OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

OPERATING THE COUPLER

The coupler enables the use of both trimmer and blower.

Removing Add-On Attachments:

WARNING: Battery tools do not have to be plugged into an electrical outlet; therefore, they are always in operating condition. To prevent serious personal injury, take extra precaution and care when removing or installing add-on attachments.

1. Turn the knob counterclockwise to loosen (Fig. 6).

NOTE: To make installing or removing the add-on attachment easier, place the unit on the ground or on a work bench.
