Using the Makita 40V Max XGT String Trimmer Kit is easy. First, charge the 40V max XGT® 4.0Ah Battery using the included Rapid Optimum Charger. Once charged, insert the battery into the string trimmer. You can adjust the loop handle to a comfortable position for you. Use the variable speed trigger switch to control the cutting speed, and choose from the three speed options according to your needs. If the trimmer head gets clogged with grass and weeds, use the reverse rotation function to clear it quickly. For the vacuum, simply turn it on and start cleaning. When using the string trimmer, avoid wet grass as much as possible, even though it has IPX4 weather - resistant construction. Don't overload the trimmer; if you notice it slowing down, reduce the load. After each use, clean the string trimmer and vacuum. Check the battery regularly and store it in a cool, dry place. If the trimmer head needs a new line, use the rapid load bump & feed system. Just align, feed, and twist the line for a quick reload. Keep the charger in good condition and don't expose it to moisture. With proper use and maintenance, this kit will serve you well for a long time.
