. Replace a damaged charger immediately.

• 

Do not use an extension cord unless it is absolutely 

necessary – Using the wrong, damaged or improperly 

wired extension cord poses a risk of fire and electric shock. 

If an extension cord must be used, plug the charger into a 

properly wired 16 gauge or larger extension cord with the 

female plug matching the male plug on the charger. Make 

sure that the extension cord is in good electrical condition.

• 

Charger iCHRG20 is rated for 120 volt AC only – The 

charger must be plugged into an appropriate receptacle.

• 

Use only recommended attachments – Use of an 

attachment not recommended or sold by the battery 

charger or battery pack manufacturer may result in risk of 

fire, electric shock or personal injury.

• 

Unplug charger when not in use –

 Make sure to remove 

battery packs from unplugged chargers.

m

WARNING! 

To reduce the risk of electric shock, 

always unplug the charger before performing any cleaning or 

maintenance. Do not allow water to flow into the charger. Use 

a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) to reduce 

 

shock hazards.
