To remove the battery cartridge, slide it from the tool
while sliding the button on the front of the cartridge.
To install the battery cartridge, align the tongue on the
battery cartridge with the groove in the housing and slip
it into place. Insert it all the way until it locks in place
with a little click. If you can see the red indicator on the
upper side of the button, it is not locked completely.
CAUTION:
Always install the battery cartridge
fully until the red indicator cannot be seen. If not,
it may accidentally fall out of the tool, causing injury to
you or someone around you.
CAUTION:
Do not install the battery cartridge
forcibly. If the cartridge does not slide in easily, it is
not being inserted correctly.
Tool / battery protection system
The tool is equipped with a tool/battery protection
system. This system automatically cuts off power to
the motor to extend tool and battery life. The tool will
automatically stop during operation if the tool is placed

Overload protection

If the tool or battery gets into one of the following situa-
tion, the tool automatically stops and the caution lamp
starts blinking in green:
— The tool is overloaded by entangled weeds or
other debris.
— The cutting tool is locked or kicked back.
— The main power button is turned on while the
switch trigger is being pulled.
In this situation, release the switch trigger and remove
entangled weeds or debris if necessary. After that, pull
the switch trigger again to resume.
CAUTION:
If you need to remove the entan-
gled weeds on the tool or release the locked
cutting tool, be sure to turn the tool off before you
start.
Overheat protection for tool or
battery
If the tool or battery cartridge is overheated, the tool
stops automatically. When the tool is overheated, the
caution lamp lights up in red. When the battery cartridge
is overheated, the caution lamp blinks in red. Let the
tool and/or battery cool down before turning the tool on
again.

Overdischarge protection

When the battery capacity becomes low, the tool stops
automatically and the caution lamp starts blinking in red.
If the tool does not operate even when the switches are
operated, remove the battery cartridge from the tool and
charge it.

cate the remaining battery capacity. The indicator lamps
