5. 

Adjust the shoulder harness and hand grip to 

suit the operator's body size.

6. 

When inserting a battery cartridge, keep the 

cutting attachment clear of your body and 

other object, including the ground.

 It may rotate 

when starting and may cause injury or damage to 

the tool and/or property.

7. 

Remove any adjusting key, wrench or blade 

cover before turning the tool on.

 An accessory 

left attached to a rotating part of the tool may 

result in personal injury.

8. 

The cutting tool has to be equipped with the 

guard. Never run the tool with damaged guards 

or without guards in place!

9. 

Make sure there are no electrical cables, water 

pipes, gas pipes etc. that could cause a hazard 

if damaged by use of the tool.

Operation

1. 

In the event of an emergency, switch off the 

tool immediately.

2. 

If you feel any unusual condition (e.g. noise, 

vibration) during operation, switch off the tool 

and remove the battery cartridge. Do not use the 

tool until the cause is recognized and solved.

3. 

The cutting attachment continues to rotate for 

a short period after turning the tool off. Don't 

rush to contact the cutting attachment.

4. 

During operation, use the shoulder harness. 

Keep the tool on your right side firmly.

5. 

Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and 

balance at all times. Watch for hidden obsta-

cles such as tree stumps, roots and ditches to 

avoid stumbling.

6. 

Always be sure of your footing on slopes.

7. 

Walk, never run.

8. 

Never work on a ladder or tree to avoid loss of 

control.

9. 

If the tool gets heavy impact or fall, check the 

condition before continuing work. Check the 

controls and safety devices for malfunction. If 

there is any damage or doubt, ask our authorized 

service center for the inspection and repair.

10. 

Do not touch the gear case during and immedi-

ately after the operation.

 The gear case becomes 

hot during operation and can cause burn injury.

11. 

Take a rest to prevent loss of control caused 

by fatigue.

 We recommend taking a 10 to 20-min-

ute rest every hour.

12. 

When you leave the tool, even if it is a short 

time, always remove the battery cartridge.

 The 

unattended tool with the battery cartridge installed 

may be used by unauthorized person and cause 

serious accident.

13. 

If grass or branches get caught between the 

cutting attachment and guard, always turn 

the tool off and remove the battery cartridge 

before cleaning. 

Otherwise the cutting attach-

ment may rotate unintentionally and cause serious 

injury.

14. 

Never touch moving hazardous parts before 

the moving hazardous parts have come to 

a complete stop and the battery cartridge is 

removed.

15. 

If the cutting attachment hits stones or other 

hard objects, immediately turn the tool off. 

Then remove the battery cartridge and inspect 

the cutting attachment.

16. 

Check the cutting attachment frequently 

during operation for cracks or damages. 

Before the inspection, remove the battery 

cartridge and wait until the cutting attachment 

stops completely. Replace damaged cutting 

attachment immediately, even if it has only 

superficial cracks.

17. 

Never cut above waist height.

18. 

Before starting the cutting operation, wait until 

the cutting attachment reaches a constant 

speed after turning the tool on.

19. 

When using a cutting blade, swing the tool 

evenly in half-circle from right to left, like 

using a scythe.

20. 

Hold the tool by insulated gripping surfaces 

only, because the cutter blade may contact 

hidden wiring.

 Cutter blades contacting a "live" 

wire may make exposed metal parts of the tool 

"live" and could give the operator an electric 

shock.

21. 

Do not start the tool when the cutting tool is 

tangled with cut grass.

22. 

Before starting the tool, be sure that the cut-

ting tool is not touching the ground and other 

obstacles such as a tree.

23. 

During operation always hold the tool with 

both hands. Never hold the tool with one hand 

during use.

24. 

Do not operate the tool in bad weather or if 

there is a risk of lightning.

Cutting tools

1. 

Do not use a cutting tool which is not recom-

mended by us.

2. 

Use an applicable cutting attachment for the 

job in hand.

—  Nylon cutting heads (string trimmer heads) 

and plastic blades are suitable for trimming 

lawn grass.

—  Cutting blades are suitable for cutting weeds, 

high grasses, bushes, shrubs, underwood, 

thicket, and the like.

—  Never use other blades including metal 

multi-piece pivoting chains and flail blades. It 

may result in serious injury.

3. 

Only use the cutting tool that are marked with 

a speed equal or higher than the speed marked 

on the tool.

4. 

Always keep your hands, face, and clothes 

away from the cutting tool when it is rotating.

Failure to do so may cause personal injury.

5. 

Always use the cutting attachment guard prop-

erly suited for the cutting attachment used.

6. 

When using cutting blades, avoid kickback 

and always prepare for an accidental kickback. 

See the section for Kickback.

7. 

When not in use, attach the blade cover onto 

the blade. Remove the cover before operation.
