Battery cartridge
To remove the battery cartridge, slide it from the pump
while sliding the button on the front of the cartridge.
To install the battery cartridge, align the tongue on the
battery cartridge with the groove in the housing and slip
it into place. Insert it all the way until it locks in place with
a little click. If you can see the red indicator on the upper
side of the button, it is not locked completely.
CAUTION:
Always install the battery cartridge
fully until the red indicator cannot be seen.
If not, it
may accidentally fall out of the pump, causing injury to
you or someone around you.
CAUTION:
Do not install the battery cartridge
forcibly.
If the cartridge does not slide in easily, it is not
being inserted correctly.
Battery protection system
►
Fig.3:

Star marking
The pump is equipped with a battery protection system.
This system automatically cuts off power to the motor to
extend battery life.
The pump will automatically stop during operation if the
pump and/or battery are placed under one of the following
conditions:
Overloaded:
The pump is operated in a manner that causes it to draw
an abnormally high current.
In this situation, turn the pump off and stop the application
that caused the pump to become overloaded. Then turn
the pump on to restart.
If the pump does not start, the battery is overheated.
In this situation, let the battery cool before turning the
pump on again.
Low battery voltage:
The remaining battery capacity is too low and the pump
will not operate. In this situation, remove and recharge
the battery.
NOTE:
The overheat protection works only with a
battery cartridge with a star marking.
Indicating the remaining battery
capacity
Only for battery cartridges with “B” at the end of the
model number
