Mode selector
The speed (frequency) of vibrations can be changed in
two levels using the mode selector.
Press the mode button to toggle the vibrations in normal
mode (1) and power mode (2). Either of the two indica-
tors for the mode you select lights up.

NOTE: The mode you select will be saved automat-
ically when the tool is powered off. The tool restarts
in the same mode as it previously used when turned
on again.
NOTE: When the battery protection system works,
the mode indicators turn off.
NOTE: When the remaining battery capacity
becomes low, either of the two indicators for the mode
you are currently using will blink. The timing, at which
the lamp starts blinking depends on the temperature
at work place and the battery cartridge conditions.
Accidental restart preventive
function
If you install the battery cartridge while pulling the
switch trigger, the tool does not start.
To start the tool, release the switch trigger, and then pull
the switch trigger again.
When the lock button is engaged, pull the switch trigger
fully and release it to exit the lock. Then pull the switch
trigger again.
Electronic function
The tool is equipped with the following electronic func-
tion for easy operation.
Constant speed control
Possible to perform a stable operation, because the
speed (frequency) of vibrations is kept constant even
under the loaded condition.
Application
For formwork and surface
vibrating operations;
Commonly used in precast con-
crete construction, small pours
that require a minimal amount of
vibration, patching and repairing
work with precise operation.
For vibrations at larger pours;
Ideal for pours with a greater sur-
face area, such as construction
joints, slab consolidation, where
the operator moves around to
cover the entire area.
ASSEMBLY
CAUTION:
Always be sure that the tool is
switched off and the battery cartridge is removed
before carrying out any work on the tool.
Installing and removing flexible
shaft
Optional accessory
Installation
1. Pull the flexible core shaft reasonably straight out
of the outer casing.
► Fig.16: 1. Flexible core shaft 2. Outer casing
2. Hold the drive shaft in the tool still using the
wrench provided. Then hand thread the end fitting of the
flexible core shaft onto the solid drive shaft in the tool.

shaft
3. Fasten the end fitting of the flexible core shaft up
tightly using a pair of pliers.
► Fig.18
4.
Hand thread the coupling of the outer casing onto
the male thread of the tool.
► Fig.19: 1. Coupling 2. Outer casing 3. Male thread
If the coupling does not reach or fit securely onto the
male thread of the tool, especially when installing a long
flexible shaft, pull the outer casing further towards the
tool while hand-turning the flexible core shaft so the
shaft top well fits into the shaft slot in the vibration head
and becomes fully engaged.

5. Knock each of the three corners of triangular
coupling with a hammer a few times in random order to
secure assembly.
► Fig.21
Uninstallation
Follow the installation steps in reverse order.
Installing shoulder strap
Optional accessory
WARNING:
from the tool while wearing portable power packs.
Wearing multiple harnesses and straps may impair
the chances to take the equipment off quickly in a
case of emergency and result in personal injury.
WARNING:
the shoulder strap for other purposes, such as
the fall prevention at high location. If the parts
for attaching the shoulder strap are used for other
purposes, excessive load may break them and cause
serious injury to the operator and person around/
underneath the operator.
11 ENGLISH
Always remove the shoulder strap
Do not use the parts for attaching
