5. TOOL PREPARATION
Checking the Tool Status
The red/white LEDs and the signal tone together with the electronic control system serves to provide information about the battery charge levels
and the tool.
Red White Signal
LED LED Tone Information Cause
Self-test! If the red LED ashes two times after the battery is inserted, this
2x means the electronic control has performed its self-test satisfactorily.
To perform the self test, rst remove the battery, pull the operating
trigger, then insert a battery into the tool.
Battery is empty! If the red LED displays a steady light for about 20 seconds after a
20s work operation, the battery is empty and needs to be charged.
Service! If the red LED slowly ashes for about 20 seconds upon completion
20s of a work operation, this means maintenance needs to be carried out.
slow ash The tool should be sent to a REHAU authorized service center as soon
as possible.
Battery is empty! If the red LED lights up for 20 seconds and then ashes, this means the
20s+ Service! battery is empty and also that maintenance is due.
20s slow ash
Overheating! If the red LED ashes quickly for about 20 seconds, this means that the
20s fast ash tool is overheated. Allow the device to cool down before using it again.
Compression force! If the red and white LEDs ash once and tool emits a signal tone during
1x 1x the compression step, either the necessary compression force was not
reached or the compression step was manually interrupted. The con-
nection may not have been properly completed and must be inspected.
Compression force! If the red and white LEDs ash three times and tool emits a signal tone
3x 3x Service! during the compression step, then there is a serious malfunction. The
necessary compression force is not being reached when the motor
is running. The connection may not have been properly completed and
must be inspected. The tool should be sent to the REHAU authorized
service center for repair as soon as possible.
Charging the Battery
Refer to the MAKITA instruction manual for charging the battery and safe operation of the battery charger.
