NOTE: Depending on the conditions of use and the
ambient temperature, the indication may differ slightly
from the actual capacity.
Tool / battery protection system
The tool is equipped with a tool/battery protection sys-
tem. This system automatically cuts off power to the
motor to extend tool and battery life. The tool will auto-
matically stop during operation if the tool or battery is
placed under one of the following conditions:
Overload protection
When the battery is operated in a manner that causes it to draw
an abnormally high current, the tool automatically stops. 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
When the tool or battery is overheated, the tool stops
automatically and the lamp blinks. In this case, let the
tool and battery cool before turning the tool on again.
Overdischarge protection
When the battery capacity is not enough, the tool stops automatically.
In this case, remove the battery from the tool and charge the battery.
Switch action
WARNING:
Before installing the battery car-
tridge into the tool, always check to see that the
switch trigger actuates properly and returns to
the "OFF" position when released.
WARNING:
For your safety, this tool is
equipped with the lock-off button which prevents
the tool from unintended starting. Never use the
tool if it starts when you pull the switch trigger
without pressing the lock-off button. Ask your local
Makita Service Center for repairs.
WARNING:
Never disable the lock function or
tape down the lock-off button.
NOTICE:
Do not pull the switch trigger forcibly with-
out pressing the lock-off button. The switch may break.

Adjusting the shearing height (for
grass shear)
CAUTION:
When changing the shearing
height, be sure to attach the blade cover and be
careful not to trap fingers between the tool and
grass receiver.
The shearing height can be set to three levels (15 mm, 20 mm,
and 25 mm) by changing the fixed position of the grass receiver.
The shearing height without the grass receiver is about 10 mm.
1. Slide the grass receiver toward the front of the tool.
► Fig.5: 1. Grass receiver
2. Change the fixed position of the grass receiver by
moving it in the direction of the arrow.
► Fig.6
NOTE: The shearing height value is a guideline. The
actual shearing height may vary depending on the
condition of the lawn or the ground.
NOTE: Try a test shearing in a less conspicuous
place to get your desired height.
ASSEMBLY
CAUTION:
Always be sure that the tool is
switched off and the battery cartridge is removed
before carrying out any work on the tool.
CAUTION:
When replacing the shear blades,
always wear gloves and attach the blade cover so
that your hands and face do not directly contact
the blades.
NOTICE:
When replacing the shear blades, do
not wipe off grease from the gear and crank.
