Installing or removing battery cartridge
(Fig. 5)
CAUTION:
• Always switch off the tool before installing or removing
of the battery cartridge.
• Hold the tool and the battery cartridge firmly when
installing or removing battery cartridge. Failure to
hold the tool and the battery cartridge firmly may cause
them to slip off your hands and result in damage to the
tool and battery cartridge and a personal injury.
To remove the battery cartridge, slide it from the tool while
sliding the button on the front of the cartridge.
To install the battery cartridge, align the tongue on the
battery cartridge with the groove in the housing and slip it
into place. Insert it all the way until it locks in place with a
little click. If you can see the red indicator on the upper
side of the button, it is not locked completely.
CAUTION:
• Always install the battery cartridge fully until the red
indicator cannot be seen. If not, it may accidentally fall
out of the tool, causing injury to you or someone
around you.
• Do not install the battery cartridge forcibly. If the
cartridge does not slide in easily, it is not being inserted
correctly.
Power switch action
WARNING:
• Before inserting the battery cartridge in the tool,
always check to see that the switch trigger
actuates properly and returns to the "OFF"
position when released. Do not pull the switch
trigger hard without pressing in the lock-off button.
This can cause switch breakage. Operating a tool
with a switch that does not actuate properly can lead to
loss of control and serious personal injury. (Fig. 6)
To prevent the switch trigger from being accidentally
pulled, a lock-off button is provided.
To start the tool, press in the lock-off button and pull the
switch trigger. The tool speed is increased by increasing
pressure on the switch trigger. Release the switch trigger
to stop.

Reversing Switch for Debris Removal
(Fig. 7)
This tool has a reversing switch. Reversing is used only
when weeds and debris are entangled in the tool. To
operate the tool normally the "A" side of the switch should
be depressed.
If weeds and debris are jammed in the rotating head, the
tool can be reversed by depressing the "B" side of the
switch. In the reverse position, the tool only operates for a
short period of time and automatically shut off.
WARNING:
• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
battery cartridge is removed before removing
weeds or debris entangled in the tool that is not
removed by the reverse mode. Failure to switch off
and remove the battery cartridge may result in serious
personal injury from accidental start-up.
NOTICE:
• Always check the direction of rotation before operation.
• Use the reversing switch only after the tool comes to a
complete stop. Do not change the direction of rotation
while the head is still rotating, the tool may be
damaged.
Speed change (Fig. 8)
Two speed ranges can be preselected with the speed
change switch.
Flipping the speed change switch lever to the "1" position
will set the tool to the low speed range and the "2" position
will set the tool to the high speed range.
Battery/motor protection system
The battery cartridge and tool are provided with protection
functions that will automatically reduce or cut off power
when overload situations occur that may cause damage
to the tool or battery cartridge.
If the tool becomes overloaded but not locked up, a
protector is provided to reduce the revolutions to protect
the motor. In this case the two indicator lamps described
in the table below do not light or blink.
All other protection functions can be identified by the
indicator lights described in the table below. (Fig. 9)
