When checking the battery level
NOTE
○ The battery must be mounted to the main body and the
trigger of the main handle must be pulled, otherwise the
LED will not light up, even though the selector button is
pressed.
○ When using a back pack power supply (BL36200),
please check the battery level on the battery level display
of the back pack power supply.
For details, please see the BL36200 instruction manual.
During use
WARNING
○ To prevent accidents, make sure there are no people in
the work area.
○ Use protective goggles during work to prevent injury
from twigs and wood chips.
○ Do not use to tool to cut wire, metal plates or other hard
objects. The tool could be damaged and cause injury.
CAUTION
○ Use a pair of pruning shears to cut thick branches before
using the hedge trimmer.
Do not force the tool to prevent it from breaking.
○ Stop the tool immediately if the blade stalls against a too
heavy branch. Do not allow the motor to seize up as it
could damage the motor.
○ Use a sturdy ladder or step ladder when cutting tall
garden trees.
○ Use only for cutting shrub.
NOTE
○ Lubricate (using sewing machine oil, mineral oil, etc.)
the blade before starting and then every hour. Use an
adequate amount of oil and wipe away excess oil.
○ During work (for example, when taking rests) do not
leave the tool in a place exposed to direct sunlight or
high temperature. This will prevent proper cooling and
could result in damage.
○ Do not use the tool for work that exceeds its capacity.
Such operation could cause the motor to lock up or slow
down and will damage it.
○ Do not use the tool for cutting the lawn or weeds. Grass
or weeds could stick to the blade.
○ Cut thick branches by gently pressing the blades against
the branch.
CAUTION ON LITHIUM-ION BATTERY
To extend the lifetime, the lithium-ion battery equips with the
protection function to stop the output.
In the cases of 1 to 3 described below, when using this
product, even if you are pulling the switch, the motor may
stop. This is not the trouble but the result of protection
function.
1. When the battery power remaining runs out, the motor
stops.
In such a case, charge it up immediately.
2. If the tool is overloaded, the motor may stop. In this
case, release the switch of tool and eliminate causes of
overloading. After that, you can use it again.
3. If the battery is overheated under overload work, the
battery power may stop.
In this case, stop using the battery and let the battery
cool. After that, you can use it again.
Furthermore, please heed the following warning and caution.
WARNING
In order to prevent any battery leakage, heat generation,
smoke emission, explosion and ignition beforehand, please
be sure to heed the following precautions.
1. Make sure that swarf and dust do not collect on the
battery.
○ During work make sure that swarf and dust do not fall on
the battery.
○ Make sure that any swarf and dust falling on the power
tool during work do not collect on the battery.
○ Do not store an unused battery in a location exposed to
swarf and dust.
○ Before storing a battery, remove any swarf and dust that
may adhere to it and do not store it together with metal
parts (screws, nails, etc.).
2. Do not pierce battery with a sharp object such as a
nail, strike with a hammer, step on, throw or subject the
battery to severe physical shock.
3. Do not use an apparently damaged or deformed battery.
4. Do not use the battery in reverse polarity.
5. Do not connect directly to an electrical outlets or car
cigarette lighter sockets.
6. Do not use the battery for a purpose other than those
specifi ed.
7. If the battery charging fails to complete even when a
specifi ed recharging time has elapsed, immediately stop
further recharging.
8. Do not put or subject the battery to high temperatures or
high pressure such as into a microwave oven, dryer, or
high pressure container.
9. Keep away from fi re immediately when leakage or foul
odor are detected.
10. Do not use in a location where strong static electricity
generates.
11. If there is battery leakage, foul odor, heat generated,
discolored or deformed, or in any way appears abnormal
during use, recharging or storage, immediately remove it
from the equipment or battery charger, and stop use.
CAUTION
1. If liquid leaking from the battery gets into your eyes,
do not rub your eyes and wash them well with fresh
clean water such as tap water and contact a doctor
immediately.
If left untreated, the liquid may cause eye-problems.
2. If liquid leaks onto your skin or clothes, wash well with
clean water such as tap water immediately.
There is a possibility that this can cause skin irritation.
3. If you fi nd rust, foul odor, overheating, discolor,
deformation, and/or other irregularities when using the
battery for the fi rst time, do not use and return it to your
supplier or vendor.
WARNING
If an electrically conductive foreign object enters the
terminals of the lithium ion battery, a short-circuit may occur
resulting in the risk of fi re. Please observe the following
matters when storing the battery.
○ Do not place electrically conductive cuttings, nails,
steel wire, copper wire or other wire in the storage
case.
○ Either install the battery in the power tool or store
by securely pressing into the battery cover until the
ventilation holes are concealed to prevent short-
circuits (See Fig. 1).
