tions and cautionary markings on (1) battery
charger, (2) battery, and (3) product using bat-
tery.

Tips for maintaining maximum battery
life
1. Charge the battery cartridge before completely
discharged.
Always stop tool operation and charge the bat-
tery cartridge when you notice less tool power.
2. Never recharge a fully charged battery cartridge.
Overcharging shortens the battery service life.
3. Charge the battery cartridge with room tempera-
ture at 10°C - 40°C (50°F - 104°F). Let a hot bat-
tery cartridge cool down before charging it.
4. Charge the Lithium-ion battery cartridge when
you do not use it for more than six months.
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
CAUTION:
Always be sure that the tool is switched off and the
battery cartridge is removed before adjusting or
checking function on the tool.
Installing or removing battery cartridge
Always switch off the tool before insertion or
removal of the battery cartridge.
To remove the battery cartridge, withdraw it from
the tool while sliding the button on the front of the
cartridge.
To insert the battery cartridge, align the tongue on
the battery cartridge with the groove in the housing
and slip it into place. Always insert it all the way
until it locks in place with a little click. If you can see
the red part on the upper side of the button, it is not
locked completely. Insert it fully until the red part
cannot be seen. If not, it may accidentally fall out of
the tool, causing injury to you or someone around
you.
Do not use force when inserting the battery
cartridge. If the cartridge does not slide in easily, it
is not being inserted correctly.
