• Overloaded:
The tool is operated in a manner that causes
it to draw an abnormally high current.
In this situation, release the switch trigger on
the tool and stop the application that caused
the tool to become overloaded. Then pull the
trigger switch again to restart.
If the tool does not start, the battery is over-
heated. In this situation, let the battery cool
before pulling the switch trigger again.
• Low battery voltage:
The remaining battery capacity is too low
and the tool will not operate. If you pull the
switch trigger, the motor runs again but stops
soon. In this situation, remove and recharge
the battery.
