Battery tool use and care

1. Recharge only with the charger specified by the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with another battery pack.
2. Use power tools only with specifically designated battery packs. The use of any other battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.
3. When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects, like paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws, or other small metal objects, that can make a connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery terminals together may cause burns or a fire.
4. Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts the eyes, additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.
5. Do not use a battery pack or tool that is damaged or modified. Damaged or modified batteries may exhibit unpredictable behavior resulting in fire, explosion or risk of injury.
6. Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire or excessive temperature. Exposure to fire or temperature above 130 °C may cause an explosion.

Appliance/battery protection system

The appliance is equipped with a 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 or battery is operated in a manner that causes it to draw an abnormally high current, the appliance automatically stops without any indication. In this situation, turn the appliance off and stop the application that caused the appliance to become overloaded. Then turn the appliance on to restart.
• Overheat protection: When the appliance or battery is overheated, the appliance automatically stops. Let the appliance cool down before turning it on again.
• Overdischarge protection: When the battery capacity becomes low, the appliance stops automatically. If the appliance does not operate even when the switches are operated, remove the battery cartridge from the appliance and charge it.

OPERATION

CAUTION: The fan is made from polypropylene resin. Some kind of oil agent or chemicals which deteriorate resin may break the fan and cause an injury.

Starting/stopping the fan
