tery cartridge cool down before charging it.
4. Charge the battery cartridge if you do not use it

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

CAUTION:
• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and the bat-
tery cartridge is removed before adjusting or checking
function on the tool.
Installing or removing battery cartridge (Fig. 1)
CAUTION:
• Always switch off the tool before installing or removing
of the battery cartridge.
• Hold the tool and the battery cartridge firmly when
installing or removing battery cartridge.
Failure to hold the tool and the battery cartridge firmly
may cause them to slip off your hands and result in
damage to the tool and battery cartridge and a per-
sonal injury.
To remove the battery cartridge, slide it from the tool
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. 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.
CAUTION:
• Always install the battery cartridge 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 install the battery cartridge forcibly. If the car-
tridge does not slide in easily, it is not being inserted
correctly.
Battery protection system
The battery cartridge is equipped with the protection sys-
tem, which automatically cuts off the output power for its
long service life.
The tool may stop during operation when the tool and/or
battery are placed under the following situation. This is
caused by the activation of protection system and does
not show the tool trouble.
• When the tool is overloaded:
At this time, press the "OFF" button and remove
causes of overload and then press the "HIGH/LOW"
button again to restart. When the tool does not work
even after pressing the "HIGH/LOW" button, the bat-
tery power auto-stop is still at work. Charge the bat-
tery cartridge before use.
• When the remaining battery capacity becomes low:
Recharge the battery cartridge.
Switch action (Fig. 2)
To start the tool, simply press the "HIGH/LOW" button. To
switch off, press the "OFF" button. To change the tool
speed, press the "HIGH/LOW" button. The first press on
this button is for high speed and the second press for low
speed and then each press on this button repeats the
high/low speed cycle alternatively.

Battery remaining capacity indicator (only for
models with Battery BL3622A)
Battery BL3622A is equipped with the battery remaining
capacity indicator. (Fig. 3)
Press the CHECK button to indicate the battery remain-
ing capacity. The indicator lamps will then light for
approx. three seconds.
Indicator lamps
Lighted Off
Blinking
E
• When only the lowermost indicator lamp (next to the
"E") blinks, or when none of the indicator lamps light,
the battery charge has run out, so the tool does not
operate. In these cases, charge the battery or replace
the empty battery with a fully charged one.
• When two or more indicator lamps do not light even
after charging is complete, the battery has reached the
end of its service life.
• When the upper two and lower two indicator lamps light
alternately, the battery may have malfunctioned. Con-
tact your local Makita authorized service center.
NOTE:
• The indicated capacity may be lower than the actual
level during use or immediately after using the tool.
• Depending on the conditions of use and the ambient
temperature, the indication may differ slightly from the
actual capacity.
