Reverse button for debris removal
WARNING: Switch off the tool and remove
the battery cartridge before you remove entan-
gled weeds or debris which the reverse rotation
function can not remove. Failure to switch off and
remove the battery cartridge may result in serious
personal injury from accidental start-up.
This tool has a reverse button to change the direction of
rotation. It is only for removing weeds and debris entan-
gled in the tool.
To reverse the rotation, tap the reverse button and pull
the trigger when the tool’s head is stopped. The power
lamp starts blinking, and the tool's head rotates in
reverse direction when you pull the switch trigger.
To return to regular rotation, release the trigger and wait
until the tool's head stops.

to regular direction when you start the tool again.

head is still rotating, the tool comes to stop and to be
ready for reverse rotation.
