NOTE: Depending on the conditions of use and the
ambient temperature, the indication may differ slightly
from the actual capacity.
NOTE: The first (far left) indicator lamp will blink when
the battery protection system works.
Tool / battery protection system
The tool is equipped with a tool/battery protection sys-
tem. This system automatically cuts off power to the
motor to extend tool and battery life. The tool will auto-
matically stop during operation if the tool or battery is
placed under one of the following conditions:
Overload protection
When the tool/battery is operated in a manner that
causes it to draw an abnormally high current, the tool
automatically stops without any indication. In this sit-
uation, turn the tool off and stop the application that
caused the tool to become overloaded. Then turn the
tool on to restart.
Overheat protection
When the tool/battery is overheated, the tool stops
automatically. Let the tool cool down before turning the
tool on again.
Overdischarge protection
When the battery capacity is not enough, the tool stops
automatically. In this case, remove the battery from the
tool and charge the battery.
Releasing protection lock
When the protection system works repeatedly, the tool
is locked.
In this situation, the tool does not start even if turning
the tool off and on. To release the protection lock,
remove the battery, set it to the battery charger and wait
until the charging finishes.
Shaft lock
Press the shaft lock to prevent spindle rotation when
installing or removing accessories.

NOTICE:
Never actuate the shaft lock when the
spindle is moving. The tool may be damaged.
Switch action
CAUTION:
Before installing the battery car-
tridge into the tool, always check to see that the
switch lever actuates properly and returns to the
"OFF" position when released.
CAUTION:
For your safety, this tool is
equipped with lock-off lever which prevents the
tool from unintended starting. NEVER use the tool
if it runs when you simply pull the switch lever
without pulling the lock-off lever. Return the tool
to our authorized service center for proper repairs
BEFORE further usage.
CAUTION:
Do not pull the switch lever hard
without pulling the lock-off lever. This can cause
switch breakage.
CAUTION:
NEVER tape down or defeat pur-
pose and function of lock-off lever.
► Fig.4: 1. Lock-off lever 2. Switch lever
To prevent the switch lever from being accidentally
pulled, a lock-off lever is provided.
To start the tool, pull the lock-off lever toward the opera-
tor and then pull the switch lever.
To stop the tool, release the switch lever.
Accidental re-start preventive
function
When installing the battery cartridge while pulling the
switch lever, the tool does not start.
To start the tool, first release the switch lever. Then pull
the lock-off lever, and pull the switch lever.
Active Feedback sensing
Technology
The tool electronically detects situations where the
wheel or accessory may be at risk to be bound. In the
situation, the tool is automatically shut off to prevent
further rotation of the spindle (it does not prevent
kickback).
To restart the tool, switch off the tool first, remove the
cause of sudden drop in the rotation speed, and then
turn the tool on.
Soft start feature
Soft start feature reduces starting reaction.
