• Avoid moisture exposure: Do not rinse or expose electrical components or battery interface to water or high pressure.
• Cooling vents: Keep motor housing vents clear of dust and debris to prevent overheating during extended use.
• Fastener inspection: Periodically check blade screws and housing fasteners for tightness due to vibration.
• Safety check: Ensure trigger, safety lock, and blade stop function smoothly before each operation.
• Storage: Fit blade guard, store in a dry place, and remove battery when not in use.
• Battery care: Charge after use, avoid deep discharge, and store batteries in a cool, dry environment.
