Battery/motor protection system
The battery cartridge and tool are provided with
protection devices that will automatically reduce or cut
off power to the tool when overload situations develop
that may cause damage to the tool or battery cartridge.
If the tool becomes overloaded but not locked up a
protector is provided to reduce the revolutions to protect
the motor. In this case the two indicator lamps described
in the table below do not light or blink.
All other protection functions can be identified by the
indicator lamps described in the table below.
