FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

CAUTION:
Always be sure that the tool is switched off and the
•
battery cartridge is removed before adjusting or
checking function on the tool.
Installing or removing battery cartridge
Fig.1
Always switch off the tool before insertion or
•
removal of the battery cartridge.
To remove the battery cartridge, withdraw it from
•
the tool while sliding the button on the front of the
cartridge.
To insert the battery cartridge, align the tongue on
•
the battery cartridge with the groove in the housing
and slip it into place. Always insert it all the way
until it locks in place with a little click. If you can
see the red part on the upper side of the button, it
is not locked completely. Insert it fully until the red
part cannot be seen. If not, it may accidentally fall
out of the tool, causing injury to you or someone
around you.
Do not use force when inserting the battery
•
cartridge. If the cartridge does not slide in easily, it
is not being inserted correctly.
