IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR BATTERY CHARGERS
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS: This manual contains important safety instructions for battery chargers.
WARNING: Before using the charger, read all instructions and cautionary markings on the charger, battery pack, and product using the battery pack.
WARNING: Shock hazard. Do not allow any liquid to get inside the charger.
WARNING: Burn hazard. To reduce the risk of injury, charge only designated Black+Decker batteries. Other types of batteries may burst causing personal injury and damage.

CAUTION
Under certain conditions, with the charger plugged into the power supply, the charger can be shorted by foreign material. Foreign materials of a conductive nature such as, but not limited to, steel wool, aluminium foil, or any buildup of metallic particles should be kept away from charger cavities. Always unplug the charger from the power supply when there is no battery pack in the cavity. Unplug the charger before attempting to clean it.

WARNING

DO NOT attempt to charge the battery pack with any chargers other than the ones in this manual. The charger and battery pack are specifically designed to work together.
These chargers are not intended for any uses other than charging designated Black+Decker rechargeable batteries. Any other uses may result in a risk of fire, electric shock or electrocution.
Do not expose the charger to rain or snow.
Pull by plug rather than cord when disconnecting the charger. This will reduce the risk of damage to the electric plug and cord.
Make sure that the cord is located so that it will not be stepped on, tripped over, or otherwise subjected to damage or stress.
Do not use an extension cord unless it is necessary. Use of improper extension cords could result in risk of fire, electric shock, or electrocution.
An extension cord must have adequate wire size (AWG or American Wire Gauge) for safety. The smaller the gauge number of the wire, the greater the capacity of the cable, that is 16 gauge has more capacity than 18 gauge. When using more than one extension to make up the total length, be sure each extension contains at least the minimum wire size.
Do not place any object on top of the charger or place the charger on a soft surface that might block the ventilation slots and result in excessive internal heat. Place the charger in a position away from any heat source. The charger is ventilated through slots in the top and the bottom of the housing.
Do not mount the harger on the all or permanently affix the harger to any surface. The charger is intended to ube used on a flat, stable surface (i.e., tabletop, benchtop).
Do not operate chargers with damaged cords or plugs — have them replaced immediately.
Do not operate the charger if it has received a sharp blow, been dropped, or otherwise damaged in any way. Take it to an authorized service centre.
Do not disassemble the charger; take it to an authorized service centre when service or repair is required. Incorrect reassembly may result in a risk of electric shock, electrocution or fire.
Disconnect the charger from the outlet before attempting any cleaning. This will reduce the risk of electric shock. Removing the battery pack will not reduce this risk.
NEVER attempt to connect 2 chargers.
The charger is designed to operate on standard household electrical power (120 Volts).
Do not attempt to use it on any other voltage.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR BATTERY PACKS
WARNING: For safe operation, read this manual and manuals originally supplied with the tool before using the charger.
The battery pack is not fully charged out of the carton. Before using the battery pack and charger, read the safety instructions below. Then follow the charging procedures outlined.
Read all Instructions
Do not incinerate the battery pack even if it is severely damaged or is completely worn out. The battery pack can explode in a fire. Toxic fumes and materials are created when battery packs are burned.
Do not charge or use battery in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Inserting or removing the battery from the charger may ignite the dust or fumes.
If battery contents come into contact with the skin, immediately wash the area with mild soap and water. If battery liquid gets into the eye, rinse water over the open eye for 15 minutes or until irritation ceases. If medical attention is needed, the battery electrolyte for Li-ion batteries is composed of a mixture of liquid organic carbonates and lithium salts.
Contents of opened battery cells may cause respiratory irritation. Provide fresh air. If symptoms persist, seek medical attention.
WARNING: Burn hazard. Battery liquid may be flammable if exposed to a spark or flame.
Charge the battery packs only in BLACK+DECKER chargers.
DO NOT splash or immerse in water or other liquids. This may cause premature cell failure.
Do not store or use the tool and battery pack in locations where the temperature may reach or exceed 105°F (40˚C) (such as outside sheds or metal buildings in summer).
WARNING: Never attempt to open the battery pack for any reason. If the battery pack case is cracked or damaged, do not insert it into the charger. Do not crush, drop or damage the battery pack. Do not use a battery pack or charger that has received a sharp blow, been dropped, run over or damaged in any way (i.e., pierced with a nail, hit with a hammer, stepped on). Damaged battery packs should be returned to a service centre for recycling.
WARNING: Fire hazard. Do not store or carry batteries so that metal objects can contact exposed battery terminals. For example, do not place batteries in aprons, pockets, tool boxes, product kit boxes, drawers, etc., with loose nails, screws, keys, etc.
Transporting batteries can cause fires if the battery terminals inadvertently come in contact with conductive materials such as keys, coins, hand tools and the like.
The US Department of Transportation Hazardous Material Regulations (HMR) prohibit transporting batteries in commerce or on aeroplanes (i.e., packed in suitcases and carry-on luggage) UNLESS they are properly protected from short circuits. So when transporting individual batteries, make sure that the battery terminals are protected and well insulated from materials that could contact them and cause a short circuit.

NOTE
LI-ION batteries should not be put in checked baggage.

Storage Recommendations

The best storage place is one that is cool and dry away from direct sunlight and excess heat or cold.

LI-ION Battery Packs and Chargers

Charging Procedure
The standard charger provided will charge a fully depleted battery in about 5 hours.

Plug the charger into an appropriate outlet before inserting the battery pack.
Slide the charger onto the battery pack as shown in figure B.
The green LED will flash indicating that the battery is being charged.
The completion of the charge is indicated by the green LED remaining continuously. The pack is fully charged and may be used at this time or left on the charger.
Recharge discharged batteries as soon as possible after use or battery life may be greatly diminished.

Leaving the battery in the charger
The charger and battery pack can be left connected with the green LED glowing indefinitely. The charger will keep the battery pack fresh and fully charged.

Important Charging Notes

Longest life and best performance can be obtained if the battery pack is charged when the air temperature is between 60°F and 80°F (16°- 27°C). DO NOT charge the battery pack in an air temperature below +40°F (+4.5°C), or above +105°F (+40.5°C). This is important and will prevent serious damage to the battery pack.
The charger and battery pack may become warm to the touch while charging. This is a normal condition and does not indicate a problem. To facilitate the cooling of the battery pack after use, avoid placing
the charger or battery pack in a warm environment such as in a metal shed, or an uninsulated trailer.
If the battery pack does not charge properly:
- Check the current at the receptacle by plugging in a lamp or other appliance.
- Check to see if the receptacle is connected to a light switch which turns the power off when you turn out the lights.
- Move the charger and battery pack to a location where the surrounding air temperature is approximately 60°F – 80°F (16° – 27°C).
- If charging problems persist, take the tool, battery pack and charger to your local service centre.
The battery pack should be recharged when it fails to produce sufficient power on jobs that were easily done previously. DO NOT CONTINUE to use under these conditions. Follow the charging procedure. You may also charge a partially used pack whenever you desire with no adverse effect on the battery pack.
Foreign materials of a conductive nature such as, but not limited to, steel wool, aluminium foil, or any buildup of metallic particles should be kept away from charger cavities. Always unplug the charger from the power supply when there is no battery pack in the cavity. Unplug the charger before attempting to clean it.
Do not freeze or immerse the charger in water or any other liquid.
WARNING: Shock hazard. Do not allow any liquid to get inside the charger. Never attempt to open the battery pack for any reason. If the plastic housing of the battery pack breaks or cracks, return it to a service centre for recycling.

Installing and Removing the Battery Pack
WARNING: Make certain the lock-off button is engaged to prevent switch actuation before removing or installing the battery.

To install a battery pack

To remove the battery pack: Depress the battery release button in the back of the battery pack and pull the battery pack out of the trimmer.

ASSEMBLY and Adjust installing the guard

WARNING
remove the battery before attempting to attach the guard, edge guide or handle. NEVER OPERATE THE TRIMMER WITHOUT THE GUARD FIRMLY IN PLACE. The guard must always be on the TRIMMER to protect the user.

Turn the trimmer upside down so that you are looking down at the spool cap (8).
Remove the screw from the guard with a phillips screwdriver.
Turn the guard (7) upside down and slide it fully onto the motor housing (5).
Make sure the tabs (10) on the guard engage the ribs (11) on the motor housing as shown in figure D. The locking tab (24) should have snapped into the housing slot (25).
Continue to slide the guard on until you hear it “snap” into place.
Using a phillips screwdriver, insert the guard screw as shown in Figure E to complete the guard assembly.
Once the guard is installed, remove the covering from the line cut-off blade, located on the edge of the guard.

Attaching the Auxiliary Handle

To attach the handle (3), press the buttons (12) on both sides of the upper housing as shown in Figure F.
Position the handle as shown in Figure G, matching up the grooved side of the handle with the grooved button.
Partially push the handle on so that it will hold the buttons in when you release them with your hand.
Push the handle completely onto the housing and position it slightly until it “snaps” into place (figure H).
To adjust the handle up or down, press the button (13) and raise or lower the handle.
The handle should be adjusted so that your front arm is straight when the trimmer is in the working position.

HEIGHT adjustment

CAUTION: Adjust the length of the trimmer to obtain proper working positions as shown in figure J.
The overall height of the trimmer can be adjusted by loosening the collar (4) and rotating it in the direction of the arrow shown in Figure I.
Move the upper housing straight up or down. When the desired height is achieved, tighten the collar by rotating it opposite of the opposite direction shown in Figure I.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: Always use proper eye protection that conforms to ANSI Z87.1 (CAN/CSA Z94.3) while operating this power trimmer.

WARNING: Remove the battery before making any assembly, adjustments, or changing accessories. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the trimmer accidentally.
CAUTION: Before you begin trimming, only use the appropriate type of cutting line.
CAUTION: Inspect the area to be trimmed and remove any wire, cord, or string-like objects that could become entangled in the rotating line or spool.
Be particularly careful to avoid any wire that might be bent outwardly into the path of the trimmer, such as barbs at the base of a chain link fence.

Switching on and off

To switch the trimmer on, push the lock-off button (shown in the inset, figure J) across from either side and then squeeze the trigger switch.
To switch the trimmer off, release the trigger switch.

OPERATING THE TRIMMER

With the unit on, angle the unit and slowly swing the trimmer side to side as shown in Figure J.
Maintain a cutting angle of 5° to 10° as shown in Figure J1. Do not exceed 10° (figure J2). Cut with the tip of the line. To keep a distance from hard surfaces use an edge guide (6).
Maintain a minimum distance of 24 inches (609.6 mm) between the guard and your feet as shown in Figure J1. To achieve this distance adjust the overall height of the trimmer as shown in Figure I.

CONVERT TO EDGING MODE
WARNING: When being used as an Edger, stones, pieces of metal and other objects can be thrown out at high speed by the line. The trimmer and guard are designed to reduce the danger. However, MAKE SURE that other persons and pets are at least 100 feet (30m) away.

To operate as a maintenance edger, turn the collar (4) as shown in Figure I.
Hold the metal shaft and rotate the lower housing 180° until the trimmer is in the position shown in Figure K.
Turn the collar back until tight.
Position the trimmer with the wire guide (6) along the surface as shown in figure L.
Return to the trimming position by loosening the collar and rotating the lower housing back 180°.
Turn the collar until tight. When using the trimmer, retract the wire edge guide to the original position, out of the way.

Cutting Line / LINE FEEDING
Your trimmer uses a .065-inch (1.65 mm) diameter, ROUND nylon line. During use, the tips of the nylon lines will become frayed and worn and the special self-feeding spool will automatically feed and trim a fresh length of line. Do not bump on the ground in an attempt to feed the line or for any other purposes. Cutting lines will wear faster and require more feeding if the cutting or edging is done along sidewalks or other abrasive surfaces or heavier weeds are being cut.

REPLACEMENT ACCESSORIES
CAUTION: Before you begin trimming, only use the appropriate type of cutting line. Use BLACK+DECKER replacement spool Model No. AF-100, and replacement cap RC-100. Reload the nylon line (either bulk or pre-wound replacement spool) as shown in this manual.

USE ONLY .065 inch (1.65 mm) DIAMETER ROUND NYLON MONOFILAMENT LINE.
Do not use serrated or heavier gauge lines, as they will overload the motor cause overheating, and will not feed properly. This line is available at your local dealer or authorized service centre.
Other replacement parts (guards, spool caps, etc.) are available through BLACK+DECKER service centres. To find your local service location call: 1-800-544-6986 or visit www.blackanddecker.com.
WARNING: The use of any accessory not recommended by BLACK+DECKER for use with this trimmer could be hazardous.

REPLACING THE SPOOL

Remove the battery from the trimmer.
Depress the tabs (14) and remove the spool cap (8) from the spool housing (15) in the trimmer head (figure M).
For best results, replace the spool with BLACK+DECKER model # AF-100.
Grasp the empty spool with one hand and the spool housing with the other hand and pull the spool out.
If lever (16) in the base of the housing becomes dislodged, replace it in the position shown in Figure N before inserting a new spool into the housing.
Remove any dirt and grass from the spool and housing.
Unfasten the end of the cutting line and guide the line into the eyelet (18) Figure O.
Take the new spool and push it onto the boss (17) (figure N) in the housing. Rotate the spool slightly until it is seated. The line should protrude approximately 5-3/8 inches (136mm) from the housing.
Align the tabs on the spool cap with the slots (19) in the housing (figure O).
Push the cap onto the housing until it snaps securely into place.
CAUTION: To avoid trimmer damage, if the cutting line protrudes beyond the trimming blade, cut it off so that it just reaches the blade.

REWINDING SPOOL FROM BULK LINE (use only .065 in. ROUND diameter line)
Bulk line is also available for purchase from your local retailer. NOTE: Hand- wound spools from the bulk line are likely to become tangled more frequently than BLACK+DECKER factory wound spools. For best results, factory wound spools are recommended. To install the bulk line, follow the steps below:

Remove the battery from the trimmer.
Remove the empty spool from the trimmer as described in “REPLACING THE SPOOL”.
Remove any remaining cutting line from the spool.
Make a fold at the end of the cutting line at about 3/4 inch (19mm) (20). Feed the cutting line into one of the line anchoring slots (21) as shown in figure P.
Insert the 3/4 inch (19mm) end of the bulk line into the hole (22) in the spool adjacent to the slot as shown in Figure Q. Make sure the line is pulled tight against the spool as shown in Figure Q.
Wind the cutting line onto the spool in the direction of the arrow on the spool. Make sure to wind the line on neatly and in layers. Do not crisscross (figure R).
When the wound-cutting line reaches the recesses (23), cut the line. (figure Q).
Fit the spool onto the trimmer as described in “REPLACING THE SPOOL”.

The RBRC™ Seal
The RBRC™ (Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation) Seal on the LI-ION battery (or battery pack) indicates that the costs to recycle the battery (or battery pack) at the end of its useful life have already been paid by BLACK+DECKER. RBRC™ in cooperation with BLACK+DECKER and other battery users, has established programs in the United States to facilitate the collection of spent LI-ION batteries. Help protect
our environment and conserve natural resources by returning the spent LI-ION battery to an authorized BLACK+DECKER service centre or your local retailer for recycling. You may also contact your local recycling centre for information on where to drop off the spent battery.RBRC™ is a registered trademark of the Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation.

Maintenance

WARNING : To avoid serious injury, remove the battery from the trimmer before performing any maintenance.
CAUTION : To assure product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs, maintenance and adjustment should be performed by authorized service centres or other qualified service organizations, always using identical replacement parts.

Keep the air intake slots clean to avoid overheating.
Your trimmer line can dry out over time. To keep your line in top condition, store spare pre-wound spools or bulk lines in a plastic, sealable bag with a tablespoon of water.
Plastic parts may be cleaned by using a mild soap and a damp rag.
The line cutter on the edge of the guard can dull over time. It is recommended you periodically touch up the sharpness of the blade with a file.

Troubleshooting

TRIMMER runs slowly
Remove the Battery from the tool.
Check that the spool housing can rotate freely. Carefully clean it if necessary.
Check that the cutting line does not protrude more than approximately 5-3/8 inches (136mm) from the spool. If it does, cut it off so that it just reaches the line trimming blade.

The automatic line feed does not work

Remove the Battery from the tool.
Remove the spool cap.
Pull the cutting line until it protrudes approximately 5-3/8 inches (136mm) from the spool. If the insufficient cutting line is left on the spool, install a new spool of the cutting line.
Ensure that the line is not crisscrossed on the spool as detailed in Figure R. If it is, unwind the cutting line, then wind it back on the spool neatly so that the lines do not cross.
Ensure the beginning of the cutting line is pulled tight against the spool as shown in figure Q.
Align the tabs on the spool cap with the cutouts in the housing.
Push the spool cap onto the housing until it snaps securely into place.
If the cutting line protrudes beyond the trimming blade, cut it off so that it just reaches the blade.
If the automatic line feed still does not work or the spool is jammed, try the following suggestions:
Carefully clean the spool and housing.
Remove the spool and check if the lever in the spool housing can move freely.
Remove the spool and unwind the cutting line, then wind it on neatly again. Replace the spool into the housing.
