○ When the pilot lamp fl ickers in red (at 0.2-seconds
intervals), check for and take out any foreign objects in
the charger's battery connector. If there are no foreign
objects, it is probable that the battery or charger is
malfunctioning. Take it to your authorized Service
Center.
○ Since the built-in micro computer takes about 3 seconds
to confi rm that the battery being charged with chargers
are taken out, wait for a minimum of 3 seconds before
reinserting it to continue charging. If the battery is
reinserted within 3 seconds, the battery may not be
properly charged.

SELECT OPERATION MODE
Pressing the changeover switch allows the selection of
rotation speed and the auto stop function.
○ Rotation speed (Low mode/Normal mode) (Fig. 12)
Select either Low mode or Normal mode and operate the
tool in the selected speed.
○ Auto stop mode (on/off ) (Fig. 13)
This product is equipped with an auto stop function to
support continuous drilling work. The function features a
memory mode for storing the work time for drilling from
switch ON to switch OFF, and an auto stop mode that
automatically stops the motor from the second drilling
onward should the work exceed the stored work time
while the switch is ON.
AUTO STOP FUNCTION
In selection mode, pressing the button for longer than two
seconds will move to memory mode. (Fig. 13)
(At the same time the auto stop lamp will blink.)
Conduct drilling when the auto stop lamp is fl ashing. The
time between switching ON and switching OFF is stored by
the tool.
(At the same time, the auto stop lamp will light up.)
Conduct drilling when the auto stop lamp is fl ashing.
Continuous drilling is possible as the memory storage time
will be recorded by the tool until the auto stop function's auto
stop mode is cancelled.
The auto stop function is cancelled by pressing the
changeover switch once again for over two seconds.
(At the same time, the auto stop lamp will switch off .)
