Appliance / battery protection
system
The appliance is equipped with an appliance/battery
protection system. This system automatically cuts off
power to the motor to extend appliance and battery life.
The appliance will automatically stop during operation
if the appliance or battery is placed under one of the
following conditions:
Overload protection
When the appliance/battery is operated in a manner
that causes it to draw an abnormally high current, the
appliance automatically stops. In this situation, turn the
appliance off and stop the application that caused the
appliance to become overloaded. Then turn the appli-
ance on to restart.
Overheat protection
On
When the appliance is overheated, the appliance stops
automatically, and both left and right battery indicators
blink. In this situation, let the appliance cool down
before turning the appliance on again.

matically. If the appliance does not run along with the switch opera-
tion, remove the batteries from the appliance and recharge them.
