User guide
First use
The first time you use the equipment, we strongly recommend you to ask the advice of your
dealer, who is qualified to give you all the advice you need for correct use and good output.
It is imperative to carefully read the tool and accessory user manuals before handling or
powering up the tool.

Battery
Before using the equipment for the first time and/or following wintering, fully charge the
battery (see charging procedure on page 14).
The L100B Lithium battery MUST be recharged using the INFACO Lithium charger
(Ref.: 941C).
Using a different charger is prohibited as it may cause to a serious electrical accident
(explosion and/or fire)..
Compatible batteries
• The table below lists the batteries that are compatible with the F3020 pruning
shears. However, the use of these batteries (other than the L100B) may reduce device
performances (see table below).
• Using the L100B 36 V battery is to be preferred to get the best device performances.

• If you want to use your F3020 pruning shears with one of the 48 volt batteries above,
an additional configuration parameter is required. Please contact your approved
INFACO dealer to find out how to do that.
The F3020 pruning shears are not compatible with the batteries for previous models (F3005 and
F3010).

Carrying the equipment
There are several possible carrying methods:
1. With full equipment
• Remove the battery, the battery-
holder belt, the straps, the holster,
the arm-band and the power cord
from the case.
• Clip the straps to the belt, slide the
power cord through the provided
cable passages.
• Don the vest and adjust the straps:
pull the straps to a comfortable
position and clip the front clips at the
required position.
• Armbands can be used to fix the
cable using the hook and loop quick
fastening. In that way, the cable will
run along the arm and will not hinder
work.
• Fit the battery onto the battery-
holder belt with the socket at the
top. To do that, slip the two straps
through the back battery clips.

2. Carrying with the belt and the armband
• It is possible to only use the belt and
armband without the straps. In that case,
the armband is strongly recommended
for better work comfort. The battery
must then be fixed with the cable outlet
horizontal either on the right or on the
left.
3. Carrying the battery without the belt
and straps
• The battery can simply be worn on a
trouser belt. In that case, the armband
is strongly recommended for better work
comfort. The battery socket should be
facing down in that case.
In heavy rain, it is preferable to carry the
battery under waterproof clothing to
keep it protected from damp.
4. Carrying the pruning shear holster
• Use of the holster is strongly
recommended to carry the tool safely
when traveling and when not pruning.
• To do that, make sure to attach the
holster to the battery belt through the
loop provided for this purpose or your
trouser belt if you do not wear the vest.
• The pruning shears must be inserted into
the holster in the fully closed position in
standby mode or switched off, until they
reaches the stop.
• To remove the pruning shears from their
holster, simply grasp them with one
hand, and unlock the latch and remove
the shears from their housing with your
free hand.

quickly and the blade opens if not
