WARNING
PLEASE READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY AND KEEP FOR FUTURE REFERENCE
5
the guidelines of this Instruction manual,
discontinue use immediately and have it
checked.
The battery pack is an integral
component of these tools and is fitted
with thermal safety devices. Running
the tool at close to maximum load, or
continual resetting of the overload, will
cause the battery pack to overheat. When
a pre-set cell temperature is detected,
the battery pack will automatically stop
operating and will not restart until it has
cooled to a safe level. Should this occur,
DO NOT
force-cool the pack by placing
in a freezer or similar. Allow the battery
pack time to cool naturally.
Avoid overloading the tool during
operation. The tool will stop automatically
if overloaded. Overload may occur for a
number of reasons, including when the
tool is pushed too hard, or when using an
attachment greater than what is specified.
NOTE:
The battery is more susceptible to
overloading when at the lower end of the
charge.
The low voltage cut-out feature will
operate when the voltage drops below
a pre-set value. When this occurs, the
tool will stop operating automatically.
Either insert another charged battery into
the tool or recharge the existing battery
before proceeding.
NOTE:
Attempting to restart the tool in
this condition, without either recharging
the battery or installing a battery with
charge, will lead to the tool restarting and
stopping again after only a few seconds
of operation.
These safety devices have been fitted for
the safety, reliability and life of the tools.
WHEN TO CHARGE THE BATTERY.
The Battery should be fully charged
before use.
After it has been used and charged a few
times, the battery should be charged for
1 hour using the fast 1 hour charger.
The battery pack can be recharged at any
time during use, provided the pack has
not overheated.
If the battery pack starts to cut out
due to low voltage, or tasks previously
undertaken can no longer be performed,
it is recommended to stop using the tool
and recharge the battery.
For storage, it is recommended to
recharge the battery between 50% and
75% charge.
