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 (Lithium-ion battery
with star marking) (Fig. 2)
Lithium-ion batteries with a star marking are equipped
with a protection system. This system automatically cuts
off power to the tool to extend battery life.
The tool will automatically stop during operation if the
tool and/or battery are placed under one of the following
conditions:
• Overloaded:
The tool is operated in a manner that causes it to draw
an abnormally high current.
In this situation, release the trigger switch on the tool
and stop the application that caused the tool to become
overloaded. Then pull the trigger switch again to
restart.
If the tool does not start, the battery is overheated. In
this situation, let the battery cool before pulling the trig-
ger switch again.
• Low battery voltage:
The remaining battery capacity is too low and the tool
will not operate. In this situation, remove and recharge
the battery.
Indicating the remaining battery capacity (Fig. 3)
(Only for battery cartridges with "B" at the end of the
model number.)
Press the check button on the battery cartridge to indi-
cate the remaining battery capacity. The indicator lamps
light up for few seconds.

Switch action (Fig. 4)
CAUTION:
• Before installing the battery cartridge into the tool,
always check to see that the switch trigger actuates
properly and returns to the "OFF" position when
released.
To start the tool, simply pull the switch trigger. The tool
speed is increased by increasing pressure on the switch
trigger. Release the switch trigger to stop.
NOTE:
• The tool will stop three minutes after pulling the switch
trigger.
Lighting up the front lamp (Fig. 5 & 6)
CAUTION:
• Do not look in the lamp or see the source of lamp
directly.
Every time the lamp button
pressed, the lamp status is alternatively changed from
the ON to the OFF and from the OFF to the ON.
With the lamp button in the ON status, pull the switch trig-
ger to turn on the lamp. To turn off, release it and the
lamp goes out approximately 10 seconds after releasing.
With the lamp button in the OFF status, even if the trigger
is pulled, the lamp will not light on.
NOTE:
• To make sure the status of lamp, pull the trigger. When
the lamp lights up by pulling the switch trigger, the lamp
switch is in the ON status. When the lamp does not
come on, the lamp switch is in the OFF status.
• During the operation of switch trigger, the lamp status
cannot be changed.
