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 if you do not use
it for a long period (more than six months).

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 battery is operated in a manner that causes it
to draw an abnormally high current, the tool
automatically stops and the corresponding error number
is displayed on the display panel. 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 corresponding error number is
displayed on the display panel. 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 and the corresponding error number is
displayed on the display panel. In this case, remove the
battery from the tool and charge the battery.
