Trickle charge (Maintenance charge)
If you leave the battery cartridge in the charger to prevent
spontaneous discharging after full charge, the charger will
switch into its “trickle charge (maintenance charge)” mode
and keep the battery cartridge fresh and fully charged.
Tips for maintaining maximum battery life
1. Charge the battery cartridge before completely dis-
charged.
Always stop tool operation and charge the battery car-
tridge 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 temperature at
10°C - 40°C (50°F - 104°F).
Let a hot battery cartridge cool down before charging it.
4. Charge the Nickel Metal Hydride battery cartridge when
you do not use it for more than six months.
Switch action
CAUTION:
• Before inserting 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. Tool speed is
increased by increasing pressure on the switch trigger.
Release the switch trigger to stop.
Electric brake
This tool is equipped with an electric brake. If the tool consis-
tently fails to quickly stop after switch trigger release, have
tool serviced at a Makita service center.
