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

Overload protection

When the battery is operated in a manner that causes
it to draw an abnormally high current, the tool automati-
cally stops. In this situation, turn the tool off and stop the
application that caused the tool to become overloaded.
Then turn the tool on to restart.

Overheat protection

When the tool or battery is overheated, the tool stops
automatically and the lamp blinks. In this case, let the
tool and battery cool before turning the tool on again.
