FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

CAUTION:

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

battery cartridge is removed before adjusting or

checking function on the tool.

Installing or removing battery cartridge

(Fig. 1)

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 (Lithium-ion

battery with star marking) (Fig. 2)

Lithium-ion batteries with a star marking are equipped

with a protection system. This system automatically cuts

off power to the tool 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. In this situation, remove and

recharge the battery.

Indicating the remaining battery capacity

(Only for battery cartridges with “B” at the end of the

model number.) (Fig. 3)

Press the check button on the battery cartridge to indicate

the remaining battery capacity. The indicator lamps light

up for few seconds.

015658

NOTE:

• Depending on the conditions of use and the ambient

temperature, the indication may differ slightly from the

actual capacity.

Switch action

CAUTION:

• Before inserting the battery cartridge into the tool,

always check to see that the switch trigger actuates

properly and returns to the “OFF” position when

released. (Fig. 4)

For your safety, this tool is equipped with a dual switching

system. To turn on the tool, press the lock-off button and

triggers A and B. Release either one of the two pressed

triggers to turn off. The sequence of switching is

unimportant as the tool only starts when both switches are

activated.

Indication lamp (Fig. 5)

Running the tool allows the indication lamp to show the

battery cartridge capacity status.

When the tool is also overloaded and has stopped during

operation, the lamp lights up in red.

Refer to the following table for the status and action to be

taken for the indication lamp.
