If you continue to operate the machine at low

and lock the brake, and then switch the battery
cartridge to a charged one or charge the battery
cartridge. When the remaining battery capacity runs
out, the machine suddenly stops automatically and
this may cause an injury.

the beep sound continues and the support brake

and release the support brake, pull the brake lever
and release the switch trigger. Do not push the
