FAQs

What type of battery does the trimmer use?

The Ryobi 18V ONE+ HP Cordless Whisper 38cm Grass Trimmer uses Ryobi ONE+ 18V batteries. These are sold separately.

How do I replace the trimmer line?

Refer to the owner's manual for specific instructions. Generally, you'll need to remove the spool, wind new line onto it, and reassemble the spool.

Can I use a different line thickness?

Using the recommended 2.0mm line is best for optimal performance.

How do I store the trimmer?

Remove the battery and store the trimmer in a dry, covered location. Keep it away from extreme temperatures and direct sunlight.

What should I do if the trimmer line breaks frequently?

Check the type of grass you are trimming; harder grasses may cause more frequent breaks. Ensure you're not trimming against hard surfaces like concrete, and that the line is feeding correctly. Consider replacing the spool.

How do I clean the trimmer?

Use a damp cloth to wipe down the exterior of the trimmer and the trimmer head. Remove any debris from the cutting head.

Is the trimmer waterproof?

The trimmer is not waterproof. Avoid using it in wet conditions or rain. Protect it from moisture.

Troubleshooting

Trimmer won't start.

Ensure the battery is fully charged and properly inserted. Check the power switch and make sure it is in the 'on' position.

Trimmer line is not advancing.

Check if the line is broken or tangled. Tap the bump-feed spool on the ground to advance the line. Replace the spool if the line is depleted.

Trimmer is cutting unevenly.

Ensure the trimmer head is level with the ground during operation. Check the line length and adjust if necessary.

Trimmer is losing power.

Check the battery charge level. If the battery is low, recharge or replace it. Clean the trimmer head to remove any obstructions.
