Appliance / battery protection
system
The appliance and battery are equipped with the protec-
tion system. This system automatically cuts off power
to the motor to extend appliance and battery life. The
appliance will automatically stop during operation if the
appliance or battery is placed under one of the following
conditions.
• Overload protection : When the appliance or
battery is operated in a manner that causes it to
draw an abnormally high current, the appliance
automatically stops without any indication. In
this situation, turn the appliance off and stop the
application that caused the appliance to become
overloaded. Then turn the appliance on to restart.
• Overheat protection : When the appliance or
battery is overheated, the appliance automatically
stops. Let the appliance cool down before turning
it on again.
• Overdischarge protection : When the battery
capacity becomes low, the appliance stops auto-
matically. If the appliance does not operate even
when the switches are operated, remove the
battery cartridge from the appliance and charge it.
Protections against other causes
Protection system is also designed for other causes that
could damage the appliance and allows the appliance to
stop automatically. Take all the following steps to clear
the causes, when the appliance has been brought to a
temporary halt or stop in operation.
1. Turn the appliance off, and then turn it on again to
restart.
2. Charge the battery(ies) or replace it/them with
recharged battery(ies).
3. Let the appliance and battery(ies) cool down.
If no improvement can be found by restoring protection
system, then contact your local Makita Service Center.
