The tool or machine does not operate if the charger is connected
to the unit. If the main power lamp blinks in red, charging does
not start because the unit is overheated or the temperature of the
unit is low. In this case, cool down the unit, or warm up the unit.
If the main power lamp blinks in red and green alternately,
unplug the charger and remove the socket of the charger, and
then clean the charger by removing dust from the AC inlet,
intake vent, and exhaust vent. If the main power lamp keeps
blinking in red and green alternately after cleaning the charger,
ask your local Makita Authorized Service Center for repair.
