CORRECTING GRASS BIND

START ACCIDENTALLY. ALWAYS
REMOVE THE BATTERY BEFORE
CORRECTING GRASS BIND TO AVOID
ACCIDENTAL ACTIVATION OF THE
TRIMMER HEAD.
Certain types and lengths of grass can
sometimes be caught between the
trimmer head and the spindle. When this
happens, the grass quickly winds around
the shaft clogging the space between the
shaft and the trimmer head and slowing
or stopping the trimmer head rotation.
This condition is called grass bind. The
trimmer/edger is equipped with a grass
wrap protector shroud between the
trimmer head and the spindle to help
minimize grass bind, but the condition
can still occasionally occur.
To correct grass bind:
• Remove the battery.
• Remove the trimmer head.
• Clean all grass or weeds from the
spindle. If necessary, cut the grass or
weeds free.
• Once the spindle is cleared, replace the
trimmer head.
BATTERY PACK
WARNING: THERE ARE NO
USER SERVICEABLE PARTS INSIDE
THE BATTERY PACK. DO NOT
DISASSEMBLE.
Lithium ion batteries have a finite
operating life. If the amount of cutting
time per charge decreases noticeably, the
battery pack is at the end of its useful life
and should be replaced.
• Make sure the battery pack, including
the contacts, is clean, dry, and has no
signs of puncture, impact, or other
damage. Broken batteries can cause
fires or emit hazardous chemicals.
• Clean dirty contacts with a soft, dry
cloth. Dirt or oil can cause a poor
electrical connection resulting in loss of
power.
CHARGER
• Unplug the charger from the electrical
outlet.
• Clean dirty contacts with a soft, dry
cloth.
