Overheat protection
When the tool/battery is overheated, the tool stops
automatically. In this situation, let the tool/battery cool
before turning the tool on again.
Overdischarge protection
When the battery capacity is not enough, the tool stops
automatically. In this case, remove the battery from the
tool and charge the battery.
NOTE: Overheat protection (for battery) will work only
with batteries with star marking.
Tips for maintaining maximum
battery life
1.
Charge the battery cartridge before completely dis-
charged. Always stop tool operation and charge the
battery cartridge when you notice less tool power.
2.
Never recharge a fully charged battery cartridge.
Overcharging shortens the battery service life.
3.
Charge the battery cartridge with room temperature
at 10 °C - 40 °C (50 °F - 104 °F). Let a hot battery
cartridge cool down before charging it.
4.
Charge the battery cartridge if you do not use
it for a long period (more than six months).

CAUTION: Always install the battery cartridge
fully until the red indicator cannot be seen. If not,
it may accidentally fall out of the tool, causing injury to
you or someone around you.
NOTE: Depending on the conditions of use and the ambient tem-
perature, the indication may differ slightly from the actual capacity.
Switch action
CAUTION: Do not install the battery cartridge

not being inserted correctly.

Tool / battery protection system
CAUTION: Before installing the battery cartridge into
the tool, always check to see that the switch trigger actuates
properly and returns to the "OFF" position when released.
The tool is equipped with a tool/battery protection sys-
tem. This system automatically cuts off power to the
motor to extend tool and battery life. The tool will auto-
matically stop during operation if the tool or battery is
placed under one of the following conditions:
To start the tool, simply pull the switch trigger. Tool
speed is increased by increasing pressure on the switch
trigger. Release the switch trigger to stop.
Overload protection
NOTE: The tool automatically stops if you keep pull-
ing the switch trigger for about 6 minutes.
When the battery is operated in a manner that causes
it to draw an abnormally high current, the tool automat-
ically stops without any indication. In this situation, turn
the tool off and stop the application that caused the tool
to become overloaded. Then turn the tool on to restart.
