Tips for maintaining maximum battery life
1. Charge the battery cartridge before completely
discharged.
Always stop tool operation and charge the battery
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
temperature at 10°C - 40°C (50°F - 104°F). Let a hot
battery cartridge cool down before charging it.
4. Charge the battery cartridge once in every six

time.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

WARNING:
• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and the
battery cartridge is removed before adjusting or
checking functions on the tool. Failure to switch off
and remove the battery cartridge may result in serious
personal injury from accidental start-up.
Installing or removing battery cartridge
CAUTION:
• 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
6
them to slip off your hands and result in damage to the
tool and battery cartridge and a personal injury.
• Always switch off the tool before installing or removing
of the battery cartridge. (Fig. 2)
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. Always 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. Install
it 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.
NOTE:
• Do not use force when installing the battery cartridge. If
the cartridge does not slide in easily, it is not being
inserted correctly.
Power switch action
WARNING:
• Before inserting the battery cartridge in the tool,
always check to see that the switch trigger
actuates properly and returns to the "OFF"
position when released. Do not pull the switch
trigger hard without pressing in the lock-off button.
This can cause switch breakage. Operating a tool
with a switch that does not actuate properly can lead to
loss of control and serious personal injury. (Fig. 3)
To prevent the switch trigger from being accidentally
pulled, a lock-off button is provided.
To start the tool, press in the lock-off button and pull the
switch trigger. The tool speed is increased by increasing
pressure on the switch trigger. Release the switch trigger

• Always check the direction of rotation before operation.
• Use the reversing switch only after the tool comes to a
complete stop. Changing the direction of rotation
before the tool stops may damage it.

Two speed ranges can be preselected with the speed
change switch.
Flipping the speed change switch lever to the "1" position
will set the tool to the low speed range and the "2" position
will set the tool to the high speed range.
