Exercise Your Battery - Do not leave your battery dormant for long periods of time. We recommend using the battery at least once every two to three weeks. If a battery has not been used for a long period of time, perform the new power tool battery break in procedure described above.

Strangely enough, I experienced the same problem with the blades when using the strimmer’s edging function. Even though they were being used on grass, which the strimming function manages to do just fine, the blades seem to snap much more easily when edging. The results were the same when I used the strimmer on longer grass. It left behind a neat, clean cut and didn’t clog up in the damper areas of my garden.To start with, the shaft is adjustable between 95cm and 115cm, which is handy if people of varying heights are going to be using the strimmer. You can adjust the handle as well, simply by pulling a lever. The head can be adjusted too – it rotates 180 degrees. Thanks everyone....it arrived today.....have charged the Makita 1835 and running as we speak...great service......hopefully we will do more business.....I may get another battery. Preventing the Memory Effect - Keep your cordless drill batteries healthy by fully charging and then fully discharging it at least once every two to three weeks. Exceptions to the rule are Li-ion batteries which do not suffer from the memory effect. Just like all other Terratek tools, this strimmer sports the brand’s signature orange and grey colour palette. Visually, it looks like a sturdy and solid tool, and its multiple design features make it appear even more impressive. Even though the trimmer comes in two parts, I realised I can hang the whole thing up without taking it apart. There’s a handy hanger on the handle part of the trimmer, and so long as you’ve got around 2 metres clearance underneath, you can hang the whole assembly up on a hook! It’ll save a lot of space in the shed.

Hi, Just letting you know that we recieved the batteries today. Thanks for the service that you have provided to me. Thanks

The immediate difference between this trimmer and the rest of the competition is that it’s corded. It’s a mains powered 550 Watt tool with an enormous 10 m cable, so it’s got more reach than you might initially think. Since these were the smallest strimmer batteries I tested, I didn’t expect much in terms of battery life. However, I ended up being pleasantly surprised – each battery gave me about 30 minutes of strimming time. Combined, this allowed me to strim for an hour in total, which was longer than any of the other strimmers I tested.
