Only one side of the safety button can be pressed at once, so don’t try to squeeze them both at the same time! You can release the safety button once the trimmer has started, just continue to press the start trigger.

The safety button should stay pressed in while you’re pressing the safety trigger. If it pops out, the machine will cut out.

If you’ve worked your way through the above steps and your HT05 is still not working, it may be an issue with your charger. There are a few ways you can check if there’s an issue with the charger.

When the battery is put on the charging stand, a green light should illuminate on the stand and pulsating green lights should show on the battery while it charges. If there are no lights illuminated, continue to the next step.

If the battery is fitting loosely in the charging stand, there will be excessive movement when the battery is plugged in and it may not charge correctly. Get in touch with us as we may need to send you a replacement part.

Check to see if the charger gets warm when it is charging the battery. Check for signs of damage to the charger cable. If it’s ripped or frayed, or if the terminal pins are broken on the charger, you need a replacement charger to ensure your trimmer works safely. You can buy a replacement charger online.

Check for signs of damage to the battery terminals. If you can’t see anything wrong with your charger but it’s still not working, try plugging it into another socket as it may be an issue with the mains.

If you have a spare charger try that one instead.
