Continued use under these conditions could lead to
injury or tool damage.
17. If you drop or bump the tool, inspect it carefully to check
there is no damage, cracks or deformation.
Using a tool that is damaged, cracked or deformed
could result in injury.
18. Secure the tool during vehicle transport to ensure that it
lies still. Failure to heed this warning may result in an
accident.
19. When transporting or moving the tool, hold the main
pipe with both hands, and keep the blade away from
your body when carrying.
20. Put the blade cover in the included tool bag so that it
can be used right away when needed, and always keep
it near the tool.
21. When transporting or storing the tool, remove the
battery, and remove the blade or cover it with the blade
cover.
22. When not working, remove the shoulder belt from the
tool.
23. Make sure that the battery is installed firmly. If it is at all
loose it could come off and cause an accident.
24. Do not use the product if the tool or the battery
terminals (battery mount) are deformed.
Installing the battery could cause a short circuit that
could result in smoke emission or ignition.
25. Keep the tool's terminals (battery mount) free of swarf
and dust.
○ Prior to use, make sure that swarf and dust have not
collected in the area of the terminals.
○ During use, try to avoid swarf or dust on the tool from
falling on the battery.
○ When suspending operation or after use, do not leave
the tool in an area where it may be exposed to falling
swarf or dust.
Doing so could cause a short circuit that could result in
smoke emission or ignition.
26. Always use the tool and battery at temperatures
between -5°C and 40°C.
27. Do not give a strong shock to the switch panel or break
it. It may lead to a trouble.
CAUTION
1. Do not turn on the cutting attachment for cutting objects
other than grass. Do not operate the tool in water
puddles and make sure that soil does not come into
contact with the cutting attachment.
2. The tool contains precision parts and should not be
dropped, exposed to strong impact or water.
The tool could be damaged or malfunction.
3. When the tool is to be stored after use or be
transported, remove the cutting attachment.
4. Do not expose the tool to insecticide and other
chemicals.
Such chemicals could cause cracking and other
damage.
5. Replace warning labels with new labels when they
become difficult to recognize or illegible and when they
start to peel.
Ask your dealer to provide the warning labels.
PRECAUTIONS FOR BATTERY AND
CHARGER (sold separately)
1. Always charge the battery at a temperature of 0°C–
40°C. A temperature of less than 0°C will result in over
charging which is dangerous. The battery cannot be
charged at a temperature higher than 40°C. The most
suitable temperature for charging is that of 20°C–25°C.
2. Do not allow foreign matter to enter the hole for
connecting the rechargeable battery.
3. Never disassemble the rechargeable battery and
charger.
4. Never short-circuit the rechargeable battery. Short-
circuiting the battery will cause a great electric current
and overheat. It results in burn or damage to the
battery.
5. Do not dispose of the battery in fire. If the battery is
burnt, it may explode.
6. Bring the battery to the shop from which it was
purchased as soon as the post-charging battery life
becomes too short for practical use. Do not dispose of
the exhausted battery.
7. Do not insert objects into the air ventilation slots of the
charger.
Inserting metal objects or inflammables into the charger
air ventilation slots will result in electrical shock hazard
or a damaged charger.
CAUTION ON LITHIUM-ION BATTERY
To extend the lifetime, the lithium-ion battery equips with
the protection function to stop the output.
In the cases of 1 to 3 described below, when using this
product, even if you are pulling the switch, the motor may
stop. This is not the trouble but the result of protection
function.
1. When the battery power remaining runs out, the motor
stops.
In such a case, charge it up immediately.
2. If the tool is overloaded, the motor may stop. In this
case, release the switch of tool and eliminate causes of
overloading. After that, you can use it again.
3. If the battery is overheated under overload work, the
battery power may stop.
In this case, stop using the battery and let the battery
cool. After that, you can use it again.
Furthermore, please heed the following warning and
caution.
WARNING
In order to prevent any battery leakage, heat generation,
smoke emission, explosion and ignition beforehand, please
be sure to heed the following precautions.
1. Make sure that swarf and dust do not collect on the
battery.
○ During work make sure that swarf and dust do not fall
on the battery.
○ Make sure that any swarf and dust falling on the power
tool during work do not collect on the battery.
○ Do not store an unused battery in a location exposed to
swarf and dust.
○ Before storing a battery, remove any swarf and dust
that may adhere to it and do not store it together with
metal parts (screws, nails, etc.).
2. Do not pierce battery with a sharp object such as a nail,
strike with a hammer, step on, throw or subject the
battery to severe physical shock.
3. Do not use an apparently damaged or deformed
battery.
4. Do not use the battery for a purpose other than those
specified.
5. If the battery charging fails to complete even when a
specified recharging time has elapsed, immediately
stop further recharging.
6. Do not put or subject the battery to high temperatures or
high pressure such as into a microwave oven, dryer, or
high pressure container.
7. Keep away from fire immediately when leakage or foul
odor are detected.
8. Do not use in a location where strong static electricity
generates.
