Troubleshooting
Tool does not turn on
Ensure the battery is charged. Check that the safety lock is disengaged and the trigger is fully pressed. If the issue persists, contact customer support.
Blades are not cutting cleanly
Verify that the correct blade is installed and securely locked. Check the blades for damage or dullness. Clean any debris from the blades. Consider replacing the blades if they are worn.
Battery not charging
Ensure the charger is properly connected to a working power outlet and the tool. Check the charging indicator light. If the battery still doesn't charge, it may need to be replaced.
Tool feels underpowered
Make sure the battery is fully charged. Avoid trying to cut branches that are too thick for the tool's capacity (generally over 10mm). Ensure blades are clean and sharp.
