Troubleshooting

Attachment not engaging with power head

Ensure the power head is compatible with the QUIK-LOK™ system. Check both the attachment and power head connection points for debris and clean them. Realign and push firmly until you hear a click.

Blades not cutting effectively

Verify the attachment is properly seated. Ensure branches are within the 19mm cutting capacity. Clean and sharpen the blades if they appear dull or damaged. Check for any obstructions around the blade mechanism.

Excessive vibration during operation

Confirm the attachment is securely locked onto the power head. Inspect the blades for any damage or imbalance. Ensure the power head itself is functioning correctly.
