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 

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.

 Reverse button

NOTE:

 During the reverse rotation, the tool operates 

only for a short period of time and then automatically 

stops.

NOTE:

 Once the tool is stopped, the rotation returns 

to regular direction when you start the tool again.

NOTE:

 If you tap the reverse button while the cutting 

tool is still rotating, the tool comes to stop and to be 

ready for reverse rotation.

Electronic torque control function

The tool electronically detects a sudden drop in the 

rotation speed which may cause a kickback. In this 

situation, the tool automatically stops to prevent further 

rotation of cutting tool. To restart the tool, release the 

switch trigger. Clear the cause of sudden drop in the 

rotation speed and then turn the tool on.

NOTE:

 This function is not a preventive measure for 

kickbacks.

ASSEMBLY

WARNING:

 

Always be sure that the tool is 

switched off and battery cartridge is removed

 Failure to 

switch off and remove the battery cartridge may result 

in serious personal injury from accidental start-up.

WARNING:

 

Never start the tool unless it is 

completely assembled.

 Operation of the tool in a 

partially assembled state may result in serious per-

sonal injury from accidental start-up.
