Lighting up the front lamp
CAUTION:
Do not look in the light or see the
source of light directly.
► Fig.5: 1. Lamp
To turn on the lamp, slightly pull the switch trigger, and
then release it. The lamp goes out approximately 10
seconds after releasing the switch trigger.
NOTICE:
When the tool is overheated, the lamp
flickers. Cool down the tool fully before operating
the tool again.
NOTE: Use a dry cloth to wipe the dirt off the lens of
the lamp. Be careful not to scratch the lens of lamp, or
it may lower the illumination.
Overload warning lamp
► Fig.6: 1. Warning lamp
The warning lamp blinks when the tool is highly loaded.
If the load increases and the tool becomes overloaded,
the tool stops automatically and the warning lamp keeps
on lighting. In this case, release the switch trigger, and
remove the cause of overload, and then restart the tool.
NOTE: When the warning lamp blinks, check the
following points:
• The caulking material is clogged.
• The speed adjusting dial is set to high speed.
• The cutting area of the tip of the cartridge nozzle
or film type package is too small.
Drip preventive function
The motor keeps running for a short time even after the
trigger is released. It releases the pressure of the caulk-
ing material and prevents dripping.

Always be sure that the tool is
switched off and the battery cartridge is removed
