Tips for maintaining maximum battery life
1. Charge the battery cartridge before completely
discharged.
Always stop tool operation and charge the battery
cartridge when you notice less tool power.
2. Never recharge a fully charged battery cartridge.
Overcharging shortens the battery service life.
3. Charge the battery cartridge with room
temperature at 10°C - 40°C (50°F - 104°F). Let a hot
battery cartridge cool down before charging it.
4. Charge the battery cartridge once in every six
months if you do not use it for a long period of
time.
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
CAUTION:
• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and the
battery cartridge is removed before adjusting or
checking function on the tool.
Installing or removing battery cartridge
(Fig. 1)
• Always switch off the tool before installing or removing
of the battery cartridge.
• To remove the battery cartridge, slide it from the tool
ENC007-7
while sliding the button on the front of the cartridge.
• To install the battery cartridge, align the tongue on the
battery cartridge with the groove in the housing and slip
it into place. Always insert it all the way until it locks in
place with a little click. If you can see the red indicator
on the upper side of the button, it is not locked
completely. Install it fully until the red indicator cannot
be seen. If not, it may accidentally fall out of the tool,
causing injury to you or someone around you.
• Do not use force when installing the battery cartridge. If
the cartridge does not slide in easily, it is not being
inserted correctly.
Safety system
WARNING:
• Make sure all safety systems are in working order
before operation. Failure to do so may cause personal
injuries. (Fig. 2 & 3)
Test safety systems for possible faulty operation before
stapling as follows.
1. Make sure that the tool is not loaded with staples
before the test.
2. The tool accidentally operates if only the trigger is
pulled although the lever is not pulled.
3. The tool does not operate when the trigger is pulled
with the lever pulled.
In case of 2 and 3 above, the safety systems are faulty.
Trigger and lever
WARNING:
• Always be sure that the tool is switched off before
inserting the battery cartridge on the tool. (Fig. 4 & 5)
The tool is provided with lever as a safety system in
addition to the usual trigger.
To fire staples, first pull the lever and then pull the trigger.

CAUTION:
• Always make sure that your fingers are not placed on
the trigger or the lever and the battery cartridge is
removed before carrying out any work on the pin nailer.
