Using the Makita XUX02SM1X4 is easy. First, make sure the battery is fully charged. Then, use the lever - style lock system to attach the string trimmer or pole saw. For the string trimmer, you can use the rapid - loading bump and feed trimmer head. Just align, feed, and twist the line. When using the pole saw, you can reach branches up to 7 feet away. Use the variable speed trigger to control how fast you cut. There's also a high/low speed button to manage power and run - time. When you're done, remove the attachments using the lever - style lock system. Always use genuine Makita batteries and chargers to avoid damage. Keep the tool clean and dry. If it gets dirty, wipe it down. The Extreme Protection Technology (XPT™) helps protect it from dust and water, but don't submerge it. Also, remember that the tool has Star Protection Computer Controls™ to stop overloading, over - discharging, and over - heating. The tool, battery, and charger have a 3 - year limited warranty, so if there are any issues, contact Makita.
