little click. If you can see the red indicator on the upper
side of the button, it is not locked completely.
CAUTION:
• Always install the battery cartridge fully until the red
indicator cannot be seen. If not, it may accidentally fall
out of the tool, causing injury to you or someone
around you.
• Do not install the battery cartridge forcibly. If the
cartridge does not slide in easily, it is not being inserted
correctly.
Power switch action
WARNING:
• Before inserting the battery cartridge in the tool,
always check to see that the switch trigger
actuates properly and returns to the "OFF"
position when released. Do not pull the switch
trigger hard without turning the lock-off lever. This
can cause switch breakage. Operating a tool with a
switch that does not actuate properly can lead to loss
of control and serious personal injury. (Fig. 6)
Push the power button on the housing so that the tool is
powered on and power indicator lights. (Fig. 7)
To prevent the switch trigger from being accidentally
pulled, a lock-off lever is provided.
To start the tool, turn the lock-off lever and then pull the
switch trigger. Release the switch trigger to stop.
NOTE:
• After the power button is pushed and the tool is left one
minute without any operations, the tool is automatically
powered off.
Reversing switch for debris removal
WARNING:
• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
battery cartridge is removed before removing
weeds or debris entangled in the tool that could not
be removed when operated in the reverse mode.
Failure to switch off and remove the battery cartridge
may result in serious personal injury from accidental
start-up. (Fig. 8)
This tool has a reversing switch which is only provided to
change the direction of rotation so that it can be used to
remove weeds and debris entangled in the tool. To
operate the tool normally the "A" side of the switch should
be depressed.

only operate for a short period of time and automatically
shut off.
NOTICE:
• Always check the direction of rotation before operation.
• Use the reversing switch only after the tool comes to a
complete stop. Changing the direction of rotation
before the tool stops may damage it.

to 6,000 min with the speed adjusting dial.
Turn the speed adjusting dial clockwise for higher speed,
and counterclockwise for lower speed.
Battery protection system (Lithium-ion
battery with star marking) (Fig. 10)
Lithium-ion batteries with a star marking are equipped
with a protection system. This system automatically cuts
off power to the tool to extend battery life.
The tool will automatically stop during operation if the tool
and/or battery are placed under one of the following
conditions:
• Overloaded:
The tool is operated in a manner that causes it to
draw an abnormally high current.
In this situation, release the switch trigger on the tool
and stop the application that caused the tool to
become overloaded. Then pull the switch trigger
again to restart.
If the tool does not start, the battery is overheated. In
this situation, let the battery cool before pulling the
switch trigger again.
• Low battery voltage:
The remaining battery capacity is too low and the tool
will not operate. In this situation, remove and
recharge the battery.
Indication lamps (Fig. 11)
When the protection system works during the operation,
the lamps light up.
Refer to the following table for the status and action to be
taken for the indication lamp.
