BRUSH CUTTER SAFETY WARNINGS
In addition to the above rules, these additional
instructions are appropriate when using the product in
brushcutter mode.
Use heavy-duty gloves while installing or removing
blades, they have sharp edges.
Do not attempt to touch or stop the blade when it is
rotating.
A moving blade can cause severe injury. Maintain
proper control of the machine with both hands until
the blade has completely stopped rotating.
Replace any blade that has been damaged. Always
make sure blade is installed correctly and securely
fastened before each use.
Use only the manufacturer’s replacement 3-tooth
blades. Do not use any other cutting attachment.
Never cut any material over 13 mm diameter.
Your brushcutter is fitted with a harness. Carefully
adjust the harness to fit comfortably and help to
support the weight of the machine at your right side.
Never wear additional clothing over the harness or
otherwise that restrict access to the quick release
mechanism.
Store the blade with the cardboard blade protector
before storing the unit, or during transportation.
Always remove the blade protector before using the
unit. If not removed, the blade protector could
become a thrown object as the blade begins to turn.
xercise extreme caution when using the blade with
this product. Blade thrust is the reaction that may
occur when the spinning blade contacts anything it
cannot cut. This contact may cause the blade to stop
for an instant, and suddenly “thrust” the unit away
from the object that was hit. This reaction can be
violent enough to cause the operator to lose control of
the unit. Blade thrust may occur without warning if the
blade snags, stalls, or binds. This is more likely to
occur in areas where it is difficult to see the material
being cut.
For cutting ease and safety, approach the weeds
being cut from the right to the left. In the event that an
unexpected object or woody stock is encountered,
this practice could minimize the blade thrust reaction.
Both hands must be used at all times to control this
product.

BATTERY CHARGING INFORMATION
Charging rates for NiCad and/or Li-Ion NiCad and/or
Li-Ion battery charging rates are determined by the
time taken to fully charge the battery and are
determined by the charge current. The three most
commonly used charging rates are typically:
Fast charge.
Slow charge.
Trickle charge.
FAST CHARGE BATTERIES
The charging rates for fast charge batteries can vary
between 30 minutes and 90 minutes. The charging
rate for the battery supplied with a cordless power
tool is stated in the product manual.
S OW CHARGE BATTERY
The charging rates for slow charge batteries are
between 3 hours and 5 hours.
TRICK E CHARGE BATTERIES
The charging rates for trickle charge batteries are
between 7 hours and 9 hours.
IMPORTANT!
NICAD AND/OR I-ION BATTERY CHARGING
INFORMATION.
AWAYS FU Y DISCHARGE A NiCad and/or i-
Ion BATTERY BEFORE CHARGING AND NEVER
EXCEED THE CHARGING RATE TIME, EXCEPT
WHEN “CONDITIONING” A NEW BATTERY.
CHARGING PROCEDURE
When charging a new NiCad and/or Li-Ion battery it
should be fully discharged followed by a full charge
for the charging rate for the battery as stated in the
product manual plus 30 minutes.
This should then be followed by a full discharge and a
further full charge for the charging rate for the battery
as stated in the product manual plus 30 minutes. This
procedure will condition the battery and equalise the
cell voltages. Following this procedure will ensure the
optimum operation of the battery.
When repeatedly using the charger to charge a
number of batteries always allow the charger to cool
down before charging another battery. It is
recommended that the cooling down period is not
less than 30 to 45 minutes.
When charging a battery that has been discharged
during heavy use allow the battery to cool down
before charging. It is recommended that the cooling
down period is not less than 30 to 45 minutes.
NICAD AND/OR I-ION CHARGING & CHARGERS
NiCad and/or Li-Ion batteries need to be recharged
with a reasonable amount of care, largely because
they can be damaged by overcharging.
Overcharging can result in the battery temperature
and internal pressure to rise rapidly. This can cause
the cells to distort and lose electrolyte, and in extreme
cases where the internal pressure is extremely high
they can even explode.
This situation can also arise when an overcharged
battery is fitted to the product and is being used. In
order to avoid this extreme situation it is of vital
importance that NiCad and/or Li-Ion batteries are fully
discharged before charging and that the charge time
is not exceeded except when “Conditioning” a new
battery. Repeated charging of partially discharged
batteries could cause failure of one or more of the
cells.
SE F DISCHARGE
A lithium battery can self discharge and lose its stored
charge. Typically it can lose approximately 5% of its
charge in the first month after fully charging (when
stored at room temperature), and then loses it by a
further 3% per month. When stored at higher
temperatures the self discharge rate will be
accelerated.
BATTERY CHARGING INDOORS
This charger is designed to be used indoors. We do
not recommend that it is used inside your home.
Ideally batteries should be charged on a bench in a
workshop, garage or shed.
9

If the charging operation is to be carried out in your
home the area must be well ventilated and the charger
must be placed on a non combustible surface
ensuring that the ventilation slots are not blocked.
Never exceed the charging time except when
“Conditioning” a new battery, as this could damage
the battery and charger.
BATTERY DISPOSA
When the battery fails to charge or maintain its
charge, its usable life is exhausted. To preserve
natural resources, please recycle or dispose of the
battery pack properly. This battery pack contains
nickel-cadmium cells. Before disposal ensure that the
battery pack is fully discharged by operating your
cordless product then remove the battery pack from
the drill housing and cover the battery pack
connections with heavy duty tape, to prevent short
circuit and energy discharge which could result in a
fire. Do not attempt to open or remove any of the
components.
Consult your local waste authority for information
regarding available recycling and / or disposal
options.
