Setting the performance level
Depending on the application, 3 power levels
can be set. The LEDs indicate the selected
power level. The higher the power level, the
faster the cutting attachment can run.
The selected power level affects the battery's
runtime. The lower the power level, the longer
the runtime.
► Depress the trigger lockout (1) and hold it in
that position.
