Panasonic EY6105 - Manual (Page 5)

CAUTION:
• Test the setting before actual operation.
Set the scale at this mark ( ).
CAUTION:
• Check the speed selector switch
before use.
• Use at low speed when strong force
is needed during operation. (Using at
high speed while a strong force is
applied may cause a motor
breakdown.)
*See in SPECIFICATIONS "RECOMMENDED
SPEED SELECTION".
• Do not operate the speed selector
switch (LOW-HIGH) while pulling on
the speed control trigger.
This can cause the rechargeable
battery to wear quickly or damage the
internal mechanism of the motor and
gears.
• To eliminate excessive temperature
increase of the tool surface, do not
operate the tool continuously using
two or more battery packs. Tool
needs cool off time before switching
to another pack.
• Do not cover vent holes on body
sides of the body during operation.
Otherwise, the machine function is
adversely affected to cause a failure.
• Do not strain the tool (motor). This
may cause damage to the unit.
• Use the machine in such a way as to
prevent the air flow out of the vent
holes from blowing directly onto your
skin. Otherwise, you may get burnt.

NOTE:
• Use only battery charger EY0005 for
Ni-Cd battery pack EY9005 to
maximize its service life.
• The ambient temperature range is
between 0 °C (32°F) and 40°C
(104 °F).
If the battery pack is used when the
battery temperature is below 0
°C
(32 °F), the tool may fail to function
properly. In that case, charge the
battery until charging is completed for
appropriate functioning of the battery.
Battery Pack Life
The rechargeable batteries have a
limited life. If the operation time becomes
extremely short after recharging, replace
the battery pack with a new one.
For Appropriate use of

Ni-Cd Battery pack (EY9005)
CAUTION:
• Do not operate Forward/ Reverse
lever until the chuck comes to a
complete stop. Shifting during rotation
of the chuck may damage the tool.
• The trigger switch may not be locked,
when the lever is set to its center
position (Neutral).
• Check the direction of rotation before
use.
Speed Selection
Choose a low or high speed to suit the
use.
The more the speed control trigger is
pulled, the higher the speed becomes.
Charging: Battery charger (EY0005)
NOTE:
• When you charge the battery pack for
the first time, or after prolonged
storage, charge it for about 24 hours
to bring the battery up to full capacity.
1. Plug the charger into the AC outlet.
NOTE:
• Sparks may be produced when the
plug is inserted into the AC power
supply, but this is not a problem in
terms of safety.
2. Insert the battery pack firmly into the
charger.
3. During charging, the charging lamp will
be lit.
When charging is completed, an internal
electronic switch will automatically be
triggered to prevent overcharging.
• Charging will not start if the battery pack
is too warm (for example, immediately
after heavy-duty operation).
The charging lamp will be red flashing
until the battery cools down. Charging
will then begin automatically.
4. When charging is completed, the charging
lamp will start flashing quickly.
5. If the charging lamp does not light
immediately after the charger is plugged
in, or if after the standard charging time
the lamp does not go off, consult an
authorized dealer.
NOTE:
• When charging a cool battery pack
(below 5 °C (41°F)) in a warm place,
Ieave the battery pack at the place
and wait for more than one hour to
warm up the battery to the level of the
ambient temperature.
Otherwise battery pack may not be
fully charged.
• Cool down the charger when charging
more than two battery packs
consecutively.
• Do not insert your fingers into contact
hole, when holding charger or any
other occasions.
