Tool / battery protection system
The tool is equipped with a tool/battery protection system. This
system automatically cuts off power to the motor to extend tool
and battery life. The tool will automatically stop during operation if
the tool or battery is placed under one of the following conditions:
Overload protection
When the tool or battery is operated in a manner that
causes it to draw an abnormally high current, the tool auto-
matically stops without any indication. 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.
Overdischarge protection
When the battery capacity is not enough, the tool stops automatically.
In this case, remove the battery from the tool and charge the battery.
Protections against other causes
Protection system is also designed for other causes that could
damage the tool and allows the tool to stop automatically.
Take all the following steps to clear the causes, when the tool
has been brought to a temporary halt or stop in operation.
1. Turn the tool off, and then turn it on again to restart.
2. Charge the battery(ies) or replace it/them with
recharged battery(ies).
3. Let the tool and battery(ies) cool down.
If no improvement can be found by restoring protection
system, then contact your local Makita Service Center.

Selecting the cutting action
This tool can be operated with an orbital or a straight
line (up and down) cutting action. The orbital cutting
action thrusts the jig saw blade forward and increases
cutting speed.
