WARNING: Dress properly to reduce the risk of

injury when operating the brush cutter. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Wear eye and ear/hearing protection. Wear heavy duty, long trousers, boots and gloves. Do not wear short trousers, sandals or go barefoot. Before operating, look around you to ensure a safety working area without other people, animals or any loose objects. Make sure they are at least 15m away. And then check for eye protection, proper clothing and balanced footing. Before each use check for damaged/worn parts. Check the trimmer head, 3-teeth blade, guard, guard accessory and bike handle and replace any parts that are cracked, warped, bent, or damaged in any away. The line-cutting blade on the edge of the guard accessory can dull over time. It is recommended that you periodically sharpen it with a file or replace it with a new blade. After each use, clean the brush cutter Using with Trimmer Head Adjusting cutting line length The trimmer head allows the operator to release more cutting line without stopping the motor. As line becomes frayed or worn, additional line can be released by lightly tapping the bump knob on the ground while operating the trimmer. NOTICE: Line release will become more difficult if the cutting line becomes too short.

WARNING: Do not remove or alter the line-cutting

blade assembly. Excessive line length will cause the motor to overheat and may result in serious personal injury. Line replacement

WARNING: Never use metal-reinforced line, wire,

or rope, etc. These can break off and become dangerous projectiles. Press the release tabs on the spool retainer and pull the spool retainer out (Fig. H1 & H2). Follow the step 6 of “REPLACE THE 3-TEETH BLADE WITH THE TRIMMER HEAD” to assemble a new trimmer line to the brush cutter. Using with 3-Teeth Blade

WARNING: To cut wild growth and scrub, lower the

rotating 3-teeth blade down onto the growth to achieve a chopping effect. Use the brush cutter like a scythe (sweep it to the right and left) at ground level. Do not use the cutting unit above waist height.

WARNING: The higher the cutting unit is off the

ground, the greater the risk of injury from cuttings being thrown sideways.

WARNING: When cutting young stands or other

woody materials up to 2cm in diameter, use the left side of the blade to avoid blade thrust situations. Do not attempt to cut woody material with a larger diameter, since the blade may catch or jerk the brush cutter forward. This may cause damage to the blade or the brush cutter or loss of control of the brush cutter, resulting personal injury.

WARNING: Improper use of a blade may cause it to

crack, chip, or shatter. Thrown parts may seriously injure the operator or bystander. To reduce the risk of personal injury, it is essential to take the following precautions: ◾ Avoid contact with hard or solid foreign objects such as stones, rocks or pieces of metal. ◾ Never cut wood or shrubs with a stem diameter of more than 2cm. ◾ Inspect the blade at a regular short interval for signs of damage. Do not continue working with a damaged blade. ◾ Re-sharpen the blade regularly (when it has dulled noticeably) and have it balanced if necessary (performed by a qualified service technician). Blade Thrust Exercise extreme caution when using the 3-teeth blade with this unit. 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 can 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 with the brush cutter from the right to the left. In the event an unexpected object or woody stock is encountered, this practice could minimize the blade thrust reaction.56 VOLT LITHIUM-ION REAR MOTOR BIKE-HANDLE BRUSH CUTTER — BCX3800

WARNING: Before inspecting, cleaning or servicing

the unit, stop the motor, wait for all moving parts to stop, and remove the battery pack. Failure to follow these instructions can result in serious personal injury or property damage.

WARNING: When servicing, use only identical

replacement parts. Use of any other parts may create a hazard or cause product damage. To ensure safety and reliability, all repairs should be performed by a qualified service technician. GENERAL MAINTENANCE Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts. Most plastics are susceptible to damage from various types of commercial solvents and may be damaged by their use. Use clean clothes to remove dirt, dust, oil, grease, etc.

◾ After each use of 3-teeth blade / trimmer head, clean the debris, clogged soils or grass on the blade and guard with a soft brush. NOTICE: When the line-cutting blade becomes dull, please sharpen it performed by a qualified service technician or replace with a new line-cutting blade as necessary. ◾ After each use of brush cutter, clean the cutting unit using a damp cloth with a mild detergent. ◾ Do not use any strong detergents on the plastic housing or the handle. They can be damaged by certain aromatic oils, such as pine and lemon, and by solvents such as kerosene. Moisture can also cause a shock hazard. Wipe off any moisture with a soft dry cloth. ◾ Use a small brush or a small vacuum cleaner to clean the air vents on the rear housing.

LUBRICATE THE GEAR CASE
