Electronic control
○ Soft-start
○ Overload protection
This protection feature cuts off the power to the motor in
the event of overloading of motor or a conspicuous
reduction in rotational speed during operation.
When the overload protection feature has been
activated, the motor may stop.
In this case, release the tool switch and eliminate
causes of overloading.
After that you can use it again.
○ Overheat protection
This protection feature cuts off the power to the motor
and stops the power tool in the event of overheating of
motor during operation.
When the overheat protection feature has been
activated, the motor may stop.
In this case, release the tool switch and cool it down in a
few minutes.
After that you can use it again.

CHARGING
Before using the power tool, charge the battery as follows.
<UC18YSL3>
1. Connect the charger's power cord to the
receptacle.
When connecting the plug of the charger to a
receptacle, the charge indicator lamp will blink in red.
(See Table 1)
2. Insert the battery into the charger.
Firmly insert the battery into the charger as shown in
Fig. 10 (on page 3).
3. Charging
When inserting a battery in the charger, charging will
commence and the charge indicator lamp will blink in
blue.
When the battery becomes fully recharged, the charge
indicator lamp will light up in green. (See Table 1)

(1) Charge indicator lamp indication
The indications of the charge indicator lamp will be as
shown in Table 1, according to the condition of the
charger or the rechargeable battery.

about 2 sec.) (PURPLE)
NOTE
*1 If the red lamp continues to blink even after the charger
has been attached, check to confirm that the battery
has been fully inserted.
*2 Battery overheated. Unable to charge.
Although charging will start once the battery has cooled
down even when left in situ, the best practice is to
remove the battery and allow it to cool down in a
shaded, well-ventilated location before charging.
*3 Malfunction in the battery or the charger
–
Fully insert the battery.
–
Check to confirm that no foreign matter is stuck to
the battery mount or terminals. If there are no
1
foreign objects, it is probable that the battery or
charger is malfunctioning. Take it to your authorized
Service Center.
○ When the battery charger has been continuously used,
the battery charger will be heated, thus constituting the
cause of the failures. Once the charging has been
completed, give 5 minutes rest until the next charging.
