Removing the Battery A Dr. Egbert Schneider

Senior Vice President Engineering

Dr. Eckerhard Strötgen

Head of Product Certification

Switch off and remove battery from machine before adjusting or cleaning. The blade continues to rotate for a few seconds after the cordless trimmer is switched off. Caution – do not touch the rotating blade.

Press the battery unlocking button and pull out the battery 15 toward the rear.

The charging procedure starts as soon as the mains plug is plugged into the socket and the battery is then inserted into the battery charger

14. Firstly, place the battery 15 as shown in the figure onto the front of the battery charger (n) and then press the battery 15 down at the rear (o). To remove the battery, proceed in reverse order. Due to the intelligent charging method, the charging condition of the battery is automatically detected and the battery is charged with the optimum charging current, depending on battery temperature and voltage. This gives longer life to the battery and always leaves it fully charged when kept in the charger for storage.

F016 L70 510 | (15.11.07)

Note: The charging procedure is only possible when the battery temperature is within the allowable charging temperature range, see section “Technical Data”. Flashing Battery Charge Indicator 13 The charging procedure is signalled by a flashing battery charge indicator 13. Continuous Lighting of the Battery Charge Indicator 13 Continuous lighting of the battery charge indicator 13 indicates that the battery is fully charged or that the temperature of the battery is not within the allowable charging temperature range, and cannot be charged for this reason. The battery is charged as soon as the allowable charging temperature range is reached. When the battery is not inserted, continuous lighting of the battery charge indicator 13 indicates that the mains plug is inserted in the socket and that the battery charger is ready for operation. Charging Advice With continuous or several repetitive charging cycles without interruption, the charger can warm up. This is not meaningful and does not indicate a technical defect of the battery charger. A significantly reduced working period after charging indicates that the battery is used and must be replaced.

Do not insert the battery until the cordless trimmer is completely assembled. Ensure that the cordless trimmer is assembled in the following order: Mounting the Blade Guard B Place the blade guard 11 on the trimmer head 9. nHook the blade guard onto the trimmer head and push it toward the rear. oPress the blade guard downward until securely latched (click). Mounting the Cutting Disc/Blade C Press the cutting disc 16 onto the drive shaft

D Position the blade 10 onto the pin 17, push it

down and pull it outward until it engages.

Starting Remove stones, loose pieces of wood and other objects from the cutting area. The blade continues to rotate for a few seconds after the cordless trimmer is switched off. Allow the motor/blade to stop rotating before switching “on” again. Do not rapidly switch off and on.

The Electronic Cell Protection (ECP) protects the lithium ion battery against deep discharging.

When the battery is run down or discharged, the machine is shut off by means of a protective circuit: The blade no longer rotates.

Inserting the Battery

f Do not continue to press the On/Off switch after an automatic shut-off of the machine.
