CAUTION: 

• 

Always switch off the tool before installing or 
removing of the battery cartridge. 

• 

Hold the tool and the battery cartridge firmly when 
installing or removing battery cartridge. Failure to 
hold the tool and the battery cartridge firmly may 
cause them to slip off your hands and result in 
damage to the tool and battery cartridge and a 
personal injury. 

To remove the battery cartridge, slide it from the tool 
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 tool, causing injury to 
you or someone around you. 

• 

Do not install the battery cartridge forcibly. If the 
cartridge does not slide in easily, it is not being 
inserted correctly. 

Battery protection system 

The tool is equipped with a battery protection system. 
This system automatically cuts off power to the motor to 
extend battery life. 
The tool will automatically stop during operation if the 
tool and/or battery are placed under one of the following 
conditions: 

 
 
 

• 

Overloaded: 

The tool is operated in a manner that causes 
it to draw an abnormally high current. 
In this situation, release the switch trigger on 
the tool and stop the application that caused 
the tool to become overloaded. Then pull the 
switch trigger again to restart. 
If the tool does not start, the battery is 
overheated. In this situation, let the battery 
cool before pulling the switch trigger again. 

• 

Low battery voltage: 

The remaining battery capacity is too low and 
the tool will not operate. If you pull the switch 
trigger, the motor runs again but stops soon. 
In this situation, remove and recharge the 
battery.

when released. 

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.
