To remove the battery cartridge, slide it from the
•
tool while sliding the button on the front of the
cartridge.
To install 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 indicator on the upper side of the
button, it is not locked completely. Install it fully
until the red indicator 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 installing the battery
•
cartridge. If the cartridge does not slide in easily, it
is not being inserted correctly.

the tool to become overloaded. Then pull the
trigger switch again to restart.
If the tool does not start, the battery is
