Overload Protection; Overheat Protection - Makita DTWA070 Manual De Instrucciones

Overload protection

When the battery is operated in a manner that causes
it to draw an abnormally high current, the tool automat-
ically 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/battery is overheated, the tool stops
automatically. In this situation, let the tool/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.

► 1. Indicator lamps 2. Check button
NOTE: Depending on the conditions of use and the
ambient temperature, the indication may differ slightly
from the actual capacity.
When charging
When the charging begins, the first (far left) indicating lamp
begins to blink. Then, as charging proceeds, the other lamps
light, one after the other, to indicate the battery capacity.
NOTE: If the indicator lamp does not turn on or blink
when charging, the battery may be faulty. In this case,
ask your local service center.
When using
When the tool is switched on, the lamps will light to
indicate the remaining battery capacity. When the tool is
switched off, the light goes out after approx. 5 seconds.
When pushing the check button with the tool switched
off, the indicator lamps turn on for approx. 5 seconds to
show battery capacity.
If the orange lamp blinks, the tool stops because of little remain-
ing battery capacity (Auto-stop mechanism). Charge the battery
cartridge or use a charged battery cartridge at this time.
When the tool is used with the battery that has not been
used for a long time and is switched on, no lamps may
light up. The tool stops because of little remaining bat-
tery capacity at this time. Charge the battery properly.
