OPERATION

WARNING:

Extreme care must be taken when using a blade attach-

ment to ensure safe operation. Read the safety informa-

tion for safe operation when using a blade attachment 

and refer to the safety rules and instructions in your at-

tachment manual. Never use a brush cutter attachment 

with this power head. Improper operation of a blade or 

any attachment could result in serious injury.

WARNING:

Always hold the power head away from the body keeping 

clearance between the body and the tool. Any contact 

with an attachment cutting head can result in burns and/

or other serious personal injury.

MAINTENANCE

WARNING:

When servicing, use only identical replacement parts. 

Use of any other parts can create a hazard or cause 

product damage.

WARNING:

Always wear eye protection with side shields marked to 

comply with ANSI Z87.1, along with hearing protection. 

Head protection may also be required depending on 

the type of attachment used and as prescribed in the 

attachment’s Operator’s Manual. Failure to do so could 

result in objects being thrown into your eyes and other 

possible serious injuries.

WARNING:

To avoid serious personal injury, always remove the bat-

tery pack from the tool when cleaning or performing any 

maintenance.

GENERAL MAINTENANCE

Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts. Most 

plastics are susceptible to damage from various types of 

commercial solvents and may be damaged by their use. Use 

clean cloths to remove dirt, dust, oil, grease, etc.

WARNING:

Do not at any time let brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum-

based products, penetrating oils, etc., come in contact 

with plastic parts. Chemicals can damage, weaken or 

destroy plastic which can result in serious personal injury.

Only the parts shown on the parts list are intended to be 
repaired or replaced by the customer. All other parts should 
be replaced at an Authorized Service Center.

CLEANING THE POWER HEAD

  Stop the motor and remove the battery pack.

  Clean dirt and debris from the power head using a damp 

cloth with a mild detergent.

NOTICE:

Do not use any strong detergents on the plastic housing or 

the handle. They can be damaged by certain aromatic oils 

such as pine and lemon, and by solvents such as kerosene. 

STORING THE POWER HEAD 

  Remove the battery pack from the power head before 

storing.

  Clean all foreign material from the power head. 

  Store it in a place that is inaccessible to children. 

  Keep away from corrosive agents such as garden chemi-
