○ Do not use the tool on steep slopes.
When cutting on slopes that are not so steep, cut by
moving towards the ridge.
○ Take care not to move the cutting attachment too close
to your feet.
○ Do not raise the cutting attachment above your knee
during cutting.
○ Do not use the tool where the cutting attachment may
come into contact with stones, tree and other obstacles.
○ A cutting attachment can injure while it continues to spin
after the motor is stopped. When the unit is turned off,
make sure the cutting attachment has stopped before
the unit is set down.
○ Do not use the tool within 15 m of another person.
When you work with someone else, maintain a distance
of more than 15 m.
1. Insert the battery.
2. Turn on the tool. (Fig. 21-a)
○ Press the power switch on the handle, the power goes
on and the power lamp on the handle lights green.
○ Pressing the power switch a second time turns the
power off and the green lamp on the handle goes off.
○ While the lever is pulled, the power does not turn ON
when the power switch is pressed.
[Auto power off]
–
When the power is turned on but the lever is not used
for 1 minute, the tool is automatically turned off. To turn
the tool on again, press the power switch a second
time.
WARNING
Never leave the tool with the power on. This could result
in an accident.
3. Mode switch (Fig. 21-b)
The tool is equipped with three modes:
"Power Mode" "Normal Mode" "Eco Mode".
Each time the mode switch is pressed, the operation
mode changes.
The set mode remains set even if the power is turned
off.
4. Lever operation and brake (Fig. 22)
To start rotation of the cutting attachment, with the
power turned on, pull the lever while pressing the lock
lever.
When you release the lever, the brake engages in 1–
3 seconds, stopping rotation of the cutting attachment.
Make sure that the brake operates normally before
using the tool.
5. Cutting
○ Grip the handle, press the lock lever and pull the lever
to start cutting head rotation. (Fig. 22)
○ Release the lever when you finish cutting and stop the
motor.
○ Take a posture that makes it easy to move.
[Using the semi-auto nylon head]
–
When using the nylon head, the mode switch is set to
"Normal" or "Eco".
–
Do not swing the pipe, but use the hips to move the
nylon head horizontally from left to right in an arc while
going forward and use the right side of the nylon head
for cutting grass. (Fig. 23)
[Using the blade]
–
Cut grass from right to left, using the left side of the
blade to cut. (Fig. 24)
–
Slightly tilting the blade to the left while cutting will pile
the cut grass to the left, making collection easy.
WARNING
○ Blade thrust may occur when the spinning blade
contacts a solid object in the critical area.
A dangerous reaction may occur causing the entire unit
and operator to be thrust violently. This reaction is
called blade thrust. As a result, the operator may lose
control of the unit which may cause serious or fatal
injury. Blade thrust is more likely to occur in areas
where it is difficult to see the material to be cut.
○ If cutting attachment should strike against stones or
other debris, stop the engine and make sure that the
attachment and related parts are undamaged.
NOTE
Excessively increasing rotation speed may cause
increased blade wear, vibration and noise. It will also
wear out the battery faster.
6. Carrying the tool
CAUTION
○ Remove the storage battery. (Fig. 5)
○ Carry the tool holding with hands.
○ If the blade is installed, attach the included blade cover.
OPERATIONAL CAUTIONS
This tool incorporates a function to safeguard the electronic
components that control the main unit. If an overload
occurs during mowing—for example, if the cutting
attachment locks up or becomes clogged with vegetation—
the function will activate to stop the motor. If this happens,
the warning signal (54 in Fig. 25) will flash.
Check the signal status and take appropriate corrective
action. (Fig. 25, Table 3)
You can resume use after taking the following corrective
action. Take steps to reduce the load imposed on the motor
—for example, by reducing the cutting depth. Before
clearing vegetation from the cutting attachment, turn off the
power and remove the battery from the tool main unit.
