56 VOLT LITHIUM-ION REAR MOTOR BIKE-HANDLE BRUSHCUTTER — BC3800E
15
USING WITH 3-TEETH METAL
WARNING: To cut wild growth and scrub, lower the
rotating 3-teeth blade down onto the growth to achieve a
chopping effect. Use the brushcutter 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 trees 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 brushcutter forward. This may
cause damage to the blade or the brushcutter or loss of
control of the brushcutter, 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 qualied 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 difcult to see the
material being cut. For cutting ease and safety, approach
the weeds being cut with the brushcutter from the right to
the left. In the event an unexpected object or woody stock
is encountered, this practice could minimise the blade
thrust reaction.
MAINTENANCE
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 qualied
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.
CLEAN THE MACHINE
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 qualied service
technician or replace with a new line-cutting blade as
necessary.
After each use of brushcutter, 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.
STORING THE MACHINE
Remove the battery pack from the tool.
Wear heavy gloves to clean the tool thoroughly.
Mount the blade sheath onto the 3-teeth blade for safe
storage (Fig. Y).
Store the unit in a dry, well-ventilated area, locked-up
or up high, out of the reach of children. Do not store
the machine on or adjacent to fertilisers, petrol, or
other chemicals.
