USING THE BRUSH CUTTER
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 op-
erating, 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

56 VOLT LITHIUM-ION REAR MOTOR BIKE-HANDLE BRUSH CUTTER — BCX3800
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 mo-
tor 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.
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 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.
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 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
For best operation and longer lifetime, lubricate the gear
case with a special grease (4-5g each time) after every
50 hours operation.
The special grease should meet the following requirements.
1. Belong to DIN51818: NLGI-1 cone penetration degree.
2. Ester base grease.
3. Excellent low-temperature startup, EP, mechanical
shearing, abrasion resistance and oxidative stability
properties.
4. Operation temperature must contain -40~180°C.
Remove the battery plug and the sealing screw. Lubricating
the gear case through the oil-hole.
WARNING:
Do not lubricate while the brush cutter is
still connected with battery or running.
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
saving (Fig. N).
◾
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 fertilizers, gasoline, or
other chemicals.
NOTICE:
Do not operate your hedge trimmer with dull or
damaged cutting blades. This may cause overload and
will give unsatisfactory cutting results.
Protecting the environment
Do not dispose of electrical appliances as
unsorted municipal waste, use separate
collection facilities.
According to the European law 2012/19/
EU, electrical and electronic equipment
that is no longer usable, and according to
the European law 2006/66/EC, defective
or used battery packs/batteries, must be
collected separately.
If electrical appliances are disposed of in land-
fills or dumps, hazardous substances can leak
into the groundwater and get into the food
chain, damaging your health and well-being.
