Before Using

Charging Procedure
The battery charger supplied matches the lithium-ion battery installed in the tool. Do not use other battery chargers.
The lithium-ion battery is protected against deep discharging. When the battery is empty, a protective circuit will automatically switch OFF the machine. The blade will no longer move.
Charge the battery up to 65 minutes then use it until it runs down (i.e. the tools starts to operate slowly). Recharge for up to 65 minutes again before resuming operation.

WARNING! Continued and excessive overuse of the ON/OFF trigger switch can permanently damage the lithium-ion battery.

CAUTION! This charger does not automatically turn off when the battery is fully charged. Please take care not to leave the pruner plugged into the charger.
Switch off or unplug the charger at the mains when charging is complete.

NOTE: The charge level indicator LED light will illuminate red when the charger is plugged in and is charging the cordless pruner. The LED light will turn green when the pruner is fully charged.
The charging process starts as soon as the charger is plugged into both the proper electrical outlet and the tool.

During the charging procedure, the handle and the housing of the tool will feel slightly warm to the touch. This is normal.
When no further use is planned for an extended period of time, disconnect the battery charger from the outlet and the unit.
Do not use the tool during the charging procedure.

Battery Charging
The length of service between each charging varies depending on the type of work you are doing. The battery in this pruner has been designed to provide maximum trouble-free life. However, like all batteries, it will eventually wear out. To obtain the longest possible battery life, we suggest the following:

Store and charge your cordless pruner in a cool area. Temperatures above or below normal room temperature will shorten battery life.
Never store the cordless pruner with the battery in a discharged condition. Recharge the unit immediately after it is discharged.
All batteries gradually lose their charge. The higher the temperature is, the faster they lose their charge. If you store your cordless pruner for long periods of time without using it, recharge the battery every 6 months. This will extend battery life.

NOTE: The cordless pruner has been shipped in a low charge condition and should be fully charged before use.

Plug the charger adapter into an appropriate AC power outlet. Connect the AC adapter charger plug into the charging socket of the cordless pruner to start charging (Fig. 4).
The LED charging indicator will illuminate red during charging. After the unit is fully charged, the charging indicator will turn green (Fig. 5).
The battery will take approximately 65 minutes to charge. Charging time may vary due to the level of charge left in the battery and the ambient temperature.

Operation

IMPORTANT! The product is intended for light-duty pruning of shrubs and hedges for residential properties.
NOTE: Charge the battery up to 65 minutes then use it until it runs down (i.e. the tool will only slowly operate). Recharge for up to 65 minutes again before resuming operation.
WARNING! The blades continue to move for a few seconds after the tool is switched OFF. Turn OFF the tool and wait until the blades come to a complete stop before adjusting or cleaning.
CAUTION! Wear protective gloves while working with the pruner. Never touch the blade or blade rail while the tool is in operation and be aware of the sharp edges even when the pruner is not in use.

Starting + Stopping

To power ON, push and hold the safety lock button with your fingers, while pressing the On/Off trigger switch with your index finger. Once the On/Off switch is pressed, the removable blade will move down and the two blades will close to cut (Fig. 6).
NOTE: The safety lock button reduces the risk of accidental starting.
Release the On/Off switch, the two blades will open (Fig. 6).

CAUTION! Always ensure proper footing and balance in a clean and clear work environment before switching on the cordless pruner.
NOTE: The pruner will stop working when the voltage is lower than 3 Volts. Please recharge as soon as possible if the pruner stops working.

LED lights
The pruner is equipped with two LED lights under the blades on both sides to provide additional lighting for operation in low light conditions. The LED lights will turned on when the safety lock button is pressed and turn off when the safety lock button is released (Fig. 7).

Trimming Tips
The cordless pruner can be used to remove fresh blooms from the garden; also great for pruning overgrowth, dead and overlapping stems and twigs, as well as thin and weak growth. Follow the tips below for operation.

Never cut too close to the bud, so the wound can heal properly.
Always make the cut above 0.3 inch (8 mm) from the bud (Fig. 8).
The cut should slope away from the bud, so the rain can run off (Fig. 9).
When removing the entire stem, cut back to the point where it branched (Fig. 10).
Cut branches one by one, as shown (Fig. 11).

Maintenance

WARNING! Always switch the product off and let the product cool down before performing inspection, maintenance, and cleaning work.

If the cordless pruner requires cleaning, do not use solvents to clean it. Only use a moistened soft cloth. Never let any liquid get inside the tool; and never immerse any part of the tool into any liquid.
Apply oil around the center bolt and open and close the tool about 10 times to work it in. Use the steel wool to rub the oil over the cutting surfaces. Spray the tool with alcohol and wipe with a paper towel.
Inspect the product before each use for worn and damaged parts. Do not operate it if you find broken and worn parts.

Blade Maintenance
To ensure years of efficient and trouble-free operation, blade cleaning should be performed if sap and debris have built-up, or if you live in an area where the soil is sandy. Cleaning unusually heavy deposits may require removal of the blade.
NOTE: Snow Joe® + Sun Joe® will not be held responsible for any damage or injuries caused by repair of the pruner by an unauthorized person or by mishandling of the trimmer.

Keep the cutting blades clean and free of debris. Remove trimmings.
Keep the blades sharp. Have a worn or damaged cutting device replaced with a new one of the same type by a qualified specialist. Spare parts may be ordered online at sunjoe.com or via phone by contacting the Snow Joe® + Sun Joe® customer service center at 1-866-SNOWJOE (1-866-766-9563).
To replace the blade, see page 6 for instructions.

Blade Sharpening

WARNING! Always take extra care, especially when your hand may be facing the cutting edge.
Bypass pruners will generally only have one blade, the lower part being the counter blade which should never require sharpening.

The cut of a bypass tool is achieved by the blade precisely passing by the counter blade. It therefore follows that you should never sharpen the flat side of the blade. If steel is removed from here, the two parts will no longer meet precisely and the tool will fail to cut. You must only sharpen on the outside or bevelled side of the blade.

To sharpen your cordless pruner, hold the open pruner flat in one hand and with the other hand place the sharpener at a 15 degree angle along the bevelled side of the blade (Fig. 12).
NOTE: Be careful to not sharpen at too steep an angle as this could damage the edge of the blade.
Move the sharpener in one direction only, with smooth strokes from base to end 4 to 5 times.
WARNING! Do not over-sharpen. Be sure to test blades repeatedly throughout the sharpening process to prevent over sharpening.
Turn the pruner over so the flat side of the blade is facing up and slide the sharpener flush along the unbeveled edge to remove burrs created by sharpening the cutting blade.
A bench vise can also be used to hold the tool during sharpening, taking care not to over tighten the vise which can bend the tool.
WARNING! Minimize coating loss. Stay to the edge of the blade when sharpening blades with low-friction or titanium coating to minimize the loss of coating.

Storage
When the tool will not be used for several months, proceed as follows:

Fully charge the battery.
Clean the product as describe above.
Make sure that the blade lock knob is in the lock position, then assemble the blade cover over the blades (Fig. 13).

SUN-JOE-PJ3600C-Cordless-Rechargeable-Power-Pruner-14

Store the tool in a secure and dry location. The storage temperature must always remains in the range of 41°F (5°C) to 104°F (40°C).
Before using the tool after prolonged storage, fully recharge the battery.

Battery Caution + Disposal
Always dispose of your battery pack according to federal, state, and local regulations. Contact a recycling agency in your area for recycling locations.
CAUTION! Even discharged battery packs contain some energy. Before disposing, use electrical tape to cover the terminals to prevent the battery pack from shorting, which could cause a fire or explosion.

WARNING! To reduce the risk of injury or explosion, never burn or incinerate a battery pack even if it is damaged, dead, or completely discharged. When burned, toxic fumes and materials are emitted into the surrounding atmosphere.

Batteries vary according to device. Consult your manual for specific information.
Install only new batteries of the same type in your product (where applicable).
Failure to insert batteries in the correct polarity, as indicated in the battery compartment or manual, may shorten the life of the batteries or cause batteries to leak.
Do not mix old and new batteries.
Do not mix Alkaline, Standard (Carbon-Zinc), or Rechargeable (Nickel Cadmium, Nickel Metal Hydride, or Lithium-Ion) batteries.
Do not dispose of batteries in fire. The cell of the battery may explode.
Batteries should be recycled or disposed of as per state and local guidelines.
