Tool / battery protection system

The tool is equipped with a tool/battery protection 

system. This system automatically cuts off power to 

the motor to extend tool and battery life. The tool will 

automatically stop during operation if the tool is placed 

under one of the following conditions:

NOTICE:

Depending on the usage conditions, 

the tool automatically stops without any indica-

tion if the branches or debris are entangled in the 

tool. In this case, switch off the tool and remove 

the battery cartridge, and then remove entangled 

branches or debris using tools such as pliers. 

After removing the branches or debris, install the 

battery cartridge and turn on the tool again.

Overload protection

If the tool or battery is overloaded by entangled 

branches or other debris, the tool automatically stops 

and the caution lamp starts blinking in green.

In this situation, turn the tool off and stop the application 

that caused the tool to become overloaded. Then turn 

the tool on to restart.

Overheat protection for tool or battery

If the tool or battery cartridge is overheated, the tool 

stops automatically. When the tool is overheated, the 

caution lamp lights up in red. When the battery cartridge 

is overheated, the caution lamp blinks in red. Let the 

tool and/or battery cool down before turning the tool on 

again.

Overdischarge protection

When the battery capacity becomes low, the tool stops 

automatically and the caution lamp starts blinking in red.

If the tool does not operate even when the switches are 

operated, remove the battery cartridge from the tool and 

charge it.

NOTICE:

If the tool stops due to a cause 

not described above, refer to the section for 

troubleshooting.

Angle setting of the handle

CAUTION:

Always make sure that the handle 

is locked in the desired position before operation.

CAUTION:

Do not pull down the lever to 

unlock the handle while pulling the switch trigger. 

Do not pull the switch trigger while pulling down 

the lever and turning the handle.

 Failure to do so 

may cause a malfunction of the tool.

You can set the angle of the handle to 0°, 45°, or 90° 

to the left or right. To change the angle of the handle, 

turn the handle while pulling down the lever, and then 

release the lever.

For your safety, this tool is 

equipped with lock-off lever which prevents the 

tool from unintended starting. NEVER use the tool 

if it runs when you simply press the switch lever 

and pull the switch trigger without pressing the 

lock-off lever. Return the tool to our authorized 

service center for proper repairs BEFORE further 

usage.

Operating a tool with a switch that does not actuate 

properly can lead to loss of control and serious per

-

sonal injury.
