MAINTENANCE

Your power tool has been designed to operate over a long 
period of time with a minimum of maintenance. Continuous 
satisfactory operation depends upon proper tool care and 
regular cleaning.

WARNING:

To reduce the risk of serious personal 

injury, turn tool off and disconnect battery pack 
before making any adjustments or removing/

Speed Control Switch (Fig. A, G)

This attachment gives you the choice to operate at a more 
efficient speed to extend the runtime for larger jobs, or 
accelerate the tool speed for high‑ performance cutting.

To extend runtime

, pull the speed control switch

toward the battery housing into the "LO" position. This mode is 
best for larger projects that require more time to complete.

To accelerate the attachment, 

push the speed control switch 

forward toward the auxillary handle into the "HI" position. This 
mode is best to cut through heavier growth and for applications 
that need higher RPM.

nOTE: 

When in "HI" mode, runtime will be decreased as 

compared to when attachment is in "LO" mode.

 Hold the tool using only the designated 

gripping surfaces: The powerhead handle and the 
auxiliary handle. 

WARNING:

 Do not use the pole as a gripping surface.

Proper hand position requires one hand on the powerhead
