Product Components

The Saker 20V Cordless Hedge Trimmer and Grass Shear comes with the main unit, two interchangeable blades (long hedge trimmer blade and short grass shear blade), two 20V 1500mAh rechargeable lithium-ion batteries, and a charger.

The long blade (9.45 inches) is designed for cutting thin shoots on hedges, bushes, small trees, and ornamental plants. The short blade (4.13 inches wide) is ideal for cutting grass, weeds, and small sections of lawns. Both blades are made of SK5 steel for durability and sharpness.

Setup

1. Charge the Battery: Before first use, fully charge the lithium-ion battery. Connect the charger to a power outlet and insert the battery. The battery level indicator will show charging progress. A full charge takes approximately 2 hours.
   

   The 20V 1500mAh lithium-ion battery provides approximately 60 minutes of working time on a full charge. Monitor the battery level indicator to ensure sufficient power for your task.
2. Attach the Blade:
   

   Refer to the "How to Use" image for visual guidance. Select either the long hedge trimmer blade or the short grass shear blade depending on your task. Attach the appropriate blade by aligning it with the tool's head and pressing the blade release buttons on both sides to secure it. Ensure the blade is firmly locked in place before proceeding.

3. Insert the Battery: Slide the charged battery into the battery slot on the tool until it clicks securely into place.

Operating Instructions

1. Starting the Tool: The Saker trimmer features a double safety lock. To start, push the trigger lock-out button (usually located near the handle) and simultaneously press the main trigger. Release the trigger lock-out once the tool is running.

2. Adjusting the Head Angle (for Hedge Trimmer): The machine head can be adjusted to 3 angles (15°, 30°, and 45°) for comfortable and effective trimming in various positions and hard-to-reach areas. Use the adjustment knobs to set the desired angle.
   

   The adjustable head allows for ergonomic operation, reducing strain and customizing the cutting angle based on the terrain and plant height.

3. Trimming Hedges and Shrubs: Use the long blade for shaping and cutting back hedges, bushes, and ornamental plants. Move the trimmer smoothly and steadily along the desired cutting line.
4. Cutting Grass: Use the short blade for trimming grass in tight areas, along edges, or small lawn sections. Guide the trimmer carefully to achieve a clean cut.
5. Stopping the Tool: Release the main trigger to stop the tool. Always engage the safety lock-out when not actively trimming or when changing blades.

Maintenance

• Blade Cleaning: After each use, remove the blade (by pressing the release buttons) and clean it thoroughly to remove sap, debris, and grass clippings. A clean blade ensures sharp and long-lasting cutting performance.
• Blade Lubrication: Periodically apply a light machine oil to the blades to prevent rust and ensure smooth operation.
• Battery Care: Store batteries in a cool, dry place. Do not expose them to extreme temperatures. Recharge batteries as needed, but avoid overcharging or completely draining them for extended periods.
• General Cleaning: Wipe down the tool's body with a damp cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
• Storage: Store the trimmer and its components in a dry, secure location, preferably in its original packaging or a protective case, away from direct sunlight and moisture.
