Power switch action
WARNING:
• Before inserting the battery packs into the tool, always check to see that the switch trigger
actuates properly and returns to the "OFF" position when released.
Operating a tool with a switch that does not actuate properly can lead to loss of control and serious
personal injury.
To prevent the switch trigger from being accidentally pulled, a lock-off lever is provided.
To start the tool, grasp the rear handle (the lock-off lever is released by the grasp) and then pull the
switch trigger.
To stop the tool, release the switch trigger.

NOTE:
If the nylon cord does not feed out while bumping the head, rewind/replace the nylon cord by following
the procedures described under.
