NOTE: Depending on the conditions of use and the
ambient temperature, the indication may differ slightly
from the actual capacity.
Tool / battery protection system
The tool is equipped with a tool/battery protection sys-
tem. This system automatically cuts off power to the
motor to extend tool and battery life. The tool will auto-
matically stop during operation if the tool or battery is
placed under one of the following conditions.
Overload protection
When the tool is operated in a manner that causes it to
draw an abnormally high current, the tool automatically
stops without any indication. In this situation, turn the
tool off and stop the application that caused the tool to
become overloaded. Then turn the tool on to restart.
Overheat protection
When the tool is overheated, the tool stops automati-
cally. Let the tool cool down before turning the tool on
again.
Overdischarge protection
When the battery capacity becomes low, the tool stops
automatically. If the product does not operate even
when the switches are operated, remove the batteries
from the tool and charge the batteries.

foam to come out of air exit before the float works.
Continuing to using in this condition may cause an
electric shock and breakage of the cleaner.
The cleaner has a float mechanism that prevents water
from immersing into the motor when picking up more
than a certain amount of water. When the tank is full
and the cleaner no longer picks up water, switch off the
cleaner and empty the tank.
Carriage handle
When carrying the cleaner, carry it by holding the han-
dle on the head. The handle is retractable at the head
when not in use.
