b) Use only the manufacturer's recommended replacement parts and accessories.
c) Inspect and maintain the machine regularly. Have the machine repaired only by an authorized repairer.
d) When not in use, store the machine out of the reach of children.

SAFETY WARNINGS FOR BATTERY PACK

a) Do not dismantle, open or shred cells or battery pack.
b) Do not short-circuit a battery pack. Do not store battery packs haphazardly in a box or drawer where they may short-circuit each other or be short-circuited by conductive materials. When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects, like paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other small metal objects, that can make a connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery terminals together may cause burns or a fire.
c) Do not expose battery pack to heat or fire. Avoid storage in direct sunlight.
d) Do not subject battery pack to mechanical shock.
e) In the event of battery leaking, do not allow the liquid to come into contact with the skin or eyes. If contact has been made, wash the affected area with copious amounts of water and seek medical advice.
f) Seek medical advice immediately if a cell or battery pack has been swallowed.
g) Keep battery pack clean and dry.
h) Wipe the battery pack terminals with a clean dry cloth if they become dirty.
i) Battery pack needs to be charged before use. Always refer to this instruction and use the correct charging procedure.
j) Do not maintain battery pack on charge when not in use.
k) After extended periods of storage, it may be necessary to charge and discharge the battery pack several times to obtain maximum performance.
I) Battery pack gives its best performance

when it is operated at normal room temperature (20°C ± 5°C).

m) When disposing of battery packs, keep battery packs of different electrochemical systems separate from each other.
n) Recharge only with the charger specified by WORX. Do not use any charger other than that specifically provided for use with the equipment. A charger that is suitable for one type of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with another battery pack.

VIBRATION INFORMATION

Typical weighted vibration	ah < 4 m/s2
Uncertainty	K = 1.5 m/s2

The declared vibration total value may be used for comparing one tool with another, and may also be used in a preliminary assessment of exposure.

WARNING! The vibration emission value during actual use of the power tool can differ

from the declared value depending on the ways in which the tool is used dependant on the following examples and other variations on how the tool is used: How the tool is used and the materials being cut or drilled.

The tool being in good condition and well maintained. The use the correct accessory for the tool and ensuring it is sharp and in good condition.

The tightness of the grip on the handles and if any anti vibration accessories are used.

And the tool is being used as intended by its design and these instructions.

This tool may cause hand-arm vibration syndrome if its use is not adequately managed.

WARNING! To be accurate, an estimation of exposure level in the actual conditions of use should also take account of all parts of the operating cycle such as the times when the tool is switched off and when it is running idle but not actually doing the job. This may significantly reduce the exposure level over the total working period.

Helping to minimise your vibration exposure risk.

ALWAYS use sharp chisels, drills and blades Maintain this tool in accordance with these instructions and keep well lubricated (where appropriate) If the tool is to be used regularly then invest in anti vibration accessories.

Plan your work schedule to spread any high vibration tool use across a number of days.

Installing and Removing the Battery PackNOTE:This machine will only run when 2 batteries are installed. It is recommended to use the same two batteries and charge the two batteries at the same time.Using two different sized batteries or if one battery isn't fully charged then the machine will only run to the lowest common denominator.	See Fig. C1, C2
Checking the battery charge conditionNOTE: Fig. C3 only applies for the battery pack with battery indicator light.	See Fig. C3
Charging the battery packNOTE:The batteries are shipped uncharged. Each battery must be fully charged before the first use.Always fully charge the two batteries at same time. More details can be found in charger's manual.	See Fig. C4

BATTERY STATUS (See Fig. C5)

Before starting or after use, press the button beside the power indicator light on the machine to check the battery capacity. The indicator lights displays the battery condition as follows:

Battery power indicator status	Battery condition
Five green lights (■) illuminated.	The two batteries are in a highly charged condition.
Two, three or four green lights are illuminated.	The two batteries have a remaining charge. The more lights are illuminated, the more battery capacity.
Only one green light (■) illuminated.	At least one battery is depleted and needs to be charged.
No light is illuminated.	At least one battery is not fully installed or battery may be defective.
Only one light is flashing twice per cycle.	At least one battery is over discharged (please refer to the battery charge condition), please recharge the two batteries at once before use again or storage.
Only one light is flashing three times per cycle.	At least one battery is hot, wait for them cool down before start again.
Only one light is flashing four times per cycle.	The machine is over load. Raise the cutting height or push slowly.

OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING! The charger and battery pack are specially designed to work together so do not attempt to use any other devices. Never insert or allow metallic objects into your charger or battery pack connections because of an electrical failure and hazard will occur.

1. COMMAND FEEDING THE LINE (See Fig. J)

Your grass trimmer is equipped with a Command Feed System. Just press the button while the machine is running, new line will feed out and then stop when you hear the 'clattering' noise of the new line being cut. The motor stops briefly when the Command Feed button is pressed, and restarts when released. This process enables the machine to automatically feed out new line.

2. MANUALLY FEEDING THE LINE (See Fig. K)

Turn off the trimmer and remove the battery. If required, line can be fed out manually. To operate, press and release manual Line Feed Button, while gently pulling out the line until it is long enough to reach the Line Cutter. If the line extends past the Line Cutter, too much line has been fed out. If too much line is fed out, remove the Spool Cap and turn Spool counter-clockwise until the line is at the desired length.

3. MANUALLY WINDING THE LINE (See Fig. 0, P, Q, R)

Take approximately 20ft (6m) of line. Insert 0.080 inches (2mm) of line into the Spool holes and wind line in the direction of the arrows on the top of the Spool. Leave approximately 4 inches (100mm) of line unwound and place into the cleat. Ensure that the line is neatly coiled on the Spool. Failure to do so will impair the efficiency of the automatic line feed. Then fit the Spool as described above in "Replacing the trimmer line and Spool"

STORING YOUR GRASS TRIMMER

Always remove the battery pack from your trimmer after use.

TO STORE YOUR GRASS TRIMMER

The trimmer is provided with a hanging slot for storing the trimmer on the wall. (See Fig. S) Store in a dry place where the trimmer and battery can be protected from damage.

MAINTENANCE

Always remove the battery pack from your trimmer after use.

Always check the product prior to being used for any damage.

After use, disconnect the battery from the tool and check for damage.

Your power tool requires no additional lubrication or maintenance. There are no user serviceable parts in your power tool. Never use water or chemical cleaners to clean your power tool. Wipe clean with a dry cloth. Always store your power tool in a dry room temperature location. Keep the motor ventilation slots clean. Keep all working controls free of dust.
