CAUTION:

Check the speed selector switch

before use.

Use at low speed when high torque is

needed during operation. (Using at high

speed when high torque is required

may cause a motor breakdown.)

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.

* See specifications for “MAXIMUM

RECOMMENDED CAPACITIES”.

CAUTION:

To prevent excessive temperature

increase of the tool surface, do not

operate the tool continuously using

two or more battery packs. The tool

needs cool-off time before switching

to another pack.

Do not close up vent holes on the

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 tool in such a way as to

prevent the air from the body vent

holes from blowing directly onto your

skin. Otherwise, you may get burned.
