NOTE: Depending on the conditions of use and the ambient tem-
perature, the indication may differ slightly from the actual capacity.
NOTE: The first (far left) indicator lamp will blink when

Appliance / battery protection system
The appliance and battery are equipped with the protection
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 automatically. If the appli-
ance 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 dam-
age 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.
