Application
For formwork and surface
vibrating operations;
Commonly used in precast con-
crete construction, small pours
that require a minimal amount of
vibration, patching and repairing
work with precise operation.
For vibrations at larger pours;
Ideal for pours with a greater sur-
face area, such as construction
joints, slab consolidation, where
the operator moves around to
cover the entire area.
NOTE: The mode you select will be saved automat-
ically when the tool is powered off. The tool restarts
in the same mode as it previously used when turned
on again.
NOTE: When the battery protection system works,
2
the mode indicators turn off.
NOTE: When the remaining battery capacity
becomes low, either of the two indicators for the mode
you are currently using will blink. The timing, at which
the lamp starts blinking depends on the temperature
at work place and the battery cartridge conditions.
Accidental restart preventive function
If you install the battery cartridge while pulling the
switch trigger, the tool does not start.
To start the tool, release the switch trigger, and then pull
the switch trigger again.
When the lock button is engaged, pull the switch trigger
fully and release it to exit the lock. Then pull the switch
trigger again.
Electronic function
The tool is equipped with the following electronic func-
tion for easy operation.
Constant speed control
Possible to perform a stable operation, because the
speed (frequency) of vibrations is kept constant even
under the loaded condition.
ASSEMBLY
CAUTION:
switched off and the battery cartridge is removed
before carrying out any work on the tool.
