Shaft lock
CAUTION:
Never actuate the shaft lock when the spindle is
moving. The tool may be damaged.
Press the shaft lock to prevent spindle rotation when
installing or removing accessories.
Switch action
CAUTION:
Before inserting the battery cartridge into the tool,
always check to see that the slide switch actuates
properly and returns to the OFF position when the
rear of the slide switch is depressed.
Switch can be locked in ON position for ease of
operator comfort during extended use. Apply cau-
tion when locking tool in ON position and maintain
firm grasp on tool.
To start the tool, slide the slide switch toward the I (ON)
position. For continuous operation, press the front of the
slide switch to lock it.
To stop the tool, press the rear of the slide switch, then
slide it toward the O (OFF) position.
Indication lamp with multi function
Indication lamps are located in two positions.
When the battery cartridge is inserted on the tool with the
slide switch positioned in the O (OFF) position, the indi-
cation lamp flickers quickly for approximately one sec-
ond. If it does not flicker so, the battery cartridge or
indication lamp has broken.
- Overload protection
- When the tool is overloaded, the indication
lamp lights up. When the load on the tool is
reduced, the lamp goes out.
- If the tool continues to be overloaded and the
indication lamp continues to light up for approx-
imately two seconds, the tool stops. This pre-
vents the motor and its related parts from being
damaged.
- In this case, to start the tool again, move the
slide switch to the O (OFF) position once and
then to the I (ON) position.
- Battery cartridge replacing signal
- When the remaining battery capacity gets
small, the indicator lamp lights up during opera-
tion earlier than enough capacity battery use.
- Accidental re-start preventive function
- Even if the battery cartridge is inserted on the
tool with the slide switch in the I (ON) position,
the tool does not start. At this time, the lamp
flickers slowly and this shows that the acciden-
tal re-start preventive function is at work.
- To start the tool, first slide the slide switch
toward the O (OFF) position and then slide it
toward the I (ON) position.
ASSEMBLY
CAUTION:
Always be sure that the tool is switched off and the
battery cartridge is removed before carrying out any
work on the tool.
