Reverse button for debris removal

WARNING:

 

Switch off the tool and remove 

the battery cartridge before you remove entan-
gled weeds or debris which the reverse rotation 
function can not remove.

 Failure to switch off and 

remove the battery cartridge may result in serious 

personal injury from accidental start-up.

This tool has a reverse button to change the direction of 
rotation. It is only for removing weeds and debris entan-
gled in the tool.
To reverse the rotation, tap the reverse button and pull 

the switch trigger while depressing the lock-off lever 

when the cutting tool is stopped. The speed indicators 
and ADT indicator start blinking, and the cutting tool 
rotates in reverse direction when you pull the switch 
trigger.
To return to regular rotation, release the trigger and wait 
until the cutting tool stops.
