HEDGE TRIMMER MODEL HT255
AD 0213 F/N 558936
INSPECT THE HANDLES
Make sure that both the front and rear
handles are clean, dry, and are free of
cracks or other damage. Serious personal
injury can result if a damaged handle
breaks during use.
INSPECT BATTERY PORT
Make sure the battery port is clean, dry,
and free of debris. Debris in the battery
port can prevent a good electrical
connection between the battery pack
and the hedge trimmer.
BATTERY PACK
WARNING: THERE ARE NO
USER SERVICEABLE PARTS INSIDE
THE BATTERY PACK. DO NOT
DISASSEMBLE.
Lithium ion batteries have a
predetermined 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.
