Tips for maintaining maximum battery life

1. Charge the battery cartridge before completely

discharged. Always stop tool operation and charge the battery cartridge when you notice less tool power.

2. Never recharge a fully charged battery car-

tridge. Overcharging shortens the battery service life.

3. Charge the battery cartridge with room tem-

perature at 10 °C - 40 °C (50 °F - 104 °F). Let a hot battery cartridge cool down before charging it.

4. When not using the battery cartridge, remove

it from the tool or the charger.12 ENGLISH FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION CAUTION: Always be sure that the tool is switched o󰀨 and the battery cartridge is removed before adjusting or checking function on the tool. CAUTION: Take care not to trap nger(s) between cleaner and battery as shown in diagram when loading battery. Trappingnger(s)maycause injury. ►Fig.1 Installing or removing battery cartridge CAUTION: Always switch o󰀨 the tool before installing or removing of the battery cartridge. CAUTION: Hold the tool and the battery car- tridge rmly when installing or removing battery cartridge. Failure to hold the tool and the battery cartridgermlymaycausethemtoslipo󰀨yourhands and result in damage to the tool and battery cartridge andapersonalinjury. ►Fig.2: 1. Red indicator 2. Button 3. Battery cartridge 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 as showninthegure,itisnotlockedcompletely. CAUTION: Always install the battery cartridge fully until the red indicator cannot be seen. If not, itmayaccidentallyfalloutofthetool,causinginjuryto you or someone around you. CAUTION: Do not install the battery cartridge forcibly. If the cartridge does not slide in easily, it is not being inserted correctly. Battery protection system The tool is equipped with a battery protection system.

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. Inthissituation,turnthetoolo󰀨andstoptheapplication that caused the tool to become overloaded. Then turn the tool on to restart. Low battery voltage: The remaining battery capacity is too low and the tool will not operate. If you turn the tool on, the motor runs again but stops soon. In this situation, remove and recharge the battery. Indicating the remaining battery capacity Only for battery cartridges with the indicator ►Fig.3: 1. Indicator lamps 2. Check button Press the check button on the battery cartridge to indi- cate the remaining battery capacity. The indicator lamps light up for a few seconds.

About the cyclone attachment Using the cleaner with the cyclone attachment installed reduces the amount of dust that enters the capsule, which helps to prevent the suction force from weaken- ing. In addition, cleaning after use is also simple. CAUTION: Always be sure that the tool is switched o󰀨 and the battery cartridge is removed before carrying out any work on the tool. If the battery cartridge is left inserted, the cleaner may start unexpectedlyandresultininjury. CAUTION: Clean the mesh lter of the cyclone attachment and the lters of the cleaner unit when they become clogged. Continued use in the clogged condition may result in heating or smoke. NOTICE: When the cyclone attachment is attached, do not use the cleaner in the horizontal or upward facing condition. Doing so may cause themeshltertobecomeclogged. NOTICE: Always use the cleaner with the lters installed, even when using the cyclone attach- ment.Usingthecleanerwithouttheltersinstalled may result in a motor malfunction. NOTE: Check that the cyclone attachment, cleaner, and straight pipe are locked properly before use. NOTE: Empty the dust case of the cyclone attach- ment and the capsule of the cleaner when dust has accumulated. Continued use will result in weakened suction force. Disposing of dust When dust has accumulated up to the full line of the dust case, follow the procedure below and dispose of the dust.

2. Dispose of the dust inside the dust case and

remove any dust and powder adhered to the surface of themeshlter.

3. Insert the dust case all the way until the two but-

tons lock with a click. ►Fig.49: 1. Dust case 2. Button (two locations) NOTE: Check that the cyclone attachment, cleaner, andstraightpipeareallrmlyconnectedbefore restarting operation.
