firmly may cause them to slip off your hands and
result in damage to the tool and battery cartridge
and a personal injury.
To remove the battery cartridge, slide it from the tool
while sliding the button on the front of the cartridge.
To install the battery cartridge, align the tongue on the
battery cartridge with the groove in the housing and slip it
into place. Insert it all the way until it locks in place with a
little click. If you can see the red indicator on the upper
side of the button, it is not locked completely.
Always install the battery cartridge fully until the red
indicator cannot be seen. If not, it may accidentally
fall out of the tool, causing injury to you or someone
around you.
Do not install the battery cartridge forcibly. If the
cartridge does not slide in easily, it is not being

Lithiumion batteries with a star marking are equipped
with a protection system. This system automatically cuts
off power to the tool to extend battery life.
The tool will automatically stop during operation if the tool
and/or battery are placed under one of the following
conditions:
Overloaded:
The tool is operated in a manner that causes
it to draw an abnormally high current.
In this situation, slide the slide switch on the
tool toward the "O (OFF)" position and stop
the application that caused the tool to become
overloaded. Then slide the slide switch
toward the "I (ON)" position again to restart.
If the tool does not start, the battery is
overheated. In this situation, let the battery
cool before sliding the slide switch toward the
"I (ON)" position again.
Low battery voltage:
The remaining battery capacity is too low and
the tool will not operate. In this situation,
remove and recharge the battery.
(Only for battery cartridges with "B" at the end of the
model number.)
