• If the tool is subject to a sudden load
during use that causes the motor to
lock up, the overdischarge preven-
tion sensor may be triggered, and the
battery low warning lamp may flash.
The lamp will stop flashing once you
address the cause of the motor 's
locking up and cycle the trigger.
• The battery protection feature may
activate when a high load is abruptly
placed on the motor, even if ample
battery charge remains. In this case,
both the battery low warning lamp
and LED light will flash.
• If both the battery low warning lamp
and LED light flash, reduce the force
with which you are pushing on the
driver or, if using a drill driver, adjust
the speed switch to a lower setting.
