IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

FOR BATTERY CARTRIDGE

1. Before using battery cartridge, read all instruc-

tions and cautionary markings on (1) battery

charger, (2) battery, and (3) product using bat-

tery.

2. Do not disassemble battery cartridge.

3. If operating time has become excessively

shorter, stop operating immediately. It may

result in a risk of overheating, possible burns

and even an explosion.

4. If electrolyte gets into your eyes, rinse them out

with clear water and seek medical attention right

away. It may result in loss of your eyesight.

5. Do not short the battery cartridge:

(1) Do not touch the terminals with any conduc-

tive material.

(2) Avoid storing battery cartridge in a container

with other metal objects such as nails, coins,

etc.

(3) Do not expose battery cartridge to water or

rain.

A battery short can cause a large current flow,

overheating, possible burns and even a break-

down.

6. Do not store the tool and battery cartridge in

locations where the temperature may reach or

exceed 50°C (122°F).

7. Do not incinerate the battery cartridge even if it

is severely damaged or is completely worn out.

The battery cartridge can explode in a fire.

8. Be careful not to drop or strike battery.

9. Do not use a damaged battery.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

Tips for maintaining maximum battery life

1. Charge the battery cartridge before completely

discharged.

Always stop tool operation and charge the bat-

tery 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 tempera-

ture at 10°C – 40°C (50°F – 104°F). Let a hot bat-

tery cartridge cool down before charging it.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

CAUTION:

• Always be sure that the cleaner is switched off and the

battery cartridge is removed before adjusting or check-

ing function on the cleaner.

Installing or removing battery cartridge (Fig. 1)

• Always switch off the cleaner before insertion or

removal of the battery cartridge.

• To remove the battery cartridge, withdraw it from the

cleaner while sliding the button on the front of the car-

tridge as shown in the figure.

• To insert the battery cartridge, align the tongue on the

battery cartridge with the groove in the housing and slip

it into place. Always insert it all the way until it locks in

place with a little click. If you can see the red part on

the upper side of the button, it is not locked completely.

Insert it fully until the red part cannot be seen. If not, it

may accidentally fall out of the cleaner, causing injury

to you or someone around you.

• Do not use force when inserting the battery cartridge. If

the cartridge does not slide in easily, it is not being

inserted correctly.

Battery protection system

The cleaner is equipped with the protection system,

which automatically cuts off the output power for its long

service life.

The cleaner stops during operation when the cleaner

and/or battery are placed under the following situation.

This is caused by the activation of protection system and

does not show the cleaner trouble.

• When the cleaner is overloaded:

At this time, press the “OFF” button and remove

causes of overload and then press the “HIGH/LOW”

button again to restart.

• When battery cells get hot: (refer to the note below.)

If any operation of the “HIGH/LOW” button and the

“OFF” button, the motor will remain stopped. At this

time, stop use of the cleaner and cool or charge the

battery cartridge after removing it from the cleaner.

• When the remaining battery capacity gets low:

If any operation of the “HIGH/LOW” button and the

“OFF” button, the motor will remain stopped. At this

time, remove the battery cartridge from the cleaner

and charge it.

NOTE:

• This temperature-sensitive protection is applied only

when the cleaner is used with a battery cartridge with a

star mark. (Fig. 2)
