OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
LOW CAPACITY WARNING
If one LED on the POWER BAR begins to flash, the battery
pack is charged to less than 10% of its capacity, and should be
recharged.
Unlike other types of battery packs, lithium-ion battery packs
deliver fade-free power for their entire run time. The tool will not
experience a slow, gradual loss of power as it is used.
The power delivered to the tool will drop quickly when the battery
pack is at the end of its run time and needs to be charged. When
the battery pack is completely discharged, the POWER BAR will
begin to display four flashing LED lights. When this happens,
remove the tool from the workpiece and charge the battery pack
as needed.
BATTERY PROTECTION
The battery circuitry protects the battery pack from extreme
temperature, over-discharge, and over-charge. To protect the
battery from damage and prolong its life, the battery pack circuitry
will turn off the battery pack if it becomes overloaded or if the
temperature becomes too high during use. This may happen
in extremely high torque, binding, and stalling situations. This
intelligent system will shut down your battery pack if its operating
temperature exceeds 176°F (80°C) and will begin normal
operation when it returns to 32°F (0°C) - 122°F (50°C).
The POWER BAR will display four flashing LED lights if the
circuitry detects a momentary overload. Reset the battery pack
by pressing the POWER BAR button. Press the POWER BAR
button again to display the remaining charge.
NOTE: A significantly reduced run time after fully charging the
battery pack indicates that the batteries are near the end of their
usable life and must be replaced.
