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.

conditions. In some conditions, the indicator lights up.

draw an abnormally high current, the tool automatically
stops without any indications. 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.

cally and the battery indicator shows following state. In
